Would it be practical to just (mostly) draft o-line this upcoming year

When we had Williams & Blache we were a top 10 defense but we still couldn't get off the field because the offense couldn't sustain drives. Despite McNabb's mess ups he is moving the ball better than JC did last year. But he also doesn't have the time to make magic happen like he did in Philly. Would it be practical to just (mostly) draft o-line this upcoming draft and fix the trenches before we worry about drafting skill pllayers? Reason being I think it s going take 2-3 years under Allen & Shanny before the Redskins start to turn the ship anyway. So would it be better to replace the LG, C & RG get a solid unit upfront to help McNabb, help the defense stay off the field and rest. What are yall thoughts?

I would sign Logan Mankins, draft a C with the 2nd rounder. Trade the 1st rounder for more picks and get a QB, DE or NT to fill those needs.

Can't just draft on need alone otherwise you end up reaching all over the place. And we have other needs than just OL. Have to fill needs with the draft and with free agency.

There are too many holes. They need to fix the offensive line and get the right personnell for the 3-4. They are either going to have to half ass fill needs on both sides of the ball or neglect one side entirely. I cannot see them neglecting one side entirely so I believe that they will try to put some duct tape on both sides of the ball rather than making either side elite.

Honestly the production from the WR's hasn't been that bad this season. McNabb just doesn't have time to throw.

Personally I believe that they could get away with drafting nothing but offensive lineman next season and waiting another year to fix the defensive front seven as long as the guys that they draft can open holes and pass protect better than what we have now. If the offense could manage 4 touchdowns a game next season then this defense is good enough to hold most victories with the personnel that they have. Sadly, you cannot guarentee that type of production out of a brand new unit.

True I do agree but also think totally ignoring the OL has been the Skins downfall also before Trent the only high draft pick we had at OL was Samuels in 98 or 99.

Both o-line and d-line. Once again our division foes are beating us by dominating up front. We need to feed the front on both sides of the ball.

Hell yea facing Ware, Tuck, Osi, Cole twice a year is killing us. Getting no pressure Eli, Vick & Romo is killing us too fix the trenches.

Agree 100%...both the Oline and DLine should be the focus on the offseason. Add a WR and RB and we're gud...

Shanahan already showed last year he's not going to ignore the OL, so I wouldn't worry too much about that.

You take them when the opportunity presents itself. No reaches, because there's a damn good chance reaching will result in a bust, and another position is also left unimproved along with the O-line. It's just that the past GMs here, for some unfathomable reason, always avoided O-line like they were the plague.
