We have brought in TEs, DEs, and practically Pizza Delivery men to play OL.
Weirdly, it works.
Sort of.
Because while you are spinning up this lineman into being a professional, he is blowing assignments, screwing up, letting people past, and struggling. Which means, the guys to his left or right (or both) often have to compensate for him. And in doing, cannot concentrate on their own job.
We have seen this. Not a mystery.
So even when it works, you only get an effective lineman for close to half the time you could.
But Pete wants to run the ball. And run blocking is easier than pass blocking.
(Honestly, we used to have a strategy of putting scrubs in and just diving at the knees of the defenders. But then the NFL outlawed that, because it was illegal cut blocking.)
Generally building an org, you get the people you with expertise/ability you focus on most. Pete focuses on versatility and on run blocking. So we get that. But our best weapons are in the passing game. The game itself is rigged to favor the passing game.
We throw resources into building a line but we do a terrible job of it and that is likely because we never prioritized having a good pass blocking line.
It makes complete sense Wilson would be frustrated. WE are frustrated and we don't even take the hits.
Throwing a bunch of garbage at the wall to see what sticks is not an effective strategy. But it appears to be the plan with the OL and has been for some time. Pete literally does the absolute minimum he has to as a coach on offense, and he applies this ridiculous strategy to his OL as well.
Shockingly, the OL rarely is very effective.
