The line sans Boling and Williams is worse than last year.  Signing middling FA guards and giving Hart starter money is not a recipe for success.  One injury at tackle and then it gets really bad.

Stated another way, both position groups are no better than last year, even after FA and the draft.  I know you can’t account for injuries, but the FO’s lackluster approach with both position groups leaves much to be desired.

Up until 2018, Vontaze Burfict played rather well. However, he played very poorly last year. It may not be that difficult to play as well or better than he did last year.
