O-line has to be the priority.


Awesomeness!!

Recommended Posts

O-line is A priority.

So is receiver, corner, and safety.

 

yep. take the best available from those positions when it's our turn to pick.

 

and fill in the gaps with FAs where we can.

 

if we get a bargain in the early part of FA when it opens up in march, then cool.

 

focus needs to be on getting the best available options for all of those positions. all are huge issues that needs addressed and we only hurt ourselves by limiting ourselves to just one or two there.

And look what upgrading DT did for our defense, when your great upfront it makes everything else look better

But you had talent behind them at the LB position. So while it did make the secondary look better. You already had a good set of LB. A Oline will make the running game better but it still doesn't help sub par WR's from getting separation , making catches, and getting YAC yards.

We need to get Cam some weapons to throw to plain and simple.

Absolutely, there are guys out in FA that can be starters on our o line that won't be devastating to the cap and will be 5 times more talented than Byron bell. Obviously if something silly like Taylor (Tyler?) lewan falls to us in the draft, then by all means we go o line.

    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
