They have the highest paid interior line in football (certainly Pouncey and Decastro are up there) and can't run the ball through a line of tackling dummies. That's not really about the QB. That's about the line just being bad, despite the investments.

Fair enough. But I would love to have something closer to what they gave Trent and Priest back in the day. But hey, I guess at some level I'm arguing with success. We'll never know but one has to wonder if PMII is as mobile as he is out of necessity (meaning a better line might mean he works from the pocket a lot more often), or would a better O-line be a waste of money they don't have anyway because he'd run out of the pocket anyway, because that's just how he is?

And running around is part of his game. Even with a better line protecting him, he's still going to run around. |

Uhh, no they don't. Decastro counts for just under 10 million of the cap and Pouncey counts for 7 and a half. Dotson is a rookie so he barely even registers.

He's the furthest thing from the traditional 5 or 7 step drop style of QB, which can put the offensive line in a bad place because it's next to impossible to hold a block for 7 seconds. |

You can't devote all your resources to one spot, gotta spread it around.
They've gotta get cheap labor somewhere. A 2/3rd round starting C or G would go a long way. |

Might try Allegreti at C. He played there a couple of times at Illinois. I don't think we've even got another C on the roster for 2021 yet.

I'd sign a free agent C. There will be some good ones.
Then I'd draft a G somewhere in the draft. |

Go out to Spotrac and take a look at the highest paid interior linemen in the league. By and large, you're going to find that 80% of them play for non-playoff teams. |

Yeah, he's been fine at that number. If he needs to be paid more than that, I'll look elsewhere.
