Let's Talk Levi Jones and Offensive Line

[sportscurmudgeon]

Is anyone else beginning to see a reason why Mike Williams was out of the NFL for several years and why none of the other 31 teams spent the summer months beating down Levi Jones' door to come and play for them?


The title of this thread invites discussion of the offensive line and so...


Let me assume for a moment that Chris Samuels actually retires at the end of this year. I don't wish that on him, but assume that for the moment.


Look at the other offensive linemen on this roster. Which of them would qualify under the following heading :

"Starter For More Than Half The Teams In The NFL"

Maybe Dockery. Maybe not...

Maybe Thomas if he recovers fully. Maybe not...


I think that's the list. Even in an uncapped year, the rejuvenation of the OL will be a most difficult task.
