LT and Center are Concerning.

I think Nijman is the LT plan as of now with a chance at 19 if the draft falls our way. I’d like Jenkins at center 

We need to nail the left tackle whether through draft or signing, we cannot afford for Bryce to regress.

Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if Samac ends up starting. Hes spent a year with us and it’s possible our staff feels like he can be a decent starter. We wouldn’t have let Mays go if we didn’t feel confident in replacing him. I feel we could also find some cheap vets or draft a center.

 

Tackle is the bigger issue. We don’t know if Icky will even come back to be a starting level tackle. Moton is 31 and we need his replacement as well. Drafting a tackle in the first would be the best option. We also need some depth if one gets injured. Yijman is a great option and so is BC but we don’t know when he’ll be back

I will word that a little differently. We can’t afford him the easy excuse of a shambolic OL, if he does regress. We need to have that squared away. 
 

Any regression going on, if any, needs to clearly be in his area of responsibility. This is the last chance for gas exit. We can’t afford being fooled and stuck like Tua or Murray or any of those scenes.

center is not a position of focus in the NFL, you can get the best center in the draft in the second/third round and pair him with Corbett. now LT is a real problem I suspect they bring back Yoshi and pair him with a rookie and pray for the best.

I will word that a little differently. We simply need good offensive line play regardless of anything else.

There's still more signings to be had.

Come draft, Monroe Freeling T is my favorite pick on offense in R1 for us.  Lomu T could be good as well.  If we go some one like CJ Allen or McNeil-Warren, then a R2 target like Max Iheanachor T and Caleb Tiernan T would be nice.

Center is important but you can get a starter in R3, we don't need to reach there.  Lew looks good. Also think we will still do something, need vet insurance even if we're going to draft one.

    • I would say that he's pulling things out of his ass to get people to visit his site.
    • Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances. 
    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
