Safe as in I'm sure that Haley threatened to stab him in the eye with a fork if he gave him dog shit linemen to work with for a second straight season. Straight up, the two positions that pissed off Haley more than anything was 1. The entire offensive line, and 2. the entire Wide Receiver corps.
After offering up Ndukwe, Alleman, Goff and Seamus O'Murphy, you can be rest assured that they will be picking more than one offensive lineman in this draft and they will do their due diligence in making sure that they get guys that will be productive at a high level from the day they get to camp. There won't be any projects who have "potential." Smart guys who will be able to pick up and execute the zone blocking scheme quickly. I'd expect guys like Okung (Bulaga and Brown would be options 2 & 3 if Okung isn't there, and he might be gone by the time that Detroit picks), Tennant, Mike Johnson, Zane Beadles, JD Walton, Jeff Byers and the like.
