Football is a war of attrition that is won in the trenches.

We got no linemen on either side of the ball if we count Jenkins as an OLB.

In my book that's a 300 pound problem.

Cute post.

Our rostered linemen:

C - Montgomery
G - Boyle, Chester, Gettis, Hurt, LeRibeus, Lichtensteiger (G/C)
T - Williams, Polumbus, Pashos, Trueblood, Compton


That's 12 total, at least 10 or 11 capable linemen including one elite LT in Trent Williams.

Also, last year, these guys helped us towards the #1 rushing offense in the NFL and the 5th-ranked offense overall.

We did exactly what we needed to do this draft...secondary, secondary and more secondary. Wit the other picks, we added some RBs since we really only have 2 healthy RBs on the team and a depth problem. Jordan Reed was too good to pass up and will make this offense even more dangerous.

We didn't need to draft linemen. Once the first few rounds and the legitimate starting-caliber RTs were gone, there's no need to waste a pick on O-line depth. We have plenty of young reserves in LeRibeus, Compton, Hurt, Gettis.
