Re: Brian Robinson

If we learned anything from the Eagles this year it’s that line play on both sides of the ball can set you up to dominate.

Sure Barkley is a great back but a lot of guys would have monster seasons running behind that line.

I’d like to upgrade from Robinson but priority number one should be building up the OL.

This.

I felt like we saw what Robinson should look like when Ekeler is on the field, but Ekeler is not a bell-cow running back anymore. I love Ekeler and I want to keep him but I like him as a change-of-pace back.

But yes building the lines should be priority.

Re: Brian Robinson

Wouldn't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Still on the rookie contract, he can be depth if we manage to upgrade the position.

Either way though the primary issue was the offensive line getting inadequate push down the stretch. I'd spend my resources in the trenches. We should be pursuing more size.

I'll add to this by saying i think JD made the line look a lot better. They werent terrible, but like you said...down the stretch the run game took a really big hit. An upgrade is def needed on that unit to bring the run game back.

Yep. Biadasz and Cosmi are the mainstays but I'd be looking at every other spot. Even Cosmi needs a strong depth solution because that was a late-season ACL. He might not be himself until 2026.

If we have a chance to get a LT, do it and kick Coleman to RT or inside to LG. He's got a nice athletic profile but we should use it at another spot.

Solid plan......Andrew Wylie is as good as gone......

I'd look for the younger version of Ekeler and move on if possible. He was great this year but the concussions are a concern, I'd at least keep him off kick returns to help save him from some big hits.

Agreed, if I remember right he had 3 concussions last season. It's not a good sign.
