To all the doubters... we're gonna be ok. We'll have a nice roster by the time OTA's start and undoubtedly more depth on both lines than we've had in at least a few years.

Getting Barnes has little to do with drafting an OT at number 13 in my opinion. Samuels is 32 and is on the decline. Hopefully one of the big4 fall to us then we have our LT for the next ten years. But don't forget that Barnes is only 27 and could hold down the RT position for the next 5-6 years. Considering our needs and how many draft picks we have, we need to sign more linemen in my opinion. Barnes would be great but we need some talented youth outside of the draft to have enough depth.
