He will eventually be protecting our billion dollar GOAT QB and you DO NOT want a lackadaisical attitude on the o-line. People can rip Parcells and Bellichek all they want but I do agree with them when it comes to evaluating a kid's desire to play in the NFL (a la the love for the game as thee top question). IF their love of football is not the first mentioned after God,Country and family then there is a huge problem.
We have needs right now. Had he not taken the C-19 out and boned up mentally while rehabbing with the team and then is eventually worked in as a back up guard then that is just that much more depth that allows Andy a little bit more flexibility with this recent adverse situation with Fisher. Not saying he would have eventually started or even taken a snap BUT it is one more card Andy could've played IF need be. Just saying. |

He opted out of one season of football and suddenly he doesn't love the game. You're priceless dude. Don't ever stop. |

Is Mahomes tough? The evidence says yes. But, his words and demeanor don’t scream tough SOB. I’ll take your hit, then I’ll throw a TD. |

Awful lot of assumption and unknowing psyche projection here.
We don’t know Niang’s situation. We do know Williams opted out because of his mother’s cancer, but that’s because he volunteered it. Maybe Niang had a family situation. Maybe he was going to be rehabbing so long he decided he’s just going to focus on rehab and lace them up next year. Maybe he has a health condition that puts him at high risk. We don’t know. And marching in one protest where every photo/video of him shows him masked up and maintaining distance doesn’t mean his reasoning was off or selfish or that he doesn’t love football. |

With Fisher sidelined with Achilles...
Trent Williams Nick Allegreti Rookie/Reiter on reasonable deal LDT Lucas Niang Once Fisher gets healthy... Eric Fisher Nick Allegreti Reiter/draft pick Lucas Niang Trent Williams Trent still has shown to be Abe to play at an elite level, has been willing to play either side of the line and is old with no rings. I’d be shocked if Veach doesn’t target him. |

You think Veach is going to target a 33 year old lineman who commands a 12m / year salary huh

Fisher is entering the last year of his contract and will miss significant time at the start of the season in the year we want to be the first to win 3x Super Bowls in a row. Schwartz is likely to retire, too. Adding Trent Williams solves a whole lot of short term problems as well as helps the long term outlook. |

I expect this offseason to see big investments in the OL. Big investments at the skill positions have been the norm. Now it’s time to bolster the OL in front of Mahomes, CEH, Williams and others. |
