There are needs, and then there are needs. OL? Sure, we'll probably draft at least one, maybe two since we have some extra picks left. We'll probably even bring in a couple of UDFAs to camp. But I tend to define needs based at least a little bit on where we draft and I don't expect us to spend second day draft picks on OL, at least not rd 2-3. So yeah, a need, but not the biggest need, which is where we would expect the higher picks we have left to be spent.

Haha, who am I kidding. Eastcoastmediabias! You know they are based in Los Angeles right? Just sayin. LA's got the disease now, too? Guess the analysts brought it with them. Damn.

NFL.com is a stones throw from my house, and I actually peed on it during the shortened preseason. Back to the original topic I agree with Andrea on the needs she listed. However, I think we should look for a diamond in the rough OL every year.

And as for the OL, I agree with others here that the run blocking is better than the pass blocking and there is definitely room for improvement, especially at G. As I recall, I was pretty impressed by how FEW holding penalties we had given how much time Wilson held the ball looking for a receiver and practically running sideline to sideline lol. Gotta give the O line some credit. I was a LT in school, and pass blocking for someone who's running around back there with the ball looking for a WR is tough. Hard to keep track of where he is at any given moment while focusing on your block.

I expect one or two late round picks of OL, plus maybe some UDFA action. Our line is in decent shape, we have time to coach some guys up.

The right side of the line needs to be upgraded some way
