I agree that we're weak in OL depth, but really? None of these guys can play? Rinehart at least has looked good in the snaps he has gotten.

Rinehart played well with the rest of the first-team o-line. This is the one thing that folks should keep in mind, the entire 2nd string line playing will not look good, but I think one of them playing with the 1st-team should be ok. Since Randy Thomas is probably the most injury prone at this point, I would be ok with Rinehart subbing in (and hopefully that would help with the rest of his development). Now at the tackle position, if we loose Samuels to injury, we'd be screwed no matter who replaced him. But as someone said earlier, I think we are pretty weak at tackle depth.

Find me an NFL team where all of the second team offensive linemen play like first teamers.
