OL is by no means the only problem but it is the biggest problem. I think we need, in no order, OL, WR, LB, and a pash rushing DE. |

Trade back, get an extra 2nd and 4th. Use some of the 5th rd picks to move up into the 3rd. That gets you 4 picks in the top 100 to get 2 quality OL, a DE and a LB. WR can wait until the later rds or you can usually pick a vet FA for fairly cheap for their 3rd/4th option. It would of been nice to get a comp pick for an EB hiring but apparently he's not impressing anybody and his past from a decade ago still haunts him.

Exactly. This teams fortunes are going to live and die with Mahomes. Keeping him upright is priority number one. You keep him upright by protecting him and opening running lanes. Brady has won 7 because he’s been protected. These injuries Patrick has add up - ask Andrew Luck.

If somehow we can get a good LT in free agency them I would sign off on quantity and going for numbers. |

I think you can get a quality LT early in the 2nd. Don't sacrifice good because they're not great and don't be afraid to get a guy just because some draft guru says he's "an end of rd2/early 3rd". That would be my 1st pick unless there was absolutely no value at that point.

Getting pressure goes out the window when the other team is up by 2-3 scores. You can’t pin your ears back and rush the passer. And the Bucs ran a lot more.

I'll go further. Seldom get a real left tackle past 15th overall. Maybe this year OL is a bit more loaded but we need to move up, not down if we are getting it in the draft. |

Agreed, I think its pretty hard to overstate the effect that accident had on Andy's mindset

The injuries mahomes has had weren't because of the oline though

This year, you could easily argue his toe was because of our OL. For one thing, we would not be running QB option every time we need a first down, if we had a decent OL. Also, if we want him to play for 15 more years (we do)... then we need to figure out a way to protect him better. |

Also; in a covid year where there isn't going to be a normal combine, and a lot of college teams didn't play or play full seasons, teams that have a stable front office and coaching staff have a huge advantage. So we're in good position to have a knock-out draft. |
