I mean honestly we keep 9 oline at most. and our top 9 aren't bad. You're likely looking at Elflein and Jordan rounding out the 8/9 spots on that list. I don't think that Daley or Brown make the roster. I also think there's a better than average chance we can upgrade from other teams cuts.

Jordan sucks ass too 😞

Why are we quickly writing off Bozeman after a single game of preseason? Players can have rough games , they’re human. I don’t get it. It’s not like he’s out here costing us Super Bowls with poor blocking. The line will be fine. The ground work has been placed. Rock steady pro bowl RT, super bowl winning RG, C from a team that calls for a premium at every OL spot, 6th overall pick on a pure bully of a LT (although he does need to work on balance, but he’s a rookie, let him have that time), and at LG you’ve got an underplayed player that people have been saying is most improved- with a well renowned OL coach.

I sincerely don’t get this doom and gloom. We need more glass half full going on in this fanbase.

I'm not sure that saying that Mays could be our future at C is writing Bozeman off. I feel like this thread is a positive thread, so I'm not sure why you're confused. I'm assuming Bozeman is going to start, but he's just looked average to me so far, but average is obviously better than what we've had recently. I just think that Mays has the potential to surplant him in the near future. I don't understand why you feel that's a negative.

Not the entire thread but I’ve noticed in other threads and some comments on here that poof- Bozeman is done. I’m actually also really high on Mays too. Wondered why his draft stock dipped like it did.

He's was a guard forced to play tackle on a bad Tennessee team with a bad offensive scheme and missed some time due to injury.

Out of sight out of mind. Bozeman is hurt so he's out of sight and out of mind.

Mays is a bright spot in an otherwise clusterfug of bad depth in Jordan, Daley, Brown, Elflein, Tecklenburg, Horton, and Erving.

depth almost completely across the board is this teams biggest weakness, but at least this team looks like it could field starter quality players at every position for once.

It's pretty obvious what we're doing with our o-line. This is more of a run blocking o-line built for CMC. The plan is probably to play action pass to CMC once he gets going, and then throw out of that. We're going to try to maul teams with monsters like Ickey and Moton, and in the middle we'll use violence pulling like you saw in the clip in this thread. That can lead to injuries but also set CMC on fire for big gains. Smashing into guy leading with your head and going flying to the turf does not make for a long career, put it that way.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      Bryce averaged 208 yards per game with a 61% completion since coming back.  How is that top 10?

      Actually,  what lines up with your ideas he is too short or small to be successful.? His passing completions or total yards? Bryce is going into his 13th game with a legitimate offense and good offensive coach. And during that time he went from the worst qb in the league to top 10 by the end of the year based on game production against a number of playoff teams.  And he showed that he can lead comebacks and score under pressure at the end of the game and overtime. He stayed cool under pressure and was one of the best against the blitz by year end. That is the holy grail in quarterback traits and Bryce went from crumbling under pressure to stepping up and delivering strikes down the field. Maybe it is me but those kind of qualities far out weigh a few inches or a few pounds here and there.  Everyone holds their breath when he get whacked by a 350lb linemen and exhales when he magically arises seemingly unfazed. And yeah when he is backpedalling and tosses one out there as if it is random only to float into Thielen's hand it seems just luck. Kind of like Russell Wilson years ago. But I think you are letting your past rob you of enjoying what I hope is happening which is the development of our franchise guy. And for the record I am all about bringing in competition  at all positions including quarterback.
