OLine need on a scale of 1 to 10--6. LB need on a scale of 1 to 10--10. End of story. We have OLinemen we can get by with or even scheme around. You can't say that for our LB's.
There is no greater need on this team and it would be idiotic to think about trying to fix it with third and fourth rounders who will be taken in the second and third rounds anyway because teams who need LB's go after them and grab them when they're available.
Now that Marvin and his hubris over LB's is gone, maybe things change around here.
Agree.
Add the fact that the Rams love to use the jet sweep motion at the snap.... and the Rams use blocking TEs on most plays... and you changed how the DL plays you. Both of these will benefit our current OL.
However if BOTH Devins are off the board at 11... do you trade back or just grab one of those immediate starters @ OL? I don't think the other LBs are going to be strong NFL starters year 1.
