Quotemax Quotezn Quotemax Back in 2012 all everyone talked about was the high first round picks. It was all about Luck and RG3. Turns out both of those guys are gone, and the lower round picks are still around doing well. Tells me that its quite possible to rebuild our OL with players drafted after the first round.

QuoteDeadpool 4. The draft. Again, hindsight, but man. You know you need a LG, an upgrade at RG and I'm sorry, but you know you can upgrade your OC. So what do you do? Trade back and back and draft a 3rd S.
