It was never really hate at Jonah for me so much as saying they didnt do enough incase he misses more time(based on his short history with the team it seemed possible)... But hopefully we dont have to worry about that anymore. cause depth still kinda an issue

Please name this pro bowl guard who is going to be available for them to sign.

Like,as in,go after.Meaning,like involving a trade,draft picks,etc.There’s as always,a fair chance that some will be available,or had,at the right price.Not saying this is going to happen.Especially knowing Mike Brown,but,that’s what I would do as part of making the OL my top priority in the offseason.

Brandon Scherff.
Now, I’ve already seen someone in the know say “no shot” wrt signing him. But he’s going to be available, and we would be able to afford it.

Do you realize he's faced some of the NFL's best pass rushers almost all season long? No, I bet you didn't realize that. In fact i'd say the entire Oline for all it's flaws has massively improved since last year with mostly the same players that were here last year. Yes, Burrow has been sacked a bunch, but has also had time to just about lead the league in a boatload of passing categories.. He certainly wasn't able to do it with last years line with Turner calling the shots. I believe Jonah will only improve under Frank Pollack and Ben Martin..But if it makes you feel any better your comment qualifies as a boatload of meh and you're not even the best we have..

For everyone who said we should have gotten another $12-$16 million dollar offensive lineman last offseason. . .
We only have $6.8 million in unused cap space. $6.8 million gets you the 75th highest paid O-lineman in the league, not some guaranteed elite free agent.
