woolfolksunclesuncle Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 DAMN! JRob's a fucking boss. Besides Kline's obviously shitty play, his revamp of the offensive line is another move in Mariota having no excuses this season. He'll sink or swim with solid players around him. titanskick8851, Thrill, bosss50, and 1 other 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justafan Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 How hard am I gonna laugh if they bring Spain back on the cheap?! They're gonna target someone in the draft. Gotta be. They aren't going to hand out another big contract on that line. That's crazy. Either that or get a placeholder vet on the cheap but might as well roll with Pamphile if you're going to do that. This is a bold move. Really happy to see Robinson admit mistakes and move on early. Jonboy, titanskick8851, bosss50, and 1 other 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgo Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 Another random thought: Corey Levin played very well at center. Jones could be moved to guard, with Levin starting at center. Jones is still not ideal at RG but would be stouter than Kline. This provides maximum flexibility in the draft if nothing is done via FA. I'll be happy to eat crow if we draft an iOL early. They now could go iOL/DL/OLB/TE. Supdawg, titanskick8851, and cenj 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctm Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 IOL is the off season priority.....been saying it for a while now. titanskick8851, and titanruss 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha I guess that's possible! Re: Spain. I think it would be great to address OL in draft (if they sign Suh or Jernigan esp!). Justafan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be happy to eat crow if we draft an iOL early. They now could go iOL/DL/OLB/TE. This was my thought. Corey Levin played well enough to make Jones/Kline expendable. I would bet they make the same offer to Jones (take a paycut and a reduced role or you're gone). We were always going to get IOL at some point in the draft, no difference here. Just less bodies to crowd the room. I don't think this changes our approach to the season specifically because we have Levin and retained Pamphile.

Jones contract is such that he can be released later though. Although that would be kind of shitty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But looking at the line overall, we need some rookie contracts to diversify the pay structure. Tyler Rose Fan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post tgo Posted March 15, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) Also, don't forget about Mariota's college center Grasu who he's been working out with all offseason. If they're going to release Kline, Jones should be looking over his shoulder too I think.

Downtown Posted March 15, 2019 Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 2019 draft priority is coming into focus and remains the same. Looking like Pass Rush, IOL, WR, and maybe a development QB in that order is in store. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonboy Posted March 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 Could Spain or Saffold play RG, @TeamRamrod27? Believe both have primarily been LGs for their career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post nine Posted March 15, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 15, 2019 Kinda surprising that Kline refused a pay cut. Based on his performance last year, he should have volunteered to pay back most of his salary.
