Something I posted the other day. A study from 2010 shows that in the era of the cap and free agency teams on avg. change 3.5 OL starters every 2 years. That means that the era of OL year to year continuity is effectively dead.
...
Whoa! That's a lot of change. Any theories on why so much? I don't think DL's change that much.
I'm wondering if the reasoning is in alignment with my rationale for wanting to move on from average players in general but especially on the OL. Maybe there is a sense that average OL players can be replaced easier relative to other positions. Therefore, it makes sense to churn the position and continually get cheaper labor.
