You're gonna be very frustrated in 2021. It's been well documented that rookie lineman have a huge learning curve (which is why Corbett and Edwards played so much better this year). Most people say it's about a three year curve. I like the idea of adding a center and tackle to sit behind a year or 2 but triple dipping on the line when we need ilb, receiver, possibly 2 edge rushers? No thank you, imo

I can see us replacing center but I find it highly unlikely that we replace our entire interior.

I didn't say add 3 rookies as starters.

I said they need a center. And actually centers routinely start as rookies in the NFL, there is nothing at all rare about that.

And I said they need someone behind Whitworth.

Presumably a new LOT behind Whitworth would not start as a rookie.

I also added that maybe they move on from Hav next year. If they don't already have a replacement for him, and they drafted a right OT, he would not start this year either.

So that's maybe one rookie starter in 2020--a center.

  If your solution to an inconsistent line is to add three rookies

  no

  Well then we aren't far off in our view

Ram_Ruler186February 22, 2021 10:44AM

  I'd draft an OL every year
