And it's not just the OTs we've taken vs. the ones we haven't. I mentioned taking Cook ahead of Raimann but we took Skyy Moore ahead of Luke Goedeke as well. We just have to scout/draft/develop the OTs better. We're not doing a good job of it. It's not a question of capital -- its execution. We're doing a bad job there.

These coaches aren’t dumb. Andy is not going to get rid of a tackle that is consistently good in pass pro penalties be damned. And you can be sure as shit that Sean Payton will 100% keep Garrett Bolles after his contract ends this season bc he sure as hell does not want his new QB turned to shit. These guys have massive value. That’s how ****ing bad the Tackle crisis is in this league

Garrett Bolles was every bit as bad his rookie year and going into his second. He's now one of the best LTs in football. Kingsley looks unplayable after a whole 2 games of snaps. Developing players takes time and investment. If we traded up right now and got an Eric Fisher type, people would be PISSED. It took 3 years for him to look decent. He couldn't even play LT his rookie year. And he was the first overall pick for God's sake.

It's just ignorant as ****. He's a fine pass blocker, but he clearly doesn't think so or he wouldn't have to line up in the backfield to do his job even when he knows he's risking a penalty. How many sacks has he more or less cost us in terms of penalty yardage? I'm just over it. I want someone who is capable so they can yank his ass whenever he gets called for it. |

Imagine if we traded and up and got this type of play early on? This place would melt down so hard. Miller is one of the better pass protecting LT’s now btw

Kolten Miller is another one.
His first year he was TRASH. His 2nd year he was mediocre at best. In his third year and beyond, he's been one of the better pure pass protecting OTs in football (and not a bad run blocker). That's just the way OTs develop. The overwhelming majority are hot spiced ass early in their careers and you just have to power through it. EDIT: DAMN YOU, RUN! Beat me by seconds to the Miller comp...

That's the issue. We have a dire need at the LT position and a guy in Taylor who is an above average pass blocker who will, once a game, get you an annoying 5 yard penalty. RT is one of the LAST things we should be worried about right now. Shit, RG has been a bigger problem than RT. DE is a mess. The secondary evidently fell apart when Watson went down so the depth there is awful. Bolton is a pending FA and Tranquil is aging in dog years. Brown and Hopkins are pending FAs, Kelce is as likely to retire as he is get 800+ yards next year. Rice is coming off a knee injury with a possible suspension looming. You really think this team has any business at all putting any capital, draft or cap, into a potential replacement for Jawaan Taylor? I reiterate - you have GOT to get over this. It's not the issue you're making it. It's of far far FAR lesser concern than at least a dozen other issues we're going to have for the remainder of this season and into next season.

The tackle crisis in the league is due to the prevalence of spread formations in college. Very few of these guys play in "NFL" offenses in college anymore. Almost all of them need development. It's just the nature of the game.
