How's that working out with Traore? Like I said, hit or miss, and that spot is wasted.

I don't think it's wasted. I think he needed some time to develop some. If he can provide a starters spot or provide depth next year then he was valuable IMO.

Of course you want to get the best players from HS first but if you can't then adding 2 or 3 players until you have the attention of the top HS recruits isn't a bad thing. It is a bandaid but a needed one at this point in Os program.

They also need to get out there in the country and evaluate better DLman and rush OLBs. IMO the rest of our roster has been fixed for the future. We have great LBs (except for a rusher) we have real quality WRs, quality QBs, quality RBs, quality DBs, and great OLman including future OTs with Rosenthal Wire, Traore, Deculus, Charles and Parker. The only true LTs are Wire, Rosenthal and Parker the rest are RTs and all need to develop BUT we do have better talent at the tackle position overall then we did even last year and for sure the year before.

I think we'll be fine at OG and OC but this line needed some rebuilding in a major way. Now that we have them all here they can start to build a two deep while all working together to build some real chemistry. I think our OL is in better shape then people realize. It's just going to be how these kids develop now.

The DL is a much different story and it needs to be addressed in this class, then we can add some real depth in 2020 and hopefully 21. I was hoping that we could add some big strong DLman in 2019.
