This guy is made for this system.

I hear that, but we can win the SB without Superior QB talent...ergo Theisman, Williams and Rypien. They simply had Superior O-lines.

How many of those linemen were first round picks.

I don't know?
BUT I can tell you regardless of who plays behind this line, we have no chance at success...UNTIL that changes. We do not need to mortgage our future. We need to build the Hogs2 and we will have a running and passing game to contend with.
A QB....ANY qb cannot do that alone

Suddenly we're not one player away but apparently an offensive line away from winning a Super Bowl. The problem with the last regime was total neglect so understandably the fan base wanted the team to start actually trying to acquire talent up front. However the fan base has now gotten to the point where we're overcompensating. So rather then trying to take a balanced approach to building a team suddenly we have to stop everything and build an offensive line with early picks, even if it means passing up a potential franchise QB in the draft or acquiring players to fit a new defensive scheme, because apparently every elite QB in the league has this unbreakable pocket that never puts them under pressure with running lanes you can drive a pickup truck through.

For God sakes 6 new players this off season including freaking bookends. And yet we're still under the impression that the front office is ignoring the offensive lines. Especially since they're considering committing the ultimate sin, drafting a first round QB instead of a Guard.

If you persist, I will be forced to move you to the Drunk thread!
You draw many conclusions. To my knowledge (that means I'm to lazy to re-read my previous posts) I have generally suggested:
1) It is not necessary to mortgage our future on the #1 pick, which would go for several picks this years and next.
2) I have stated that our O-line is...poor and regardless what the plan is "MUST be attended to" in the form of personnel upgrades (first pick, last pick....FA's, just get it going the right way)
3) Behind a good line, an offense can dominate without a Superstar QB. I don't believe it necessary to elaborate further for examples.
4) Do you disagree with that?
