They need to go after a different type of lineman than they have in the past in order to see great improvement in line play.  They need bigger and stronger not just smart player.  It is a rebuild that won't happen in one year

That chart that was circling the internet during the season about the RAS of team's OL was truly shocking. I didn't have any idea it was that big of a gap.


EDIT: Found the chart.



(This was like Week 12 or something I think, so the PFF Grades might be different but the athleticism still applies.)
