The Offensive Line

Martin Eden said:
We can't even get the snap count right, much less develop some kind of blocking scheme. In my opinion, the offensive line is not better than last year, so far.

go back & rewatch.It got worse as the '25 season progressed
this year we are ascending not descending with young talent
rookies playing out of position shouldn't be this good 2 games in
just like the rest of the OFF the line is a "work in progress"
by mid-season a top NFL OFF line

We were indeed horrible on the Oline last season, and we do have some young talent, and we should get better as the season goes on and not worse. But. . . we are not moving anyone. We will see how the pass blocking goes. We have a very long road to get down before we have a decent offensive line.

Another off season and a draft... This line will get there...
 
Random thoughts ...

Tytus Howard is on the injury report with a knee.
Tevin Jenkins, once healthy, is probably our best swing O-lineman.
If Howard goes down, would we bump Barber to RT, and insert Jenkins at RG?
And, if that's the case, are we really going to start Fano at LT when he played RT in college, and Barber at RT when he played LT in college?

Could get messy.
For now, just carry on as-is of course.
 
I'd actually like to see

LT Fano
LG Zinter
C E.Jenkins
RG Barber
RT Jones

I just don't have much of a connection with the others, yet.
Agree, if Tytus goes down (and he was back to full practice today, so all good), put Dawand in at RT.
Of our 3 young OT's, it seems Barber and Fano are the most flexible.
Dawand ought to be pigeonholed to his natural position.
With Jenkins playing better than any other C in the NFL, and Fano coming along quickly, Zinter might thrive at LG.

He did improve under Warhop in camp. That would be just incredibly good luck if Zinter could push at LG. It makes the FA's we just paid expendable, depending on contracts.

Or quality depth.

Good Problems!
