Playing for the Playoffs... and 2020
PostPosted:4 years 6 months ago
I'm a fan of Whitworth's but his prime is over. There is NO way we can afford to pay him what he would want and still sign Ramsey, Littleton and Fowler Jr. I still think we will only be able to sign two of them, and Fowler, with the young depth behind him, is the guy we can't afford. Cory makes so many big plays....man he might be my favorite player right now.
My take on our Oline next year....I think Noteboom already is a better LT than he is a LG. Regardless of where Edwards says he wants to play, he's my RT and Hav goes into RG. Rob is pretty tough, but doesn't excel in space. I think Rob will become a much better OG. Hopefully Evans, moving inside will become a starter. I'm still mixed on Allen as our starting c. Most centers are the smallest guys on the Oline because it's better that they are quick, rather than bulked up. I think he will pan out. I just think that when you have a guy Allen's size in the middle, you'd better surround him with bigger OG's than Blythe. The best OG's seem to be in the 330 range, right?
Obviously, at the very minimum, we will need more depth, either thru f/a and/or the draft.
