Thomas/Jansen have been injured lately but let's give JJ the benefit of the doubt b/c of his 2 fluke injuries.

I think we do need to get younger but at who's expense. I think we can have a top oline as long as everyone is healthy.

The one area of improvement may be Pete Kendall. Some competition at that spot might be a good thing.

Todd Wade/Fabini....let's draft some competition for these guys or hope they don't get in the game

How many "fluke" injuries can you get before we stop calling them "flukes" ??

Well the line did stay uncharacteristically healthy the prior two seasons. In fact, Thomas missed 2 games in that time frame, and Jansen missed one, and that was it.

Thomas' injuries (bicep, mid tibia) wouldn't suggest that he's particularly prone to them, but Jansen's (knee, ankle) would. Looks like we'll have to close our eyes, cross our fingers, and draft depth.
