I think this OL will be great if not elite, but that 2003-ish OL had 2 HOFers and Brian Waters who is 26th on Pro Football Reference’s HOF Monitor (so we had 2 top 30 All Time Guards). Roaf is also listed as the 4th tackle on the list.
This OL can absolutely be better at C and RT than those teams. Thuney could be in the Waters-Shields conversation someday.
Way too early to mention Brown with Roaf. Maybe someday, but not yet.
I love what we’ve seen from Smith but let’s see it on Gameday too before we get too excited.
