Yes, it would be incredibly brutal... to our salary cap. We already have the most expensive offensive line in the NFL by a mile.

Well right now according to Spotrac our OLine is 25th in cap hit at 26million. Dallas is #1 at 59million. So we have a ways to go to be the most expensive line.

Paying Scherff, TW, Flowers and a starting LT won't be cheap, BUT our DLine right now is super cheap (26th) so if we go higher on OL and have both trenches firmly established, that seems like a good thing.

Hmmm, i stand corrected. Sheehan or Finlay reported that in a podcast a little bit ago. I remember being shocked by it given the fact that our line wasn't that good. Maybe it was assuming if Trent was on the roster and we tagged Scherff?

Well the spotrac number should include TW since he is under contract, but Penn and Scherff probably weren't. Once the line is finalized it may be top 5 or so, but assuming our QB, WR and Dline rookie contracts stay in place we can afford a bit splurge for OL and DBs

You know I don’t think we need to splurge outside of keeping known assets like TW, Schreff and possibly Flowers and/or Roullier.

It will be interesting to see what the new coaching staff thinks about the Oline and how they will fit into scheme especially in the run game. TW is a no brainer of course...top 5 tackle who is an athletic freak fits in every scheme.
