As of now, we only have 2 starter quality O-lineman in our squad. And the way O-linemen have been signed so quickly in FA I am getting worried... Anybody else
concerned?

Starting caiber O-linemen being scooped-up very early in Free Agecy.

Tua time!
short answer...yes...we have tried but been outbid on a few...but yes the oline is a massive hole right now...
I hear you Andy, but good starting caliber O-line players are very few now....Even if is only the 2nd day of FA
I hear ya but then the complaints fly about all our money going into the oline.

I'm telling y'all, find our RT in free agency and draft Zack Martin. Then, we can spend the rest of the draft finding BPA.
Right guard can be a holdover spot for a year. It's the easiest to fill. I wouldn't be mad if Garner manned it for a season. This way, our OL goes from worst in the league to pretty darn good, and everyone clamoring for skill positions or linebackers will be happy too.

I can see that... I'm happy with the way FA has started for us so far...I just wished there would be more action, in our part, in regards to the few good FA olinemen left.
It will sort itself out. I think that two of Miami's starting spots of the three that are currently vacant will be filled by a rookie and someone already on the roster or by two rookies.

Personally, I hope Zack Martin is still available at 19 for us to draft. But, if he is, we need to take him and look for a RT later in the draft. Then play a veteran at RG and line the rookies up at LG and RT.
I would also pick James Hurst as a future LT somewhere in rounds 2-4. Add a RT in that range as well. Then we have Hurst as cover and eventual replacement for Albert. That is the makings of a good OL for the future to provide stability in both the pass and run game. ZBS requires OL chemistry ... we might as well start building that now.

Anthony Collins apparently is signing with Tampa. Strief is getting up there in age. Oher I don't know how much he has left, and Breno also may be scooped up by he Jets. I was hoping to come out of FA with our 2 starting tackles.

I'm also sure that we are going to bring someone in through the draft.

I haven't seen anything confirming Collins to TB. Last I heard, he was going there today, but since then, nothing. If they do sign him though, maybe they release Penn, which I mentioned last night. I would be very happy with Albert and either Collins or Penn as bookends.
