You mean they're like Steelers fans?

Makes you wonder, drafting that high in the first round for a RT that can only play in a power scheme.

It's going to be pretty bad for Conklin, the team has a serviceable RT in Kelly. If Conklin is as bad as last year, him and his agent should agree to a tryout at guard if it's offered. It will all play out, he could return to year 1 form.

Starting lineup could be Lewan, Saffold, drafted center, Jones, Conklin/Kelly

A rookie contract center could be ok, by the time the contract is due saffold will be off the books. This year decides the RT position. Jones could play guard for one year. Still a lot of draft capital tied up in the o-line .

yup screwed that one up, 3 years apart, JD is done his 5 year rookie deal, JC has some time left, hope he returns to top form. We have a very talented backup tackle in Dennis Kelly.

Crazy idea that would never happen, but it is the off season. Trade Conklin for JD Clowney. Both have a history of leg injuries both are from the same draft class (I thnk) Make Kelly your starting RT. Helps our front 7, fills a hole while not taking away too much from the O-line. never happen, but I think it makes both teams better.

The days of Marcus not having to look over his shoulder are over. Tannehill can win a few games if Marcus gets hurt, often these guys play better when they don't have to start all season.

We were always going to draft an interior O-lineman. So now we HAVE to draft a STARTING RG. Or a starting center and slide Jones to RG. The guy has to be an improvement over Kline. I don't think this is too big of a task, I've been thinking we need to draft an interior O-lineman, an edge rusher and a D-lineman who can get pressure up the middle in the early rounds. Not a bad number of holes considering. Houston still needs two starting tackles from the draft unless they are planning on keeping one of their back up caliber tackles starting. Also, their secondary was a problem last year and it got worse.

2 years in a row. WTF was not paying Duane Brown, your starting left tackle.Love it! Their secondary was a problem area and it has gotten worse in FA.

It has been fun and it's only 40 minutes old, lol!

I think he has done a hell of a job remaking their offensive line from Luck being a tackling dummy to keeping him clean. I'm not infatuated with him, I think he and JRob are 1 and 2 in the division, time will tell who wins out, he does have Luck for a QB, big advantage.

We could have had Ballard if not for shoving Mularkey down his throat. That makes him even a smarter man, IMO.

FA furvor over the Browns and the Jets. Would not surprise me if one or both did not meet expectations as many teams in the past who "won" FA.

Makes me wonder why Pittsburgh would not sign him to a similar deal last off season.
