First the depth is fine, just some injury prone guys. Then ‘hardly no team has great OL depth’ (except the Packers’ which is fine?). Then even though you started by saying the OL is fine, ‘maybe it’s the OL coach’. <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wink.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" data-shortname=";)" />IMO a lot of the problems along the OL early were injuries. Bakhtiari was playing injured coming out of TC and then missed a couple of games. Sitton had a couple of injuries including chronic back pain. Bulaga had knee surgery and then an ankle injury. Lang is going to have shoulder surgery this off season. Linsley missed 4+ games with an ankle injury. I think we saw how good this OL could be in the second half of 2014 when they all were relatively healthy but staying healthy has been a problem.I think it’s obvious the OL lacks depth. IMO the Packers have one adequate backup and that’s Tretter, but he can only play one spot at a time. I think they are in desperate need of an adequate backup OT and a vet would be ideal because counting upon a rookie is, to say the least, dicey. If they pick one up, along with Tretter they’d be in pretty good shape to handle injuries.</blockquote>
