It all depends on Stanley being healthy, but if he is then I think we're good. We've coached up far worse personnel into a serviceable line.Am I the only one that is constantly worrying about our OLine? Like I keep telling myself on paper it has a chance to be way better than last year's, but that's on paper.
I just know that with a good online we're gonna be hard to beat. Did we do enough?

Than I'm definitely remembering wrong. Has to be some other receiver that I can't seem to remember.i dont think he's played surtain either...
in my opinion, by getting Stanley back and improving the interior, we are a much better OL. I also don't think RT will be much worse when Orlando Brown was playing there, but lets not forget that 9 games we had a swinging door.Am I the only one that is constantly worrying about our OLine?

that's my point. I absolutely think we will have a better OL than last year.No offense to Orlando, but RT on our offense is the easiest position to play on our OL with Lamar back there. Villanueva should definitely be an upgrade over the rotation we had going on even if he isn't as good as Orlando.

Ehh, I don't really see it. Teams have a hard enough time finding one solid LT. Pretty much nobody has two.Stanley seems to always be nicked up in some way. I know we paid him a ton of money, but eventually, it may be smart to go after a rock solid LT of the future who can back him up when Stanley gets nicked up again

I think you can go looking in the draft for another OBJ type, who can play the right side and can swing over to the left if injuries occur. But if you want another Stanley type player, you'll likely need another top 10-15 draft pick to get one.
I've been harping on depth at Tackle for years as a need. I think that's why Villaneuva and James are here. Both should be just fine at RT, and at least with Villaneuva, you know he can be at least a competent LT if needed. There's just no way you're going to make the same kind of investment you made in Ronnie on somebody to be a backup or probably to even play the right side.
I mean, we signed Villaneuva and James. Wouldn't they qualify?I didn’t mean a pro bowl all pro talent. I mean a cheap guy who can come in and play at least adequately for us for at least a few years. Not even someone on OBJs level last year.

I don't think you can find someone affordable and long term without drafting somebody. Which is fine, but they'd probably end up as our RT like Orlando if they're a decent tackle.Short term. But those guys were brought in to play RT. I’m talking about a guy who plays LT/isn’t expected to be a full time starter. A solid backup LT
Have we really ever done that? Pretty much anybody you get is going to be a swing tackle, meaning they can play both spots, or your RT kicks to the left side.Short term. But those guys were brought in to play RT. I’m talking about a guy who plays LT/isn’t expected to be a full time starter. A solid backup LT
Correct. It doesn't always work this way, but if you're signing a guy who's good enough to be an average LT, why wouldn't he be above average as a RT or a Guard? In which case, why isn't he the starter there?I don't think you can find someone affordable and long term without drafting somebody. Which is fine, but they'd probably end up as our RT like Orlando if they're a decent tackle.
regarding AV, he played LT for the Steelers, so he can do it. If you are talking about a young guy, that can be here longer, than that's most likely going to be in the draft.Short term. But those guys were brought in to play RT. I’m talking about a guy who plays LT/isn’t expected to be a full time starter. A solid backup LT
I figured out who it was and he beat Surtain and Horn. It was Kadarius Toney.i dont think he's played surtain either...
