Offensive line is abysmal.

I know, I was just saying that our current line was what was planned and hoped for by the staff.  It’s not because guys retired or someone got hurt.  
The fact that both situations where “planned” is embarrassing.  
 

Agreed. This OL looks like what most of us fully expected it to look like.

Man wish we had two promising rookies waiting in the wi.............................................oh wait.

I just don’t get this notion. It was a third round pick and a sixth round pick. If they honestly looked better in practice you think they wouldn’t be playing?

How the fug is slater helping Paradis??

Option to move elf (shutters) or Erving to center. Both have played C before. Honestly both shifting in a spot likely makes them play up as they really don't play very well in the positions they are being asked to play in.

I don't understand how some of you guys are calling for the two rookies Christensen and Brown to start. Maybe the coaches don't put them in because they would actually play worse than what are current starters are doing? It says a lot when you're not even activated to the active roster on game day. These coaches see and evaluate the players on a daily basis, I'm sure if they thought a rookie was better they would play them.

The GM and Coach drafted them, right ?

you mean, they didn’t think they were good enough to play knowing it’s a 17 game season and injuries happen

…and then seeing them in training camp,  continue to keep them on the roster 

there are  53 spots on a Nfl roster.  If a player makes the cut. That player should be able to play the position 

pro football, not college or high school

    • While I really hope things pan out for the young man, sometimes you've got to make a calculated guess on your returns. I wanted so bad to see us use our first round pick on a LB, C or TE this season, but I think this one injury changes everything. I might suggest taking the best and the second best OTs available in the draft with our first and second round picks. The injury to Icky really makes the first one a good choice and an affordable one. And Moton, who is long in the tooth, needs someone in the wings behind him.  This also means that BC is going to need to get a contract for this upcoming season both as a starter at LT and to train the younger player behind him. Also it means that we need to extend a solid contract to Cade Mays and lock him down as our Center for the next four years. Maybe Icky can recover fully and be a starting LT again, but the odds aren't in his favor. Maybe he could be back in line to play as a guard right as our current starters' contracts wind down. It's not pretty having to spend all your picks and money on the line, but it seems to be the wise investment in light of everything.
    • Unfortunate situation.  if one of the top LTs fall in the draft I think it’s a no brainer draft pick. Then if icky returns he can move to guard and replace one of our highly paid guards that are here now.   
    • I dont really expect anyone to have any character or values when the system doesn't. I would respect those who did though. College Football is losing what little interest I had in it. I wasn't against giving the athletes some control but whatever this system is will kill it over time.
