Brady has struggled in preseason, but I hope that is due to lack of scheming and gameplanning. The scary issue is that he was owned so much in Jets joint practice and Giants game. 

Good news on that front!

Feeling much better about the OL overall after the preseason has concluded. Zavala showed capable if he needs to start, and McCray showed to be a capable interior back-up as well at center and both guard positions. The staff is bullish on Cade Mays as well. Brady Christensen is an amazing OL6 that has shown to be more than serviceable at LG and potentially capable at LT as well.

In a perfect world, Christensen gets to be OL6 but in the real world he's shown enough to be able to hold down the fort until Zavala beats him out for his spot (or he has to fill in for somebody else that goes down).

Too early to tell of course, but in an ideal world both perform well and we have options.  I love that we have drafted a few interior guys recently.  We should be taking an OL every single draft in the top 4 rounds.  

I agree

Seems like all the good teams always come out of the draft without at least one interior big dude on each side of the line

      Trevin Wallace - PFF Breakout Nominee

      You're not understanding what I'm saying. I'm saying that truly elite players will always have a market because they're elite difference makers and that at the "devalued positions" the NFL has discovered that those are spots where unless you have an elite talent there you have an opportunity to get similar results out of run of the mill talent for run of the mill money compared to good talent for good money. The drop off in overall unit performance isn't dramatic dropping down from "good" to "JAG" and it saves money to invest in the premium positions. It's about skill sets and what is hardest to find, simple supply and demand. There's just more serviceable LBs and RBs and safeties out there than their are CBs and pass rushers and QBs. And honestly, a big part of our historic lack of consistent success has been investing too many premium draft and cap resources into those devalued positions. Yeah, we've had a lot of great off the ball LBs and RBs on our way to be a franchise with an overall losing record. Pointing to our success at those positions is proving my point because I just point to our W-L record and overall lack of historical quality at premium positions like QB, WR, CB, etc. We've sucked in large part because we've valued the wrong position groups. In a vacuum it doesn't matter. But in actuality every high pick or big chunk of cap you spend on an off the ball LB or RB or IOL is a high pick or big chunk of cap you couldn't spend on a QB or CB or WR or OT.

      Right before Kuechly retired, we had some of the worst D line play that year.  We were ranked 29th against the run in 2019.   I remember even Kuechly struggled to get off the blocks at times because the linemen were on second level so quickly due to our porous line made up of Kyle Love, Vernon Butler and a washed up Gerald McCoy.
