[QUOTE="4zone, post: 661004, member: 10846"] Injuries are the critical factor in any given year. Last year proved disasterous when one of the OT's went down, let alone both of them in the same game. Can't afford to risk the franchise like that again. And second, with all the FA's on the OL next year you can bet we can't afford all of them. So expect to lose at least one, if not two. If we pick Conklin, you can bet the bank he will end up on the field at some point in the year, if not having to start for a lineman who gets put on the IR. A year to pick up the system and work with the other lineman can't be overstated. They draft is deep in the DL and we can get a solid guy in Rd 2. The LB's are thin but the bulk of the quality that is there can be had in rounds 3&4. So given the value of the position, the exposed need there last year, and depth or lack of talent at the other positions of need would really make this a great option for us. Having said that, if the run is on OL instead of DL because of the depth there, we could easily find ourselves in an entirely different position. The question was hypothetical and I think we got some good dialog going on it. Who's to say who is right and who is wrong, the fun is in the jousting! [/QUOTE]
