I think the FO needs to bite the bullet and pay a guy like Levi Jones (likely to be cut after the draft) enough money to sign w/ us...let Jansen, Heyer, new guy compete for the starting job and keep the other two as backups knowing damn well there will be injuries regardless of the who the starter is. This is common sense IMHO...so I doubt it goes down this way.

To me the thing about tackle is this:
1) We really need an LDE upgrade but we can stick Daniels/Wynn in there if we have to
2) We need a SLB upgrade because MW has lost a step (sorry 53Fan!), but I think it will work out so that we can bring MW back, as he is not a FA hot commodity
3) but at tackle we have no such fall-backs. We have what we had last year and that was demonstrably unsatisfactory. So to me, tackle is the biggest need.
I wonder how healthy Levi Jones is?
