To me...Wirfs is either RT or Guard. IDK...maybe Bolles works at guard as well. Get me Becton and show me Bolles can play guard and I'm all in on drafting OL.

Broncos would have to trade up for Becton, which would be ok with me. Franchise LT's are worth their weight in gold.... and 365 pounds is a lot of gold. I have Becton and Thomas 1a and 1b at the tackle position.

How far up do you think we would have to go to get Simmons?

8?

Some say Detroit. Some say Jacksonville.

Just sign Castonzo and move on if we can't hit on a no brainer.

He's returning to the Colts.

I'm not against drafting OL, but when you break the top guys down, it can get a little harder to find an immediate fit. Becton and Thomas are the top choices for LT...but then where do we put Bolles? Can he move to guard? Wirfs is a straight RT to me and Willis is either a RT or interior lineman. Jones has potential, but he's raw.

they can keep bolles at LT for another year, and plug the rookie in at RT after james gets hurt in week one-- if he even makes it that far. . . the thought of watching eli wilkinson get lock blown up every week is depressing. . .

Then we send a couple of hitters and make him rethink his treachery to the Country.

once the titans re-sign conklin, the free agent OT market will be effectively non-existent. . .

I want the Guard from New England and an OT in the draft.

But as long as we have Bolles on the team, with no apparent notion of moving him to guard, drafting a LT is a waste of a pick for a team that needs immediate contributions from early picks.

Bolles should have absolutely zero effect on draft plans.

Let’s be real, that’s like saying they shouldn’t draft an ILB as long as Todd Davis is on the team, both are marginal and going into the last year of their contract.

Edit, btw, most of these T’s can play RT, or even RG, until Bolles is holding for some other team.

You know that's not true. I get that he sucks, bottom ___-tile, but you know that's not true what you say.

That’s like saying they can’t draft an ILB that can finally cover a TE as long as Todd Davis in on their roster ... both are marginal and going into the last year of their contract.

Mayock/Gruden want to replace Derek Carr, you telling me Garett Freaking Bolles is untouchable?

Nope!

And the Obligatory PFF argument in ... 5 ... 4 ... 3 ... 2 ...
