I've been nervous about it since 2 years ago. This o line has been very inconsistent, penalized, and full of injuries

Nate is a smart dude and knows football.
And he is 100% correct in that the OL was massively overrated last year.
They couldn't get a legit LG cobbled together, Tyron was injured again, La'el was out then rusty.
And to top it off it was the worst season of Martin's career as he struggled with injuries a bit to look like "only" a top 5 OG.

All that said, Dallas FO clearly saw that issue and used their top pick on the position group.

And it is tough to suggest OL is an issue this year BEFORE pads even come in.
So let's see how it goes in 3 weeks.
But to me this is an above average group that can quickly fall to average.
It's pass blocking has been propped up by Zeke and it's run blocking fell off a cliff last year.
BUT the potential is there with good health to emerge as a top 5 OL.
