I disagree with your premise #1. Once Allen and Shelton return then I consider our OL plenty good enough. Already discussed in another thread.
Yes, already discussed. Will not re-hash here.

I’ve already opined that acquiring a ‘solid’ Edge would be desirable. It’s #1 on my to-do list. Not sure we can get to another SB with our current edge roster, frankly.
Two questions:
1. Would you offer our 2023 2nd & 3rd round picks for Burns?
2. If the answer is yes, where do you suppose that places our defense? Currently, with no pass rush (outside of AD and a blitz from Ramsey) and a beat-up secondary, the Rams defense gives up 17.3 ppg. Where do you think we might be with better health on the back end and Burns opposite Floyd? Do you think it enough to suppress the points allowed even further?
This wouldn't be new territory for McVay and the team. In 2020, we put games in the hands of the defense and ask Goff to get us 17 - 20 points and not turn the ball over. Lost to the Packers in the Divisonal round with an injured AD. He stays healthy...who knows?
I don't have faith in an O-line of back-ups. But I'll roll with an even more improved defense (at least on paper).
