Two things to add

(1)Guard Valdez and (2)center Bruggeman have been on the PS for 2 years. I do not think they can go back to the PS. (unless the new CBA changes that rule)

That means they must make the 53 man roster this year or they are gone.

That will be very hard unless several O-line players are lost to free agency.

Last year it seemed like the team worked Valdez at RT and Reynolds at RG

That might have been part of Smith's cross training gig.

Remember when Dahl went down in 09, Ojinnaka and Reynolds rotated at Dahl's RG position.

So Reynolds has played RG. I just think of Valdez is a guard but I may be wrong.

It's still going to be hard for Valdez to make the 53 man roster.

Good points and makes our interior line even dicier doesn't it?

I would have preferred trading out of the first and picking up 3 men for the trenches 2 of them on O. The blocking would have improved the passing and the running game.
