Well, maybe because a new QB will get equally destroyed behind team matador.

I'm sure they could get OL in other rounds of the draft.

we did that last year...and they year before

And your point is? Only first round OL are good? Lol.

Would you prefer a dominant player or what we currently have?

I'm just gonna say this....remember when the O-line was the strength of the team.

Gotta go back a long way for that.

I would love a great OL just like anyone, but if you have a shot at a franchise QB, then you take it. It's simple.

I think its going to depend on what Anthony Davis does. Oline either draft or free agency must be a priority as should an outside linebacker. We need to get this pass rush cranked up in a desperate way.

And if you swing and miss, then you're the Washington Redskins or the Cleveland Browns.

I'd rather that Davis stay retired. If he decides that he wants to come back then you really don't know for how long, what if he decides he just doesn't want to do it anymore and retires on you again, but midseason. He's already screwed this team for this season as far as the RT spot goes.

I hear you, but your best shot at a franchise guy, is going to be at the top of the first round. Given probability percentages. There is always a chance you miss though, so I get that.

This draft is gonna be a good one for O-line IMO.

Ronnie Stanley
Laremy Tunsil
Taylor Decker ------> my new draft crush, 1st or 2nd round it don't matter just get him on the team the boy is a beast.
Spencer Drango
Jordan Rigsbee ------> This is who we need to get from Cal......you guys are looking at the wrong Bear for the 49ers. Reminds me Jeremy Newberry.
Tyler Marz ------> Feisty run blocker for the Badgers!!!

Assuming two of those guys declare.

And if you do whiff at the top of the 1st round, you're not blowing the chance at a decent or good starter, you're like blowing an opportunity on a Pro-Bowl caliber player, a true game changer.


Instead of the RG3 disaster, the Redskins could have wound up with Luke Kuechly. Instead of Jake Locker, the Titans could have had Tyrone Smith. Instead of Gabbert, the Jaguars could have had JJ Watt. There's an opportunity cost there. If a team is 100% sold on a particular QB, so be it but I hope that one doesn't get drafted just out of a perceived need.



Basically, this is how I look at it. Is a QB the best player on your board, if so proceed......or are you drafting the best QB on your board because you see it as a need?



Also say Goff doesn't declare and stays for his senior year as some others QB's have done. Do you then reach for Cook or Hackenberg, neither of whom impress me much honestly.

Drango kicking in at OG...?

Yep. That kind of mind set he has just isn't dependable. Gotta find dedicated players. Another Staley (mind and body) would be nice.

This

IMO, pay a "Proven" FA for the OLine.

I still believe in getting guys to develop BUT not wait until the ship sinks in the process.

Waiting doesn't seem to be working too well.

Get the best "Proven" guy and pay them.

Then draft the best DLine guys we can.

I know we need more than that but it's a start.

Oline is the most important position on a football field.

he was talking about missing at QB, not OL
