Hard to believe any team in the league goes into a season with 4 new starting OL with one of them being a rookie and that's a price a team pays for. This OL after the the initial start was one of the best and most efficient OL in football. Imo, they will not go out and pay huge $$$ for any OL and especially a LT which would be mega $$.
What elite guy are you going to pay for especially with everything else they need to do? The big question on the OL will be what they do with Williams. They did not take Carman in the 2nd round to be a journeyman and with what we saw and everything we heard about him maturing, developing, etc. he may very well be the next LT.
You still won 2 playoff games this year with multiple OL starters out and they played their best game of the year against Buffalo with 3 of them out. They went up against the best DT/NT in the NFL in Chris Jones and still it goes down to the wire. They simply need to keep drafting well and keep developing the OL on the roster.
Both tackle positions on this team are liabilities. Do you REALLY feel comfortable going into the season with 2 of Jonah Williams, Carman, and LC (god even knows if he will be close to ready) starting at tackle? I have seen enough and I do not.
The boys are just talkin' ball, babyyyy
