    Jake Locker played seven games in Oher's year. Mett is a statue.

    My point remains.

    Outside of Khalil, who I know is one of the better Cs in the league and Oher, who I know is absolute dog ****, I have no idea about the other guys.

    Carolina is proof that you don't need all pro talent at five spots though. Five guys who work together and communicate is more important.

    I see some games missed last season but 14 or more starts in four of the last five seasons.

    I don't think it's realistic to think the Titans can do better with what's available in this free agency class. He's a major upgrade over Bell. And, personally, I don't care if they have to overpay. They have to protect Mariota.

    I want to see Robinson go after Alshon Jeffrey and Lamar Miller. Matt Forte might be a nice one to two year fix, but I am really worried about paying big bucks for a RB who may not have anything left in the tank. Miller makes more sense, and we can try to get our franchise RB in next year's draft, when it should be an exceptional class.

    Just don't expect pro bowl blocking out of this guy. He's been the bruised spot on Cincy's line for some time..

    You don't think he'd upgrade Bell?

    My fix for the OL is Alex Mack at center...give Mariota a perenial pro-bowl center to work with and let Schwenke/Gallick learn from a vet. I would let Warmack, Poutasi, Spain, Looney, and a vet battle it out for the OG spots. I draft Tunsil with the #1 pick. You can't have too many good OTs.

    I like the idea of a Lewan, Poutasi, Mack, Warmack, and Tunsil OL as a line that could be really dominant for many years if they can stay healthy.

    Next season will be his last year under contract. Might as well keep him and it's not like we would be saving much money if we did cut him.

    I say keep him, give him another chance to battle it out. If anything it creates more competition for C position if we bring/draft someone else in.
