That's why I have zero hope for it. But spite isn't logical. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make DL great and LBs would usually look good. Same with OL and RB. Keep focus on LOS. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An elite front 4 on defense will make for a really strong back 7. I know this is the FA thread, but if we happen to find ourselves picking #2 and in a trade down scenario I’m inclined to think we should strongly push for a top OL or DL to be a part of the trade compensation. Brian Burns from CAR would be a great target for this IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its mor likely we get all picks in return 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WindyCity Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Sign Elgton Jenkins to play LG… sign Conklin to play RT… draft a C in round 3. Enough the bums on the OL. Get Whitehair, Patrick, Rieff, Mustipher, Leatherwood… away from my franchise QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dll2000 Posted December 23, 2022 Author Share Posted December 23, 2022 We passed on Tunsil who miraculously fell to us in draft because of weed of all things. Then passed on Conklin in open FA in his prime. To add insult in that draft we traded up and still didn’t take him. He only turned into all best players on Miami and is a great LT now. We traded up for Montgomery due to dire need because we passed on Kareem Hunt who also ironically went to Cleveland. We could have used those picks on trades or OTs in draft. Our OL problems are mostly self inflicted by Pace who never valued OT position for whatever reason until his last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmike90 Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Well both those guys getting resigned sucks…only good thing is neither contract is insane…actually surprised that their agents allowed them to sign them and not just hit free agency…it does set the top end for the OL market outside of Orlando Brown (who I would have no interest in).
