Re: OL is no longer priority #1
I disagree too. We need to draft for competition to keep this unit as strong as possible - though when draft day comes, I think I'd probably go after the best DT available in Marv's eyes with pick #1 - hopefully we can trade down from #10 or where ever we draft at (I know we won't be drafting #8 this year) to around #20-25 to pick up that DT stud (or maybe we bring in big name free agent that Marv really likes and still go DT stud in the draft - then OL the rest of the way), and then get that guard help/competition/depth (whatever he turns out to be).
That's what I would do. I don't care how decrepit our skill position players become - Skill position players don't make a difference - the men in the trenches do because they elevate the skill position players' games. And they're a dime a dozen.
