This franchise needs to be very careful how they move forward. Pat just saw what's possible when you have a GM and owner who are actually willing to do whatever it takes to put the absolute best team on the field, and just what kind of team could still be built if this franchise was handling things the way they should instead of using Pat as their crutch to cover the countless warts he has for 5 years now. He's going to be 30 soon, and enough is enough.

I think this is a little extreme. Yeah do better but its not like there hasn't been an effort. They've invested a 2,3,2 traded a 1 with kick back for obj, tried to pay him more than he got on the open market, tried to trade for Trent Williams and haven't had a viable first round tackle option even where they've traded up. There's a lot more to it than just go get a good one. The best ones have all been developed maybe 1 in 10 start day one and are "Good". What they need to do is get Kinsley to Duke Mannywether right ****ing now and hope for improvement before FA and the draft. The kid has the size he was just mentally overwhelmed.
