That is the real area of weakness with this O-line, outside of Burrow getting pressured/roughed.

No, but in all seriousness I do like our depth at OL better than what’s behind Uzomah…

The OL is still certainly a work in progress though. What’s nice is if we can re-sign Spain and Reiff we won’t be in a position where we have to go OL early in the draft. Now, if there’s guys they like, and they’re the BPA on their board when we pick, then by all means pull the trigger.

Hopkins was better today, but I still want a stud Center for the future. And as much as I like big D’Ante Smith we shouldn’t bank on a 4th rounder that’s never played a snap in the regular season to be penciled in as our next RT.

Follow it up with a pass catching TE.

I read somewhere that last week against the Chargers, Herbert was pressured on 30 of his 42 dropbacks. 

The Bengals blitzed on 9 defensive plays and produced 5 sacks.

The Ravens blitzed on 17 defensive plays and produced 1 sack.

We signed a bunch of guys that can clog the middle, and corners who are excellent at tackling outside.

I don’t care what the PFF grades are, that’s impressive ^
