But if I'm the Redskins (and I'm not) I would counter with well we drafted Rinehart in the 3rd round in 2008 with the expectation he would develop into our RG starting in 2009 given the opportunity, we went younger at LG with a proven starter in Derrick Dockery, we signed two other veteran starters in Mike Williams and Jeremy Bridges (who can play both G/T), we've made a commitment to youth on our interior with Edwin Williams and Will Montgomery. So it's not like we ignored the offensive line. We have targeted offensive linemen as often (if not more often) these past 10 years than our predecessors did the 10 years before.
All to which I would counter back with why did you bench Rinehart after two games then, why didn't you keep Jeremy Bridges, and why is your back-up LT (to a guy you knew you had to "monitor" because of his knee) a guy who's bounced around the league for years. Your problem isn't addressing the line, it's how you address it.
And then they would say Smoot what happened to us? We used to be so close? Was it something we did? Something we said?
And I would say Just don't talk to me right now. I can't look at you
And then they would say if that's how you feel, maybe we should just call this whole thing off
And then I would say no, wait sorry come back. It's not you, it's just, it's just it's so frustrating right now what's happening
And then they would say we understand, how about if we do something like name Bruce Allen President, Jimmy Raye III General Manager, Pete Carmichael or hey maybe even Brian Schottenheimer head coach, draft a couple of OTs and a RB, maybe trade for a QB...would that make you feel better?
And then I'd give a little smile and say I guess so...and we'd hug it out
