Speaking of, Reiter has been serviceable. He’s most certainly not a big problem like Wylie. If we can get him back at a fair deal I’d say do it. If not? Who cares? This draft is very good at C. We could definitely get a quality C in rd 2.
IMO if we’re going to be spending big money it needs to be for a pass rusher. That was a big problem last year and I don’t see it getting any better without another force opposite of Clark.
And yeah if we draft a DE rd 1 that will be fine, but I think that’s the underlying problem. But hey I’m still of the opinion that LT is on the table in round 1. The value at that position looks to be as good as any draft I’ve ever seen.

I honestly don't see them going into the season with a rookie starting on the offensive line. They could take a tackle but I imagine he'd be a backup.
As for center, Reiter was adequate, sure. Linsley is a clear upgrade though, and if the price differential is $3M AAV on $10M plus, I'm taking Linsley without hesitation. It's all about market price.
Now if Reiter wants to come back at say $6M AAV, then that's a completely different discussion. And as with OT, I don't see them starting the season with a rookie starting at center.
