Do you believe ShanaLynch will actually use the high capitol on T?
If the right player is available they can. Remember that did draft McGlinchey with a top 10 pick.
I ask because they only did that because they had a trade in place for Brown if MM was there. Meaning, they only did that because there would be a clear hole. This regime hasn't exactly been big on stacking talent but more about drafting players specifically when a hole opens up....Banks for Tomlinson. McGlinchey for Brown. Burford for Brunskill. They punted on Richburg/Mack in the draft.
They bring in a bunch of JAG's because they know they won't threaten starters.
My point is, will they really draft a T to be proactive or wait until Trent Williams (like Staley) tells them he's hanging it up?
History tells me they won't cross that bridge until it actually happens.
"So we're in this situation, we knew (Alex) Mack had a chance to leave, but you don't want to take that risk. Just stockpiling other players when you can do that at other positions." ~ Kyle Shanahan
I mean that's what most teams do
After they got Williams/McG u expected them to spent another 1st round pick on a tackle lol?
I'm sure OL now, especially PP will be a big emphasis in the offseason. We have a very good QB now so gotta protect him.
And before there was little need for elite PP guys since we basically ran a one read passing offense.
