Slightly off topic, but what are your guys' thoughts on Kelechi Osemele & Brandon Brooks? Bigger bodies, so not quite sure how they'd fit in our system. Brooks moved extremely well in the combine, but those numbers can be deceiving. There isn't anything really scheduled to be appealing at Offensive Tackle in Free Agency and guard looks to be the best spot to look at if we're talking O-Line. Get an upgrade there, use our 1st on an offensive tackle (there are a few I really like), and then draft the BPA at Center or Guard sometime in the 3rd-5th range to compete at that position. At this point, I'd definitely be happy about moving up in the first round for one of Laremy Tunsil or Ronnie Stanley....Might be others I like just as much like Jack Conklin, but I haven't seen enough to be confident that they're worth trading up for (and this is assuming we have a pick in the 20's).
Thoughts?
It sounds like Osemele and Brooks are good fits for ZBS and are going to be among the highest paid at their position. Would be nice though since they're considered among the best. It seems like they should go after some good solid vets that'll be relatively affordable like RT-Joe Barksdale, G-Mathis, G-Incognito, C-Wisniewski,
re-sign Okung then pickup a couple high draft picks. Maybe they could trade Graham or Baldwin if they really want to spend big money on OL or if Frank Clark breaks out, trading Bennett could be a possibility.
But they've always neglected the OL so I have little faith they'll be willing to do anything significant to improve it.
