    I think this is pretty spot on outside of hopefully cutting Bohannon for another OL/DL. Why we keep a shitty fullback who contributes nothing but missed tackles on special teams, shitty blocking and 7 - 4 yard gains a year on offense blows my mind.

    The thought of four quarterbacks makes me cringe, but with two developmental prospects and a dying need for a franchise quarterback it makes sense.

    We're fucked if an offensive lineman goes down for any extended period of time. I'm glad we're continue to draft them in the mid rounds though, praying one can turn into at the very least a swing tackle before we likely spend a high pick on one next year. I imagine Breno is the cut that makes Fitzpatrick's contract work with the cap. I'd feel a lot better if we made a deal for Ronald Leary from the Cowboys or grab a cap casualty RG/RT in free agency than that starting right side, but thankfully our offense is a quick hitting passing attack. That would be a disaster of a line for a play action passing offense like Baltimore plays with Flacco.

    I'd say a dark horse to make the roster might be Taiwan Jones if he's still around. Could be looked at as our future David Harris. Slow and lumbering but came out of college as a guy that can blow up run blockers and tackles well.
