Yesterday, Yooper yodeled
Here we are back to playing musical chairs with the offensive line.
We have been fairly fortunate over the years with our O Line in terms of injury (with the exception of Bulaga...who has missed a number of weeks already at SD)
I thought I also read Linsley was on the injury report with back issues.
We have been playing with fire for years with the Oline....and it may bite us in the ass soon.
We have had some hits....IMO Jenkins was a great pick any way you slice it. Productivity, value AND NEED.
Nevertheless the team has chosen not to address the OLine EARLY in the draft. When we are counting on 4th 5th and 6th round picks to step in in their 1st and 2nd years (especially without a pre-season) we are going pay a price.
In the off-season, we are going to have to allocate a lot of money to Linsley (who had been excellent IMO) and Bakhtiari or we will have huge holes to fill.
We have allocated money and draft picks to other positions, particularly defense (OLB and safety). Those investments need to become productive immediately or we could be in for some tough sledding.
