The consensus generally is #22. I've seen them as high as #16 in one ranking. Someone on PFF said that Rivers has had only one offensive line ranked higher than #16 in his career: the 2006 team. Can't quite believe that the 2007 - 2010 offensive lines were sub par.

I'd love for this OL to finish the year ranked #16 (by whatever nebulous formula they use)

Guaranteed SB Champs! We can probably win it with a # 25 - 30 PFF OL ranking.

Bold prediction: the OL becomes a top 10 PFF ranked unit this season. Forrest Lamp becomes a starter and flashes Pro Bowl ability. Feeney improves to fulfill the promise he showed as a rookie. Pipkins displaces Tevi and dominates.

And Okung/Pouncey don't start falling apart.

If those two are reasonably healthy, this Oline should be better - if only for the sake of continuity. Curious about Quesenberry's development: they can use him to give Pouncey some games off.

PFF bases their grades exclusively on past performances. Problem is, and PFF did the study that proves it, player development is closely tied to the # of reps a player gets. Tevi and Feeney are both getting to the sweet spot where they have gotten enough reps that we will finally see how good they will be. Tevi was a 1st year starter with few game reps and not much practice experience. He got a lot better as the season went on, although he was pretty bad at the start. Feeney was similar. I am not sure how they decide on Lamp's grades.

If that arrives, it's a sure Super Bowl's trip!

I agree with the Lamp sentiment - I predict he is our best linemen by the end of the year.

He's certainly our most motivated lineman.
