    Can say the same about our OL in recent years and look how that's turned out.....

    Yeah, two years ago at this time we thought we had the best OL in the NFL. Nothing is for sure.

    Kendall is solid and I expect him to bounce back now that he knows the offense better

    Douglas is a dependable vet but nothing special

    DGB is a wildcard. Tons of talent but very very raw. He may take some time if he can avoid being suspended :)

    Hunter is an even bigger wildcard. Still too skinny and raw and apathetic

    Nicks we took a flyer on. Doubt he will repeat what he did a few years ago. At best he is a decent number 3/4. At worst he is useless.

    I learned long ago that what looks good on paper doesn't always pan out in reality. That said, I'm feeling good about this group. May take some time for everything to gel but I'm loving the potential.

    Hunter is dead to me. But like Ensc said, maybe the drafting of DGB will finally light a fire under him (won't hold my breath). Even without him though, I like this group. I think Douglas isn't given enough credit by a lot of fans. I think he's more than capable of holding down that 2nd spot on the outside if necessary.

    New QB, new receivers, new tackle and hopefully a new scheme to fit Mariota's strengths. Who knows what we have here? On paper it looks good, but in the end we all know what that paper is good for. I hope the returners are tired of looking like under performers, and I hope Mariota brings the confidence of his success with him and it rubs off. On paper last year this team should have been much better than 2-14, and hopefully the slide from 7-9 in 2013 was due to new schemes on offense and defense and lack of anything consistent under center. Only time will tell, but we should have been better without Fitzpatrick, not worse.

    I think everyone was disappointed, but the Offense as a whole last year sucked. Honestly, I still think it starts with the Offensive Line.

    If that unit is able to first stay healthy and then play as a unit reflective of the resources the team invested into that position group. I think offensively we could be really good! Now just have to start to look to upgrade the RB group.
