punk does have a point. You can't just replace an entire offensive line in one offseason. At some point, you have to give them some time to become a cohesive unit. They didn't really play together all off season last year.
I mean Jerry did pretty much exactly what he said he was going to do early in the offseason. Draft a G/C type.
The OL does need a leader and I hope Frederick can fill that role. He's obviously smart, so I'm hoping he plays center and handles the calls. If anyone else is brought in, it might be nice to see someone like Brandon Moore for a year or two since he is familiar with Callahan's system. Free did his best work when he was next to an established vet in Kosier. And, if Parnell wins that job, which he might, it'd be the same deal. Pair a young guy with an established vet.

Huh. I guess I just assumed he was a Cali kid. Yeah, that'd be weird...until your first paycheck. lol

Huh?
I go straight to Ditka, then DuPree.
(I realize that LaFleur wore it too, but Ditka more than offsets IMO).

I associate that number with boring blocking TEs, not dynamic pass catchers.

Frederick, RT and RG?
Or Costa, Frederick and RT?
Honestly, the best thing they can do is sign Brandon Moore. Sandwich him between Frederick and Parnell/Free.

am I the only one intrigued by him? he seemed to hold his own whenever he played. that's not to say we shouldn't kick Clabo's or Winston's tires.
He played well when we put him out there. I'm not sure why he didn't get much playing time over Free when it was clear that Free was the worst tackle in the league.

Yeah I always find myself impressed when he plays. Of course, Free impressed me early too
I would not be surprised to see them going into camp and let Free/Parnell battle it out and the loser is the swing
Which, if that is the plan, makes signing Moore even more important. Wedge the vet who knows the system between the rookie and the young guy (assuming Parnell wins)

Seems funny that most of us have so much hope in a veteran tackle who's still available this late in the game, BUT man will I feel better about our chances next year if we sign him. I feel like we have 4 unknowns and 3 weak spots on the O Line right now. Hopeful about the unknown (Frederick) and then Clabo would bring us down to 2 weak spots. Hopefully, one of those 2 is weeded out with some real competition in camp.
