Between draft/FA, how many new linemen do they need?

Can it really take that long to learn how to be run over every play?

 

There are nuances to how to do so without inadvertently hurting the player running you over or slowing him down on the way to your qb. It looks so easy from the stands or your couch, but that's only because you don't understand everything the professional does.

I think his concussion situation was handled correctly. It's playing through concussion that becomes dangerous

It is fair to point out though that he barely played.

Older guys not being able to stay healthy doesn't bother me that much. It's expected. Young guys concern me.

I just feel like if we're going to make any attempt to salvage/prolong Cam's career here, I don't see how the very top priority could be anything other than putting a solid line in front of him, not a line that could be good or might be good if x y and z happen, but doing everything within reason we possibly can to ensure he doesn't get hurt again next year due to bad line play. However many new linemen that takes and whether it's in the draft or FA, get it done.

Every other roster consideration is secondary to this if we keep Cam imo.

    • well, players dictating things only works if you have the right collection of players to dictate things.  and in all honesty, not sure if we can answer if we do or don't as fans given......there are no Thomas Davis types around that we know are actually about X and Y (based on years showing it).  Collective team is too new to us to know what these dudes are really about in terms of players carrying the burden of culture. 
    • Moore can be put in one of the vet spots on IR. No one will be checking for him at the start of the season. But I would be very perturbed if we tried to go all Gettlemagic and stash an obvious talent like Horn on practice squad like we did Butker. If we can get through this year, next year it will be obvious Moore and AT will be gone, starting namely with AT's contract.  
    • Culture change comes from the top down, not from drafting a 3 and no D guard. I doubt Lamelo is gonna take his cues from this 20yr old kid lol. If Brandon Miller couldn’t change the culture with how good he is and how much he hustles on both ends, Kon Knueppel sure as hell ain’t changing it. Ace Bailey by all accounts is also a great teammate and hard worker, btw, who was drafted by a team he supposedly didn’t want to go to yet he immediately bought in. And he’s got actual length and tools on both ends of the floor. I feel this pick is going to age like milk rather quickly.
