I think there is a chance Sow is starting over Strange.

Also sad but true

Also sad but true

I think Strange could use the chance to recuperate and we could use a fresh guard midway through the season.

 

[50-yard-line]

I feel much better. This guy is so underrated by many here. Huge retention.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Thats great news! Feel much better about our OL especially if we can nab an LT before the draft. That means you can focus on filling qb and wr in the draft.

 

[mike_usagisan]

Thinking this way too. I feel like bringing in Smith could let you wait until the mid rounds for a tackle prospect if needed.

I don't think Smith is the kind of guy you trust to last a full season.

 

[Mack Herron]

A foundational piece. Had to do it.

Henry, Bourne and now Onwenu. All 3 returning on less than bank breaking contracts says good things about how the players view the new staff

 

[50-yard-line]

I’d play Sow over Stranger at this point at LG.

I still think Strange should try LT. Just a layman’s notion, but his weakness is the monster DT powering him back.

He’s certainly quick enough for tackle, particularly in the age of 245lb OLBs.

Also all on 3-year contracts. Which is interesting. That's a pretty short-term for a 26 year old OL, for example.

You do know Justin Fields and CJ Stroud are different people, right?

Damn

I need to rethink everthing now.

 

[JohnJH]

Cheap bastards. That's a great deal considering some of the other numbers thrown around today for IOL.

That was actually a pretty good deal for the Patriots. I thought he was going to leave and could have gotten a lot more. Now, even though he said he's going to train more to play OT, if we keep him primarily as a RG, get Jonah Williams to put next to him (or at LT if we get a decent RT).

 

[Wozzy]

Awesome, the right side is set with Onwenu and Sow, the pivot is solid with Andrews and Andrews, the left side is good up until left tackle with Strange and Mafi providing depth.

Find a left tackle and maybe one more tackle for insurance... line complete. Good job Wolf.

Alot of money being tossed around on returning offensive players for a team that couldn't even score.

The QB and WRs are being replaced.

That tells me what Van Pelt and Macadoo saw on tape.

There's a big difference between bad talent and bad execution.

The majority of fans write off everything to bad talent. Very often they're wrong.

I’m assuming day is going to be external targets after handling in house players first.

This is of course what you both hope to be true.

Maybe the offensive line just sucked.

 

[Sully]

Very happy with this!

19M/yr is cheap?

I’m trusting the coaches and talent evaluators.
