Our O line played extremely well down the stretch, I'm not sold its a huge need.

We got rid of the weak link in Bell, I don't care what anyone says, Oher was a great pick up and is a upgrade. Over the last several games of the season Stew was pounding it on the ground, Cam was being protected well. Remmers and Norwell looked very good and our O line is still young.

I think people only remember the images of Cam getting beat up early in the year but forget just how good our O line looked the last part of the season. If I remember correctly, Remmers played very well yet people want to replace him. I really think we need to focus on WR heavily in the draft and we might just be set at O line

We really didn't beat any decent teams the last 6 games(that I can remember). Yes we finally have two studs at guard and a guy who shined at RT after basically doing.nothing in the NFL. We need a LT, and not some journeyman guy. I have faith in the staff that this will be addressed, along with the other holes.

Yea people keep saying things like our oline , def, offense, etc got better down the stretch when we simply played terrible teams down the stretch. I thought if we had played philly, Pitt, Baltimore, etc at the end of the season rather than the beginning the game results woulda been basically the same. The only thing I saw legit improvement in is the secondary. We definitely need o-line help, pass rush, WR, and safety help.

Our O-line is extremely tenuous.  LT is arguably the biggest need that we have.  I thought the same thing last year, and it largely proved out.  Now the epiphany of Norwell and Remmers makes me feel a little better---and we may be rolling with Remmers at LT when the season starts---but if we don't draft an LT in this draft, I am going to think that G-man has a screw loose.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
