My point was we had somewhat of an investment in it. Fluker came with Solari.
Tomlinson was awful last year. We had every intent of rolling with Harris/Olu at C.
I think it's a multi layered issue. Investment being one. Coaching being another.
If we would to trust PPF, individuals on our OL are getting good grades:
Cross (83.7 overall, pass blk 69.7 , run blk 82.8)
Laken (66.3 overall, pass blk 62.8, run blk 68.4)
Connor (63.1 overall, pass blk 62.2, run blk 71.3)
Frankly the left side read like a good OL, let's compare to the premier OL from Detriot:
LT Decker - 68.3, 71, 45.8
LG Glasgow - 59.3, 62.9, 57.7
C Ragnow - 81.4, 56.8, 90 2
RG zeitlrr - 76.7, 66.6, 75
RT Sewell - 86.7, 80.6, 86
Their left side and ours, PFF grading wise, is similar. Our problem are the RG and RT, with RG being the most disappointing. We can at least blame injuries on RT situation.
To my untrained eyes, the bigger problem is that our OL isn't playing as a unit; they're pretty disjointed. Heck, I could say that about the whole offense.
