Charles Leno.
We'd have given a right arm for the guy that Charles Leno was over about a 3-4 year stretch during his peak this season.
And I've never EVER seen anyone get shredded as badly as he did that night for the Bears. It was Kingsley bad. And the Bears just stuck with him and he's had a hell of an NFL career.
The guys we want are guys we CAN have. We're just gonna have to grow with them a bit. And it's been so long since we've really broken in a new OT (Eric Fisher) that we maybe forgot? Someone like Branden Albert was more the exception than the rule. And it's moreso now than ever with college tackles being less and less prepared for the pro game. They're coming out sooner. They're getting less practice time.
It's just gonna take some bumps in the road.
