Yup, Im not big on Snyder at all. This will hurt us big time.

Im okay with Snyder but he is not a guy who has shown he can stay healthy for 16 games. Our O-Line got really thin all of a sudden

Sadly i have to agree. Not to mention the fact that there was no addition to the pass rush whatsoever. Hope this isn't true

he was hardly our "big" signing...

he simply was the low risk high reward guy that we decided to roll the dice on.

I hope the guy retires. What he was signed in March with the intent of starting him, yet he's yet to be cleared to play full time. Get the bum out of here.

Even if Snyder does well this year, there's a high probability that 1 of the 2 first round picks next year will be used on a tackle. I think both Sims and Boone make the team.

Not taking Oher (even though Crabtree was the right pick at the moment) looks huge.

I thought that Marvel was very "50/50" in the preseason games. This really is something to be concerned about, no question. I love the addition of Boone, and feel he could play spot-duty at RT if Snyder has minor issues through the season. But if something happens to Staley at LT?

now we have to wait to see if any quality RT's get cut
after the 53 man roster cut

Not many quality RT's are available late Aug/early Sept

Well, clearly time in the Dallas and San Diego games to see what Alex Boone can do.

This is not good. We need the depth.
