Because of the NFLPA rules the number of full contact reps is way down and those reps are extremely important for Offensive Linemen. So now it's a learn on the job process in games for alot of these young guys.
Kinda crazy to think that there are OL out there right now that don't establish themselves as quality starters until their 2nd or 3rd contract.
Zac also prefers not to push guys too hard in practice to get into the season with a healthy roster. That also hampers you in development of young OL. It's another reason why I don't like the volume of draft picks they've thrown at the OL the past two years.
