So, how do you build a line here then?
The one pick that hasn't been garbage since the 2012 draft that was on the O-line was Williams. Where we spent a high draft pick on a guy that was viewed by all the experts as a can't miss type of guy. (Exactly like Sewell)
Look at the list of garbage in round 2 and beyond in 2020 draft, 2019, 18, etc... the last good O-line pick was Zeitler in 2012, when he was still a 1st rounder but we traded down and missed on DeCastro to take him which in hindsight was a mistake.
So, how do we build a line Fred?
Can't use pick 5, cause... gots to gets the skillz.... Chase or Pitts... durrrr
Can't use 2nd, or beyond because the team has shown it can't evaluate talent. Look at the results, this is not a debate, they can't find talent on the OL after the 1st round in 10 years. Boling was talent in the 4th... 10 years ago.
Oh... and you won't spend money on the top guys like Thuney.
So... how are we supposed to protect the franchise?
