Trent Williams holding out for new deal

There have to be guys that are going to be released that are better than Christain, and maybe even Penn. I can't get over how weak Christian is. Has the guy ever been in the weight room?

I remember when the 49ers won 10 or more games for 16 straight seasons from 1983-1998. They constantly had good offensive line play despite rarely drafting players with high picks. 2 time pro bowler, Jesse Sapolu who played both guard and center for 15 years was drafted in the 11th round. They got lineman off the waiver wire, plugged them in and they played well. I thought Callahan was supposed to be a top notch O-line coach, what is the Redskin's problem?

This is the year for Callahan to earn his money. I will say again that I think Flowers has improved at the OG slot, particularly for run blocking. The question will be if Penn, Christian or waiver pickup OT is going to be decent enough.

The other side of the coin is that the Vikings didn't have a stellar line, and I don't think Denver did either, but I don't know that for sure. This will probably be the best line Keenum has been behind even without Trent. Haskins has shown he needs to be protected, but Keenum made his living in Minnesota after the pocket broke down. Of course the NFC East has some of the best defensive lines too
