The Final Proof Of Oline Value
-
I'd pull the trigger on Kalil if he's there at 4. Bookend Tackles to seal the edge for McCoy to make plays(to give him a change to make plays) would do wonders for the kid. Even top QB's like Brady and Brees can get happy feet when the Oline crumbles in the face of a heavy rush. QB's make untimely decisions and force balls into coverages when they don't have enough time to go through their reads and progressions.
...put it this way, if you know that you have a juggernaut of a DE and a Linebacker coming from the right and you need 2 seconds for your WR to beat his man but you know that you're only afforded 1.5 seconds before you're sacked or maimed and your WR has questionable hands and your star RB is nursing a bottle of milk on the sidelines... OH! I know the answer put fresh meat in at QB and lets see what happens!!!
I think that is the definition of insanity right there, sooner or later even the blind man has to "see" that we need a FRANCHISE RT... don't hate the player, hate the game...
You don't draft a RT with the 4th pick. Kalil isn't looking to play RT, or get a RT's contract.
I agree we need a RT, but Andrew Datko in the second is more than suitable, and we don't "waste" the #4 pick.

Okay, okay... I get it, I'd HATE to HAVE to pick a LT to go to RT with the number 4 overall pick of the draft. It's just, if the guy is another Joe Thomas we're gonna need that talent when Eric retires... I'd hate to be left with just Joe Thomas and Alex Mack because then I feel like we're "wasting" Joe Thomas AND that pick we used on him. JT and Mack does not a line make. I know what your saying though I just cannot bear the thought of another season watching the Rightside get slaughtered game after game.
Here's an idea!!! Let's get a Lefthanded QB so we can move Joe Thomas to the Rightside and then we could at least complain about the horrid leftside for awhile, that would be refreshing!
Seriously though, if you think Donnie Darko can hold out on the Right side and be a stable stud for our Oline for the next 7 years I'm all for getting him and using that #4 pick on a playmaker, for sure!

Lookie here, we agree on something.

Actually the play calling by the Steelers DC was pathetic. Also, if BR was not injured they would have probably won the game. If Kyle Orton had played that game instead of TT the same O Line would not have guaranteed the Broncos a victory.

eh, forget the Oline... just get Trent Richardson and you could put "crash test dummies" on the right side and he'd still run wild!

Did you watch the national championship game? Dude can't run worth a crap unless he has a hole the size of Ohio to run through.

Keep telling yourself that.

The Steelers O line played just as good and produced just as many points in a regulation football game as did the Bronco's line.
The difference in ALL championship games as it was in this one.............. IS THE QUARTERBACK.
The oline had absolutely nothing to do with the winning play, AND most of TEBOW's BIG plays had nothing to do with the OL. He made most of his plays while being forced out of the pocket.
The final play he released the ball in less than 2.5 seconds. Even your homo ass could give him that much time.
QUICK RELEASE and ACCURATE PASSING COMBINED WITH WR SPEED. OL HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.
Skilled players won. End of discussion.
Would you honestly trade, even up, the Steelers "skill players" for those of the Broncos?

The Stoolers had help. The lateral that was ruled an incomplete pass could have been a 14 point swing in the other direction.

Big Ben for Tebow? Or you mean the WR of the Steelers for those of the Broncos
The whole package. Tebow/McGahee/Thomas etc. for BR/Mendenhall/Wallace/Brown etc.
Then you would see who had the better team. It would boil down to defense and OL.
