LABILLBACKER Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 On 2/14/2023 at 7:34 AM, Dr. Who said: We have a dearth of talent in the offensive line and you are proposing trading one of the few genuinely talented lineman for a draft pick? You could make a case for moving him inside if you had a better LT, but that's the only move and it is unlikely to be a consideration since there aren't any superlatifve LT candidates to be had late first round or in free agency. Agree, We're not touching Dion. He's our best olineman on a incredibly mediocre OL. I'd still like to see us draft 2 olineman in the first 4 rounds and at the very minimum sign 1 good FA like Seumalo or Pocic. Spencer's feet are way to slow and he should be depth the remainder of his contract. Scrubs like Saffold, Quessenberry and Van Rotten need replacing immediately. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple reps Hassan Reddick got pancaked by Andrew Wylie which should never happen. The Chiefs got lucky that the field mitigated the Eagles pass rush. A couple sacks throughout the game may have changed the outcome. Heard the same excuse about our field against the Bengals, due to the weather (which is always going to be a problem in Buffalo). Players slipping, which somehow gave the advantage to the offense. Maybe a perfect field yields a couple sacks, and a different team wins. The Eagles still likely allow 30+ points. My point is the same. If an elite QB is on that day... even the 85 Bears wouldn't be able to stop them. Which considering the guys we have to go through in the AFC playoffs, makes it pointless to waste resources on that side of the ball. Because at some point, Mahomes, Burrow, Herbert, Lawrence, etc. are going to smack us around. Instead use the resources on the O-Line to keep our elite Quarterback healthy and pressure free, along with weapons to try and outscore the opponent.
