Luvao is better than having the Roullier/Bergstrom setup right now. The only issue with Luvao is his health, but that can happen with anyone (see TW and Schreff are banged up).

I'm pretty sure once Luvao is healthy, he'll be back in the lineup, which is good. As long as Luvao is healthy, we should be okay. The long term answer for LG is on IR right now, so I don't see the team making a huge investment, unless the are a ton of injuries.

I'd say his level of play is an issue too... He was clearly the weak link of this OL at the beginning of the season.
We still need him back though.

I agree, we do need him right now.

What we really need to do is draft or sign a permanent beast at LG.

You don’t see the team making an investment unless there are a ton of injuries?

Like now? Or last year?

LG should be a priority...you want Alex Smith to step up his game? You need a better running game and obviously better protection. I’d bring in swing interior Oline vet for cheap who could push Center and LG, these are not expensive and I would make invest one of our top 3 draft picks at the guard position. I’d go ahead and get that schreff extension done as well.
