Dislocated knee: QB sneak, not related to o-line play
Concusion/stun: Designed run, not related to o-line play

Sorry, you're going to have to do better than his turf toe injury to justify throwing pretty much every available resource we have at a potentially very small problem.

- LDT: overrated and overpaid. A year removed from football.
- Reiter likely walks in FA.

- nobody, and until they do or don't, there's no need to panic and replace him with anybody we can get our hands on.
- If they say he'll be ready and he says he'll be ready, who are you to say he won't be?
- So since he's never played, we should replace him with someone who's never played? I NEVER said he'd be great. In fact, I never said Niang would be ANYTHING. But until he actually plays, you can't either. He's an unknown, just like EVERY ONE of these guys people want to draft because we need to "fix the line".
- LDT is certainly not overpaid compared to the market. As for overrated, that's fine, but then again, it seems you want to replace EVERYONE, which is just absolutely ****ing laughable.
- Nope, not likely. We have no idea.

Not based in reality at all. At all.

They said Fisher and Schwartz will be back. You obviously have trust issues with a team and front office that won us a Super Bowl - the first one in FIFTY YEARS - 2 years ago and has us right back again this past season. That's the real problem here, not the offensive line.
