Originally posted by NYniner85:Originally posted by NCommand:LOL. What? What does DL at a dime a dozen have to do with needing IOL who can pass protect? DL are the athletes coming out of college and there's an overabundance of them every year in FA and the draft. Even on our team where there's little difference in production between an UDFA and a top 15 pick. IOL that can run block and pass block can't keep up with these athletes and OL are having conferences to just try and combat the fact there are so many good ones esp. on the edges.
Yes and there isn't an overabundance of IOL to block all these s**tty DTs lol?
Dude YOU literally said DTs are a dime a dozen AND that DTs have ZERO impact on pass rushing....You said all this all why trying to pump up the need for top end IOL pass-protectors to block all of these dime a dozen DTs that apparently have ZERO impact on pass rushing.
How are you not seeing the irony of all of this?
You can't downplay the importance of DTs and pump up the need for IOL WHEN they're the ones blocking the DTs
Again no need to say one is more important than the other BUT if you look at the overall $ invested & high end draft capital spent on both throughout the league DT is favored.
Yes we need to build the IOL...doesn't mean a guard is more important than a DT or you having to find some cherry picked stat to prove why Kin wasn't a good pick, just because you didn't get who you wanted. move on Kin is a Niner and looks to be improving every week.

Saints starting OL :
LT - 3rd round pick
LG - 1st round pick
C - 2nd round pick
RG - 1st round pick
RT - 1st round pick
And their QB still got hurt after all of that was invested to protect the QB.

He needs much much more. This is an extended pre season. Get those snaps up to 80% the rest of the year.
Kris Kocurek disagrees.
Not last year when Buckner had over 800 snaps in a 'down' year. I highly doubt the plan was for their #15 pick to be a 2 of 3 down player. But ya'll can justify anything so...LOL
Buckner wasn't a rookie.

Because your 3T is your primary inside pass rusher in a W9 (in a passing league). Are you cool with Bosa only playing 62%? Hell no!
The lowest Bosa played in any game as a rookie was 73%.
Bosa was super polished, Kinlaw was a lot more raw by comparison.
Quinnen Williams played about 60% (give or take) of his team's defensive snaps weekly last year. And Aaron Donald played 67% of the Rams defensive snaps as a rookie.
Buckner had 1,005 snaps his rookie year.
We have 4 wins. 90% of the roster is on I.R.
So we sit a raw rookie who's playing fine? I'm sure he'll learn a lot more on the bench.
PS: Even the "raw" AA averaged 75% of the snaps in his rookie year.
Dude. Stop making stuff up ! lol AA did not average 75% of snaps his rookie year....not even close. Where are you coming up with this stuff? Are you just making things up? Lol come in NC

LOL. Saying DL are a dime a dozen does not imply they suck as a result of it. In fact, it makes the pool stronger as teams pick the top players and get more of them to rotate making it a stronger unit overall.
How many OL units are better than DL?
I also showed you how UDFA's on this very team are grading out significantly higher than Kinlaw and all are good players and in part of the larger rotation.
The fact that they ARE a dime a dozen only puts spending a top 15 pick on a DL suspect unless he's got an excellent pass rush skill base to work from.

When healthy, isn't our OL similar:

LG - 1st round
C - 2nd round
RG - ?
RT - 1st round

meanwhile currently some of the best IOL are
Wyatt Teller- 5th rd pick
Shaq Mason-4th rd pick
Joe Thuney-3rd rd pick
Michael Onwenu-6th rd pick (playing OT as well)
I got no problem developing and spending some picks on IOL. Saying IOL is more important than DT and saying DT literally has ZERO impact in the pass rush is comical. I mean we're really really trying hard here.

I think most of us had at least 3 of those guys in our mocks too at one point or another. Yes, they can be found later too.
The problem is our FO hasn't drafted any of them no matter the round. LOL
Even their one and only real investment looks like crap right now.
