    For me it is funny, IF you listen to Ramon Foster's Pod Cast with DK, He believes the Steelers do not need any O-line help at all in this draft. He says that both Moore and Chuks are going to be good for next year, and we just need to give Moore another year at LT to truly settle in.

    Ramon is All-In on the Steelers drafting nothing but Defense in the early part of the draft.

    For me it is funny, because I think he is crazy, but he may know something about O-Line players developing into capable starters with a couple of years of NFL experience under their belts.

    They need depth at the tackle position, their only backup is LeRaven Clark and he's not very good.

    He is telling You what I've, and Some others have been saying for .....Hell I don't even know how long.
    Some see a sack, and automatically pin it on whomever was guarding that Guy, and that is not how it works. Plenty of factors lead to that.

    Depth is not a 1st, or 2nd round pick though.

    Unless you want Moore to be the depth :)

    I want a true “QB’s best friend” kind of LT for Kenny, and I’d trade up in the 1st to get him. I also think Chuks needs to be replaced sooner rather than later, and that can be had a bit later. I think Wright is 75%+ likely to be available at #17, and I see him as a Top 5 RT by 2024. For me it’s not about depth, though if we don’t draft a starting tackle early we do need a better swing tackle behind Moore and Chuks.

    If they pick a tackle in the 1st or the 2nd they can become the starter, then Moore or Chuks could be the depth, although Chuks makes too much to be a swing tackle.
