No burrow available...upgrade OL.

Who are you wanted to draft to replace who on the OL?? We have a rookie LT who looks the part and Moton is a lock for RT with his contract and performance. So you are spending a first to upgrade one of the 2 solid OGs or a C? If we extend Bozeman a C isn’t needed.

Yes upgrade inside and you have better line with solid depth.yes im spending a first on that for sure. Skoronski. Best lineman in the draft. Instead of a hit or miss qb I prefer  building the line.

Not at all. There’s a large gap between Darnold and Burrow. 

Yes.my pt exactly.upgrading over Arnold wasnt your argument, Burrow was , and again no Burrow available. You set Burrow as the standard.Back to pt , better to elevatethe line.

Any GM that considers drafting IOL in the top 10 should get fired.

With the possible exception of a good team holding that pick due to a prior trade with an obvious need at IOL. But a team that's there because they suck cannot afford to spend a premium pick like that on IOL. That's worse than picking a RB

Drafting best lineman is always a good consideration, especially when the qb situation doesnt offer you that franchise player you need.Building a great line improves the whole offense. Thats not fireable or debatable.

    • Brandt's comment about Wharton was from his KC perspective when Wharton was a UDFA rookie.   "it goes back to the anecdote that Brandt Tillis had when he was in Kansas City. And it would be so easy to just cut Turk Wharton in 2020 when he was an undrafted rookie from a division two college in Missouri. It would been so easy to cut him because then he would have cleared waivers easily. No one knew this guy. They didn't have any joint practices, didn't have a preseason. Would have been so easy to cut him and bring him back on the practice squad and let him continue to build from there. And Brandt essentially said, "No, he's got to make the 53man roster if we're going to have any sort sense of credibility with this team."    
    • Plenty of us were scratching our heads about that signing at the time. Especially with our 3-4 defense. Wharton is kind of a one trick pony situational five tech DT. He doesn't have the beef to hold up against the run and he doesn't have the juice to shift outside. He's basically a situational pass rusher DT. If we paid him $40M+ and he can't start for a historically inept defense then holy poo...
    • Agreed.  300 and 2 or 3 total in Jacksonville in a winning effort would sure be a nice start.
