To me the center is the only spot we are just thin at.

if u look across the nfl at the best lines, I am confident most teams, are allowing there vet lines some grace time. I know dallas is, philly had both tackles held out the last two practices, I don't know about the giants. If we get to the baltimore game and our oline starters don't take the field as a unit for several series, then I will worry.

One final point, there just isn't much talent sitting out there that would upgrade your two concerns, health and age. Levi jones would, but as I said earlier he is waiting, otherwise who do we plug in that would be better than the youth we already have, and are trying to train (rinehart, williams the center, bridges).

I don't expect this line to be all-pro hogs style. But I expect that our talent positions, CP, Campbell, will be given enough time and holes to get a better job done.

By the way, the line about the koolaid was classic

Let's keep drinking at least until we see the group in action, I do have an extra cup if you want one

Can you put about 3 ounces of vodka in that cup before you pass it over....

I worry more about our line because I think the other 3 lines in the division are proven compared to our's which was an obvious question mark going to the offseason. Obviously, little was done to upgrade it.

I think Bridges could start game one and it would not hurt us at all. In fact, I believe he may earn a starting spot at guard or tackle outright.

I am glad that Reinhart is doing better but I am not sure he can be trusted yet.

I know Heyer will come back but I don't know if I feel comfortable with him as the starter even if he is 100%.

It seems that Jones may be too expensive so they should see if Runyan might have some interest. He is definitely familiar with the division... I really never wanted to see him in the Redskins uniform but oh well.
