We have upgraded both tackle spots this year. Brown is an upgrade over Jonah, espe ially the hobbled version we saw last year. And a healthy Jonah is an upgrade on the creaky Collins we saw last year, at oeast in terms of pass protection.
However, OT OG, and C should all be spots we look at for next year.
Jonah is a FA after this year and Carman is now the inactive OT on gameday and Smith has no experience. We cut Collins so have no experienced backups for next year. It is a deep OT class and I think that has to be our #1 priority. Carman & Smith are inked thru 2024. Brown thru 2026.
On the interior, Cappa is the best we have, and signed thru 2025, as is Volson. Karras thru 2024. Scharping is a FA after this year. Hill signed thru 2024 and is inactive. Ford has been terrible everywhere he has been. I thin taking a C & moving Karras to guard should be on the table (Van Pern). As is taking a guard outright.
