Making the wrong decisions is completely different from ignoring the O-line.
It blows my mind how many people keep making that claim. In the last 5 years we have used 3 first round picks on O-line and one on CB. Yet someone has already complained about us using all our first round picks on CBs and none on O-line. Plus we traded for one of the highest paid starting LTs in the league.
The highest costing person isn't always the best at the job.. They could have also cut loose of the contract, and went after a higher quality tackle, there were a few out there. But now, for the second year in a row, we have a 1st round OL draft pick that is of no use to the team.
You can call that "bad luck" or whatever you like, but when you combine Price and Williams being damaged goods, with the whiffs that Ogbuehi and Fisher were, that adds up to a lot of crappy talent evaluation.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
