The thing about the draft, you don’t draft need early, unless the best player on the board also happens match a need.
FA happens before the draft, if they are active like they were last year and do focus on the line like they say, it would lessen the need to draft OL as early as 1, but if Sewell is there at 5, I think they pick him regardless because of how outstanding he is. You could make a case for Slater too, but at pick 5, you’re looking for the #1 at a position, not #2 most times. There are other good linemen in this draft too obviously who could help early too.
So, instead of saying to just draft linemen, say find better linemen to keep burrow upright everywhere.
