Darbsk Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 3 hours ago, OldManWillis said: If we run back with basically the same line as last year then get ready for another losing season. Draft has some talent at center and guard, we better draft at least 2 interior OL. There’s some very promising round 3 to round 5 guys like Avila, Patterson, Vorhees (though he may go much later due to the injury) and a few others. I’d be shocked and disappointed if we didn’t get a couple young interior OLine in the draft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for whatever reason they seem fine with James at center. We just have to hope Parham takes a step forward this year and they're able to find another starting caliber guard in the draft. It's pretty clear that they don't value OL that much though and have faith in their ability to coach guys up. TBH I’d be fine with James at centre for half his cost, isn’t he scheduled to make 7 million or something? He doesn’t play that well!

I’d like to see what Munford looks like as a starter too as he’s probably got the highest ceiling. Herron is a sleeper as well, they seem to be decently high on him.

James is alright but if we cut him with a J1 designation we could pay our entire rookie class with the money we were going to pay him, lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 One thing I don’t get about the OL is the DZ/JMD philosophy towards this group doesn’t seem to match the attitude towards the rest of the roster. The OL is clearly substandard. And while these guys are happy moving on from other players they have no connection to or who they don’t perceive to be up to their standards, for some reason they’re letting JAGs like James, Eluemeanor and Parker hang around on the OL. It makes no sense based on their philosophy across the rest of the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes no sense based on their philosophy across the rest of the roster. It's pretty similar to their philosophy at DT, LB, S, and CB. The only positions they've invested into are QB, RB, WR, TE, and DE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYRaider Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 It's still pretty unreal to me that we didn't sign any OL in free agency this year. We just brought back Elu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then this forum would cry about creating more holes. Keep James, restructure if you need the cap. He's serviceable until you find a better option.

No rush to cut James, maybe they land something in the draft and decide to move on in the second wave of FA. Still a lot of moving parts before Sept.
