No problem drafting competition. Brining in undrafted competition but Brendels going to be your guy.

Just such a bummer. I truly believe the only thing this offense needs is health and a good C.

The symphony that was our running game when Richburg was healthy….

I really thought this was the one spot where they would make an FA investment this offseason.

It's still possible we make an upgrade. I'm hoping that Brendel has been dealing with an undisclosed injury and that he will be healthy this year. Lol

He's not unchallenged. Hennesssy is there and he's a higher graded prospect then a lot of these C this year

I dislike Brendel, but we wreck shop in 2023 with him. He's actually been graded out as positive with run blocking. It's when we get in those true pass blocking sets

I remember he was dealing with knee tendonitis before training camp. It looks like Brendel hears the noise, and has been posting those intense training videos, so maybe he's stronger, which would be great. we might get an improved, determined Brendel.

1000X this.

For 2025 the concerns about the OL are overblown. Trent and Puni rock solid. McKivitz is a good, not great, starting RT and improved a lot last year. I have faith in Bartch at LG - upgrade over a regressing Banks last year. Burford and Zakelj decent depth. Pleasants avg swing tackle.

We HAVE to upgrade at C - the running game falls into place and we are a top 3 offense again.

Beyond 2025 - both tackle spots are very concerning with Trent retiring and the team unlikely to pay McKivitz…. Hopefully the team has a plan….

I thought there was a chance McKivitz gets extended but with what Jaylon Moore got- no way we pay McKivitz anywhere near that.

With that said, we need a couple tackles. I doubt anyone this late will make a dent. Hit the UDFA market.

Yeah its odd that Kyle has been on the record about the importance of the OC for his offense and he has not demanded an upgrade, I thought Kendall was a good draft option to push Brendel and co, but he gone.

Eagles have absolutely nailed another draft.

So did the Ravens.

Brown, Huber, and either Peebles or Toia, then lets get a few FA's on the phone.

I say the ravens kill it every year - but to what end? Early playoff exits

That would be huge.

Yes we were great with him in 2023 and he regressed sharply (as did Banks) in 2024. I know he's graded out positive in run blocking by PFF but I can't unsee the Jonnydel videos to the contrary.

I would happily welcome a return to or improvement on 2023 form from a healthy and out to prove something Brendel.

They really did, and not a coincidence that they're always a good team

No games have been played and they nailed the draft? Probably wait until games have been played and see who nailed the draft.
