It may surprise many that some forum members are very good at presenting real facts. In fact, some are regular contributors, while others just post their complaints or opinions.

As I posted before, the College Bowl games will soon be airing and it's not that hard to wright down a name/position/team that could increase our forums knowledge base. Before we know it the Draft will be upon us, lets be good scouts now.

The first problem is that (other than Jahri Evans) we seem reluctant to acquire FA's on the line. The learning curve is relatively long for offensive linemen and letting them make their mistakes elsewhere before signing them here would be the correct strategy, if we had the willingness.

OGs yeah it happens, but then you have to pay expensive prices for an OG... which normally is not good for the cap.

But it's sort of like the learning curve is relatively long for QBs too... and letting them make their mistakes elsewhere before signing them here would be nice... but teams normally don't let their top QBs go. Yes there is always a few exceptions with the likes of Peyton Manning, Drew Brees.... but look at all the other teams... there clearly isn't enough good ones of those FAs to go around. Same is true with OL (and all positions).
