We all understood why the team let Andre Smith go, but only the coaches knew how bad Og was. I don't see how it's possible for them to not know how he was turning out. Maybe he'll turn out okay some day, but so far he hasn't and they had to know unless they never bothered to look before putting him on the field.
Team could have signed Zeitler last year for a deal and came close to matching DeCastro's. Instead he's done and his replacement hasn't even been active for a single game. Have they even looked at how Westerman is advancing? You'd think that they must have, but I'm not so sure they have the way they missed on Og's progress.
This is all true and it is very concerning. With the way they handled the Og situation it is hard to have faith in PA at all.
Or Marv. You don't just trot a 1st round pick out there and think he will be great cause he was a 1st round pick...
You don't just keep starting the 1st round pick when he lets your QB get sacked and hit over and over cause he is a 1st round pick...
This is assinine.
I liked the Westerman pick a lot but who knows if he will be prepared to start with what we have seen as of late.
