Anyone notice our O-linemen the past few years?

I dont know if its our scouts or coaching but all of our starters or bench players we had last year are starting somewhere right now, heres the list of players we have drafted or had as a free agent last year and where they are now

Players we Drafted since 2004

Will Montgomery (Redskins)

Travelle Wharton(Panthers)

Evan Mathis(Cincinnati) (wondered where he went. Cant believe he starts)

Geoff Hangartner(Bills)

Joe Berger(dolphins)

Rashad Butler(texans) Back up

Ryan Kalil(Panthers)

Jeff Otah

Geoff Schwartz

Mackenzy Bernadeau

Duke Robinson

Free Agents we have signed in the last year

Frank Omiyale

Jeremy Bridges

Keydrick Vincent

All but two have started, Butler and Robinson

Now you tell me that either A) we have a good coach that has taught these men how to play, B)We can scout the offensive line or C) we are just lucky?

Magazu came in 2003 when we drafted pro bowler Gross and we have only had one o-linemen not become a starter after he has left here. How awsome is that?

Hurney can find good talent in the FA and the draft, but Magazu with probably some help from Davidson (former OL coach) has developed these players into good lineman. I give most of the credit to the coaching. Missing starters, switching places, new players, and the line remained consistent throughout the season.

I said in another post...Magazu deserves major credit. He was one of the best college OLine coaches ever. He is here now and doing amazing for the past few years, with injured players and different lines every few weeks b/c of it.

    • But that's the point, if the locker room feels that way, then you're going to upset them by still keeping Bryce around and playing him over the Top 10 pick. Again, it goes one of 3 ways... 1. Bryce plays well enough to earn an extension 2. Bryce still sucks and we draft his replacement who starts Week 1 with a new QB as his backup 3. Bryce still sucks, we draft his replacement in the 1st, but they start the season backing up a new vet QB who was brought in to be his mentor. With an OUTSIDE chance at a 4th option where Bryce plays well enough to convince the team to let him play out the 5th year option and then make a decision.  Which I can't see it happening, but there is still a non zero chance of that happening I guess. The only way we draft a QB next year and still have Bryce on the roster, is if we're taking someone in the middle rounds hoping to develop them as a long term backup to Bryce.
    • I hear you. But I am not absolving Legette just because he is from my neck of the woods or anything else.  Tge comment was more about the fans uneven application of blame.  I do agree that there is a noticeable disconnect between him and the QB and that he might do better with a more polished and capable delivery man.  Abd don’t feel that they used XL right, or at least how I expected it to look.  And that could be a function of a reticent WB that shies away from that style of attack. I mean it was either him or Canales that pretty much eliminated downfield from the playbook - even while we see guys running free at times. It Could work if they commit to it.  Whoever isn’t committing. 
    • Lot of passion there.  Look, if Bryce plays down to the level that we feel the need to draft a QB high, you don’t think the locker room might be ready for anything that helps them win?   There are s lot of angles to this that could come into play depending on what happens this year.
