Let's also not forget the impact Bill Callahan can make on our current line. Maybe some good coaching is all they need?
And hopefully he does a better job at developing our young players.

Can't fix the entire team in one year. Hopefully these positions are addressed in the draft and undrafted free agents.

I would like Goldson from tampa hay!. Two year contract 6M. Draft Amos to study under him for two years then promote him to starter.

Good morning folks, as the dust settles from free agency and as I peruse our roster I see 2 gaping holes at starting spots still on vacant on the team. Right tackle and free safety positions have been severe problems for way too long on this team and with the remaining market available its wont be solved be this method.
The draft is thin at Free, but at Tackle there are many versatile players available in the college ranks, but none seem talented enough for a top 5 pick.
I would still keep my eye on Goldson in Tampa to see if he will be released. While Im not a huge fan, he is talented enough to start and be productive in this league on a 1 year deal. Stevie Brown has connections here, he is another I would at least bring in to gauge interest.
Right Tackle, Barksdale is still available and probably the most talented free agent left. Where above I would settle for Goldson as talented enough to still be productive, I dont see it in Barksdale with what his price is gonna command. I think we need to spend at least our 2nd round pick on Right Tackle.
Its frustrating for the last 5 years we seem to have the same discussions for these same damn positions. Whats your plan at these starting spots for 2015?
the last line is as true as truth can be!!!
Has SM been a trader in the past, or has his drafts tended to be the picks he goes in with. I could see him being the kind of guy that knows the position each of his draft picks is at and him knowing exactly what/who he wants there.

Sure, an upgrade at Right Tackle is needed, but the 82 Hogs couldn't block for our starting QB. Bad QBs get sacked behind any line.
See Jason Campbell. Constantly under pressure, O-line blamed incessantly. Insert Todd Collins (not exactly a future hall of famer) and the pressure miraculously goes away.
The Line will play better when there's a capable QB behind them.
check out this play. watch how Everson Griffin and Anthony Barr pretend like our Oline is invisible. dude has to make a highlight play just to dump it off on a checkdown? right side is garbage. period. nothing to do with qb.

I would rather eat clam chowder directly off of a public bathroom floor than pay Dashon Goldson 3 million dollars a year.

looks like he ran back too far, beyond where the OL was supposed to set on that play. there was a pocket there, he was just 10 feet behind it.

RG3 immediately took a 3 step drop out of shotgun.
Who knows if the play was designed to be a 3 step drop out of shotgun. i dont. I do know it must be frustrating to be a tackle, you block for a 3-5 step drop perfectly but your QB decided to take a 10 step drop, fans blame you for the sack anyway.
i imagine every D coord just tells his edge rushers to go wide and up the field 10 yards, dont worry the QB will be there.
- it looks like a busted screen play

he actually took a 5 step drop out of shotgun, i'm pretty sure that's not normal.
to be fair, compton got completely manhandled too. it is what it is i guess.

RG3 took sacks last season at a historic rate | ProFootballTalk (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/01/02/rg3-took-sacks-last-season-at-a-historic-rate/)
Yea right. Doesn't have a darn thing to do with our QB huh.
