kurtinelson said:I totally disagree with the assessment of our offensive line as being weak. Two starters (Light and Koppen) missed a significant number of games forcing (mostly) Kaczur and Hochstein into full time duty. This is the same line from 2004 (minus Adruzzi) that helped a healthy Corey Dillon get 1,600 yards. This year we had two rookies play almost the entire season and Dillon was banged up. The lack of running game and the frequent blitzing may have had something to do with Brady getting knocked down this season.
I'm troubled that Felger's mole said that Kaczur may not be as committed as they'd like. He was still able to start the majority of games at left tackle as a rookie, so I'm a little skeptical that they are ready to throw in the towel on him. With Light and Koppen coming back and having spent a 1st and a 3rd round pick on OL last season, I would be shocked if BB/Pioli spent another high round draft pick (rd 1 or 2) on OL this season. I think they can spend a pick or two in later rounds to help fill in the depth that they may loose to free agency, but I think anything beyond that would be a waste.
As I see it,the priority needs to be addressed in the draft are ILB/OLB, CB, S, WR, and RB.
What are you doing about RG?RT?
