What grinds my gears around here is the notion that money/draft picks spent on another position was somehow stolen from the offensive line or that we've ignored that position group which is completely false.

You made some good points there; nice post.
And I'm not one that thinks the FO ignored the O-line, because they obviously didn't, but I guess I just don't like the fact that they're so willing to spend money at WR, but not O-line. It just doesn't seem right. But your points about chemistry and scheme fit are spot on.
