So I am in agreement with you.
The OL isn't going to magically turn into an amazing OL.
We've seen Karras, Cappa, and Volson on this OL for 2+ years.
OBJ I would expect to improve some now that he's been with the team for over a year.
Trent Brown and Amarius Mims might struggle some initially as they acclimate to this scheme and everything.
Scheme and all is one thing but chemistry is enormous in OL play which isn't mentioned enough. Knowing where your mates are is huge. My good buddy's son is best friends with a NFL starting OL and he gave the best example I've ever heard. He said a cohesive OL that has played together is like a driver switching lines and only having to look in their sideview mirror for a brief second. Having a mix and match OL with guys not playing together is like not only having to look in your sideview mirror but also having to turn your head around to look back as you just don't have that trust that has developed. Everything just takes way too long to develop.
