Posted April 26, 2019 Brother, of course we did. By trading back into the FIRST ROUND, we manipulated the fifth year options for what will be the core of our starting Oline. While every other team that drafts their Olinemen in the second round and beyond will be trying to figure out how to pay to keep them, we will be exercising our fifth year options with these guys...

The guys that we paid in FA are not top prospects, these guys are. Also, with the guys we picked up in FA, these young guys don't need to get thrown to the wolves immediately. We can let them compete for positions, and allow them to develop if they're not the best option on day 1. This is actually a pretty smart approach.

If we were going to draft lindstrom, we knew the whole time he would be available at 14 so why sign 2 guards to big money? I would have rather spent it on the D. And we are stuck with both guys for 2 years regardless of how much they ride the pine, and one of them will isproab, KCFalcon22, PokerSteve and 2 others like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt was running for his life last year. Having the depth on the OL will truly be a blessing. I understand the concern about the DL and the lack of depth there. We still have 7 picks to address that. There will probably be more trades as well. There are other possibilities as well. OilFuturesTrader19, RookieBird, Marco102 and 8 others like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
