Yep. Regardless of which side you're on, you have to admit we've struggled with o-line picks lately.
Billy Price
Cedcric Ogbuehi
Jake Fisher
All busts.
Then you have the mid-round whiffs like...
Michael Jordan
JJ Dielman
Christian Westerman
Russell Bodine
Tanner Hawkinson
All taken between rounds 3-5. The last solid lineman we got in that range was Clint Boling in 2011.
That's what worries me about the "just get a lineman later" line of thinking.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
