How can the O Line be such a mess?

    I think this, or I want to believe this. I just hope its enough. The only problem I see in this thought process is they won't be going against backups, and now they will actually be scheme against, but I still think what you said will be true. We shall see

    which lineman are you most worried about? I’m concerned about Cook. I believe we protected him a lot last year with a heavy set with either an additional oline or Washington beside him. My concern is with a 3 wr set he will more than likely be left on an island which is concerning.

    Well the Steelers have invested heavily in the offense line in the past four seasons.

    A bust like Jones does not help. We could have had several player ( 7 ) made the pro bowl pick after him in the first 50 NFL picks that year. He was a miss. Frazier was a hit. Fautanu better be at least average as a starter. It too way too early to judge Iheanachor and Dunker.

    Its clear that dafting and development was a disaster under Tomlin. We can only hope it gets better.

    Im worried about the whole dang line outside of the center. Im wondering if moving everyone is a bad thing, and not a good thing, but we shall see

    It looks like Fautanu has settled down a bit. I hope so. If they can’t get it right it’s gonna be hard to run a three wide receiver set. They will have to out Washington out there to help and it will be quick -asses and dump offs to Jalen.
