    can you imagine a QJ project on the OLine? you would have to pull him.
    First round pick Zion still not very good with 2 full seasons under his belt.

      You may be right. Remember that SB they got spanked by TB...? Both their OT's got hurt... and the team folded.
      Protect the QB
      Run the ball
      Play great defense

        Zion and slater were 1st rd picks as G, they could benefit from a true LT at #5

        fill WR and RB in 5th rd like rams did with Karen Williams and Puka. Offense is now fixed. Used 2,3,4 on Defense.
        sign Allen and Mack.

          Sure, but the refs were way more than partial to NE, for years.

            I’m gonna trust the new coaching staff on whether we need elite beef or an elite weapon with that first pick..

              I thought we hit gold with Aboushi... until he got injured.

                Must have a solid to great Center this season and the future.It is a huge hole on this o line.I say grab Bowers first(if Harrison is gone)best RT in the 2nd,which there should be a few and Van Prant or Jackson at center in the 3rd.Rest go defense unless a great RB or WR slides way down.We ain't goin to the Superbowl next year and there's no way to fix this shitty front office's drafting in one season.Go offense heavy this year and protect the franchise which is without a doubt Herbert.Try to go Defense heavy in free agency and the following season's draft.

                    Goff has all day to complete that pass while Aaron Donald cannot do anything

                      would have won it with their tackles

                        Slater was never picked to be a G. Not sure what you mean by that.

                        5th rd picks are low probability - don’t just pick the rare puka - most 5th rounders across all teams do not become premier players.

                        We need real running backs. Dont’ fuck around waiting for a lucky 5th rd flier, pick a legit RB by R3.

                          Sorry was looking at the draft info, bottom line is we need more OL and at #5 you cannot pass on that position. Look at all the years we could not get the ball to Allen, MW and running the ball up the gut.

                          keep build the OL and Herbert can pass it to anybody
