Actually the speed they are acquiring and the stud RB will help a line not hurt it.. plus im guessing they feel Johnson a veteran and Westerman are better served with experience on this team than any 4/5 pick.  As for tackle they are going with their high draft picks plus veterans to back them up with Winston and Smith if needed.  Center was a weak draft this year especially after first couple.. so i figured maybe a center in rounds 4 to 6.
