Possibly, but look how fast they jettisoned Prince.He’ll probably have the next 2 seasons to prove he belongs here, as he is on his rookie contract. If he shows improvement he will likely get to play our year 4 of the contract as well, but I don’t think they’re holding a spot for him.
Good point. That surprised me as I thought Prince looked better at tackle than Deiter did at guard. Ultimately nobody is safe if they don’t produce, but unless they feel like they’ve found an upgrade his roster spot isn’t in jeopardy. IMHOPossibly, but look how fast they jettisoned Prince.
Me too, I’m sure we’re going to see a lot more roster churning. Especially for these PS guys playing now, and incoming draft picks this offseason. Competition is good though.Good point.

CFL or Arena Football !

Come on, he's a 3rd round OL draft pick. How many of those do you think become valued starters in their first year on any team? I think he's developing and progressing well enough, all things considered. He may end up being depth only, but I think they are a long way from being sure he's reached his ceiling.
Lol so true,off lineman are so hard to findIt’s an annual tradition to whiff on any OL we take after Day 1 of the draft. Doesn’t matter who’s in the front office. Grier couldn’t find a mid round OL worth a damn if he had 15 Day 2 picks.
I will be delighted if you are right dude but street FAs and UDFAs are performing better than him right now. He's got to do better and soon if he wants to have a prolonged career here, because 3rd round pick or not we've got the capital and cap to replace him moving forward.
You are correct about any LG struggling with garbage on either side. Dieter was in a rough situation but he's getting better imo.I think he is relegated to back up duty, we know he can fit that role but he will be replaced at LG by a FA (Thuney) or a draft pick. But good to know you aren't 1 deep on the line depth is key with the attrition of a NFL season. Having guys like Deiter and Boehm as depth guys who can come in and play is a good thing to have. And while Boehm is my 1A to replace someone in a pinch Deiter like some have said will be better when the unit as a whole is better.
Steve Hutchinson would struggle at LG with a turnstile at LT and a mediocre C.
So, you would just cut bait with him right now, thus ensuring we wasted a 3rd round pick on a guy who's not much less than marginal in his rookie year? When you make comments like "CFL or Arena league", is that hyperbole? Just asking . . .
