That's fine as a good ground game keeps the other team's offense off the field. But in order to chew up yards we need at least 2 outstanding guards. Probably not available in the draft so maybe Art II is thinking about bringing in some FA's. Who's available out there we can afford?

Couldn't agree more! If we had 2 stud guards the O would be unstoppable with Pouncey in the middle. No more penetration into the backfield on running plays and no more pressure up the middle on passing plays. The best in the draft is Decastro, which we are too far down to get. But we could get Glenn out of Georgia. Big kid. I hope we go that way and draft a couple of OG's and then try to pick up defensive backfield help in FA.

lucky for us this year, the o-line may be the deepest part of this draft. glenn however is better at pass protection then run blocking. bigger is not always better for this. ( kemoeatu) ( starks) (foster) (essex) ( scott)
faneca was about 305. pouncey is about the same. much better run blockers then the forementioned.

I'd like a more balanced attack, but Art II sounds like he wants to go back to Ben's rookie season style of offense.

As I recall, we were 15-1 that season were we not?
