While the team has picked up quality OL via free agency, they still have the same situation on their hands as when they were rolling mostly with OL drafted by the team, they never reach their potential and some even fail to play up to levels established in college or with previous pro teams.
I'm a firm believe of the bodies that we have playing OL are just fine. It's somewhere in the coaching and play calling that is causing them to have a rough go out there. In other words they don't need to keep throwing money at the position group as much as they need to examine what is going on with the coaching and game planning of these guys. I will add that having them play during preseason also seems like a pretty good idea at this point.
Okay cool Sunset. We definitely need a change at OL coach, Pollack seems to be the constant here. If we get a new OL coach that
knows what he is doing I would be fine with Drafting OL as they might be able to be developed. Latham, Alt and Fashanu all would
be more than fine with me in the first this year. I am still very open to FA's though, especially at RT. George Fant would be a good
grab IMO.
