Slightly better than last year's trash? Better protection for Baker and run blocking be damned? Just above average and upgrade the right guard? One much better tackle and a little better stiff for the other side? Point is I don't see how we can fix both sides without leaving bad roster holes elsewhere Thank you. I think we are copying the 2000’s Colts and current Chiefs model of being offensive dominant and making it about the QB. So we need our OT’s to be very good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could come close ish if the nerds spend the money. Assuming these Free agents would come here... 1. Jack Conklin - RT 2. Anthony Harris - Safety 3. Jordan Phillips - DT Draft: 1. Andrew Thomas - LT 2. Antoine Winfield - Safety 3. Robert Hunt - RG That's a great start. Still need another edge rusher, linebacker (or 2) and a TE. So we gotta sign some more guys than I mentioned and draft to fill some holes/get depth in the later rounds. I am all about fixing the O line so we can better utilize Chubb, Beckham, Njoku and Landry and give Baker more time and protection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reginaldm9 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Ezra Cleveland kinda rules. Get him in an NFL strength and conditioning program and he's our RT forever. I like him or Antoine Winfield in round 2. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FGK Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 I would just like to say it is another idiot move from Dorsey to have allowed the Texans to put the rider in the trade that their lowest 3rd round pick goes to us for Johnson. That 10ish spot swing isn't crazy important, but it's just another failure to pay attention to the nuances that ticks me off. If you can't correctly swindle BoB and their imaginary GM, who can you swindle? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie man Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 I think Kenneth Murray might be a player in the 2nd round for us. I think he’d be a strong option at ILB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Becton is not the best LT. Thomas was the best LT in college, he was better Becton. Becton is a monster of a human but Thomas actually has longer arms, longer wingspan and Is a lot more technically sound than Becton. Becton played in a far weaker conference and gave up more pressure in less pass protection snaps than Thomas and Wills. Yeah Wills was a RT in college only because Tua is a lefty. Needed him to protect his blindside. Everyone loves Wirf and he was a RT. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might not have the highest ceiling like Becton or Wirfs but I don’t see those dudes reaching that. If Wills was a LT he prolly be me #1 but I just worry about transitioning from RT to LT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
