Not a problem. I mean Fisher will be back in 6 months at 100% according to the Planet. All we need is more weapons.

Not everybody is going to get what they want. That's how the offseason works. Somebody always ends up disappointed. Hell, sometimes we ALL end up disappointed. I think you're putting an awful lot of hope in the idea that Andy Reid is just going to give up on his very first draft pick as a Chief, especially when the guy has been a rock solid contributor until now. It was a freak injury and there's no indication at this point that it's going to be a long-term problem. You've got your heart set on them taking a LT in the draft and you're so focused on it that if it doesn't happen, you're going to be bitter. In fact, as evidenced by the post I quoted, you're ALREADY bitter about it. |

He’s gonna be cheap and has high upside. It might end in disaster with an injury but they’re gonna have to take some chances like that on the ol with the resources they have available

He Vp was hurt early enough to be able to recover in time to earn his way back on the field and will be vet min cheap...with the new rules, he’s free. I understand your concern but there’s a reason he’s penciled in and it’s not in ink. We’re going to be tight to the cap and a few moves like that need to happen and hit.

I think you bring back Osemele on another cheap deal if he clears a physical. But I think Alegretti is serviceable at LG.
Fisher's not likely ready to play in September. Mid-season at earliest is probably realistic. You hope Niang could fill in, but that's also a question mark. I really think this is the spot where you hope an older vet chasing a ring would come in, spell Fisher and then become your 6th man/swing tackle when Fisher's ready. Schwartz expecting to be healthy is a big plus. The OT situation is much less scary. I'd prefer to let Reiter and Wylie walk, they're just not good enough. We need a Center and perhaps another guard. LDT is an okay starter. I think getting a little better/more physical up front will keep defenses honest and we won't have to scheme around the talent deficiencies as much. |

I’d bring this dude back on the PS and let him heal up. The guy was ****ing awesome at LG last year. Even if he was 75% of that he’s still a huge bonus to have for a cheap deal.

It seems to me that the 'blueprint to beat The Chiefs' has actually now been proven.
If you can get consistent pressure with 4 and cover with 7 you can give Mahomes fits. We can't run the ball consistently to keep defenses honest. If you can limit Hill and Kelce, and can score points yourself, you can beat The Chiefs. There are two answers to the problem: a healthy and dangerous 'X' receiver to threaten defenses further. Improved offensive line play. Not just from The Super Bowl, but overall, in general. Additionally, we need another dynamic edge rusher to complement Jones and Clark. It can all be done, and I trust Veach to do it. |

Fisher - surgery to fix achilles Niang - surgery to fix hip labrum LDT - injury prone the last 3 seasons before he opted out Schwartz - surgery to fix his back The absolute last thing this OL needs is to pencil in another dude that most likely won't make it through the season. Same goes with the draft. **** taking a prospect like Dickerson or Little. That'd be horrible. |

Osemele wouldn’t be penciled in as a starter in my scenario, he’d be depth on the PS in case we ****ing lost tons of OL like last year and had no other options.
