How do we fix the Oline?
#23
Approach fee agency as if there is no draft.  The draft is basically a crap shoot.  

#1, half the first round guys either don't live up to expectations or are outright busts (see Ogbuehi, Cedric).

#2, we don't know who's going to be there when we pick, especially where we will be drafting.

#3, if you wait till the draft to fill immediate needs, we force ourselves to reach (see Price, William).

#4, offensive line seems to be the hardest position to develop; we are in win now mode.

On the other hand, you pretty much know what you're getting with free agents.  And as others have pointed out, there should be a line of free agent linemen hoping to sign here.

Priority order: re-sign Spain, free agent RT, possibly free agent C.  As far as RG, the jury is out on Carman.  He should be better next year.  But if they've seen enough to feel that he's not the answer, by all means a free agent RG.  We need to do all we can to upgrade at every position but LT.

Then sit back and enjoy the draft.  BPA all day.
