This isn't a "trade up for a top ten guard thread" so please "respect the thread" and i won't argue in the draft thread.
It is my guess that the Pats are happy to have Stork and so will eventually have three cornerstones for now and future bigger contracts.
I further believe they still want to go big and want to get some hard working value players like the present two, but more physical. If so, Wendell has increased value now that he absolutely can play guard and center (and he's younger) so our two guards are potential swing players going forward.
Furthermore, since we are getting great play from at least two "busts", humor me that many players can look awful, then become very good with practice, especially at O Line.
Every player and PS player has an advantage over newbies, but we can consider low-no cost pickups this year.
Having said that, we have two games to work in some players, Connolly's injured (Reiss guesses inactive) so who would you like to get a chance for some time at any O line position, for the playoffs and for a look ahead to training camp.
Next year's draft is interesting, but since we can't play them now, irrelevant to this thread.
I think this covers our developmental players including PS. Thoughts?
