[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 813964, member: 10086"] Yes. Corey Linsley is a great example of how trading picks away (which I’m admittedly a proponent of) can be costly. Sometimes those mid rounders develop into fantastic contributors. I believe GB needs to hit twice at OL between rounds 3-5 where you can typically find highly athletic prospects with sharp edges that need to be rounded out. I don’t want to turn this into an entire draft post, but I also would highly consider drafting at OL now as high as our pick #44, maybe earlier if someone slips down the board. We have the pure #s of picks again. It also never hurts to have O line options in the meantime when a player goes down and it’s nice to have a year or two in a system without the pressure of what Linsley faced on the road at Seattle a few years ago. A higher pick would allow us to wait until round 4-6 for several more developmental OL to round out our depth with more competition. The unfortunate situation with Cole Madison was like disturbing a deposit on an account that was already insufficient in funds. Even then, our attempt to sign him was likely only enough to mask the deifiency until we could address it properly. That was an unfortunate outcome from all angles but that was then this is now. Unless we go all out in FA towards Offense or there is some other trade or extraordinary transactions, 2019 needs to lean towards an Offensive injection of resources. We need our next Linsley success story at either OT or OG [/QUOTE]
