Let me phrase, the likelihood of a team getting 3 “quality” starters on the line in one single draft is not high. They need to rely on what they know instead of projections. This team hasn’t had a quality O-lineman drafted in years. Jonah is serviceable but hurt a lot. So since Zietler maybe? You trusting this organization to nail 3 good Olinemen in one draft when they haven’t had a sustained successful Olineman drafted since 2012?
