Thoughts??
None of them dudes are worth signing. Roll with Mckvitiz and a draft pick
This. You have McKivitz, Moore, and a rookie most likely. Maybe they take a developmental guy to put on the PS as well.
Let's hope they hit. That right side was already a weakness even with Burford/Brunskill + McGlinchey.
Hopefully Burford takes that next mental step forward and we find our higher level RT in the draft. It's highly unlikely McKivitz or Moore are the answer. But you never know.
With the addition of Pryor and Feliciano, looks like the NCommand OLine talent stacking game plan is going according to plan!

Now ShanaLynch just needs to hit on some good top of the line OLine talent in the draft. Pryor and Feliciano look to me to be more pass protectors than road graders, so the idea of Purdy being number 1 QB is solidifying in my mind.

I'm hoping McKivitz and Moore make the jump to starter level competition this year. I'm much more confident in Foerster's coaching this year than last year, for sure. He did a great job in coaching basically interior rookie OLinemen into a good OLine unit at the end of last season. As you said, the RT was a weakness, and ShanaLynch has the draft capital to shore it up this year with multiple day three picks. (or a trade up) I think Foerster can find and develop one of the Tackles on the roster or in the draft, to be a good Right Tackle this next year.
P.S. I'm still pulling for Poe to compete with the starters for a Center or Guard position this year.
