At least if you sort C, both guards and LT, you give your QB and running game a chance. If the QB isn't worried about his backside, he can read the right side rush at least. If you sort the RT then you can move the pocket to the right.
If they don't at least keep Leno, then they have to get a starting LT and LG as priority, on the assumption that C and RG are at least stable.

Leno restructured contract earlier this year means if we cut him after the season, we take a big cap charge for 2024. Also Leno has been good this season, maybe his best season here, but he will be 33. I think he sticks next year.
Imo Gates needs to be cut after the season, cap charge of over 5 million in 2024. Add that Roullier that we are still paying on NEXT season too…we will have over NINE million in dead cap at Center!!! Talk about mismanagement
Wylie I think sticks too, his cap charge is high but he is serviceable and can play RG as well.
Tyler Larson free agent and Stromberg injured…we have nothing at Left Guard except poor fucking Ron draft picks.
We need a starters at Center and Left Guard immediately.
