Fix those and I'd say Zac Taylor has no excuses not to win in 2019. Signing John Miller was a solid start. The Hart signing is puzzling though.
We obviously won't be switching him to Guard, and it's hard to see them paying $7 million for a backup Tackle, so I'd say we won't be drafting a Tackle at 11. So unless Price, Glenn and Hart show improvement, this still looks like a group capable of allowing 50 sacks and lots of pressure.
That said, maybe we actually will take a Tackle at 11. The market is crazy right now and we had to have a backup plan in case that Tackle isn't there in the draft. That's an expensive insurance policy, but it's not like we had much choice. Theoretically.
I think OT is a strong possibility in the 1st or 2nd round, even with the Hart signing. The Hart signing just gives them a little freedom... instead of saying "we absolutely have to find a starting RT in the 1st round", now they can say "ooh, White is available, let's grab him!"
Is $7 million as pricey for a backup if you plan on having him backup both a rookie and an often injured Glenn? I could maybe see the thought process behind that...
