Guys like Reiter and Wylie are fine when they're next to players like Fisher and Schwartz and at one time, LDT. But you're never going to have "5 Studs" on the offensive line unless you're willing to sacrifice more important positions such as DE, Safety, CB, WR and TE.

Well, that's why I advocate moving OL up in priority within the draft. You don't have to have #1's everywhere, but mid-round interior guys are going to have more upside than UDFA's typically speaking.
I know we're not going to be able to be the top line in football, but we clearly have some weak spots. A better line makes your skill talent better too, you know.
Hell I'm fine with Alegretti in there at LG if we upgrade at Center.
