I would consider drafting a LT in the first couple of rounds and moving Trent to the right side next year where he's more comfortable.
Yeah, LT - 1st Round, QB - 2nd Round.

Re: Trent Williams Injury Update

Listening to Shanny's presser right now- Trent's MRI came back as just a grade 1 MCL sprain- not nearly as bad as a grade 3. That's a positive for sure. Maybe he misses a week, but certainly not a long term thing.

Hell no. QB 1st round (preferably RGIII) and then OL in the 3rd. I still think WR is a bigger priority than OL but I know I'm in the minority on that one.

That you are...over the past two week's we've seen the passing game improved when Rex had time and there was some accuracy. While I wouldn't mind picking up a good WR in free agency, i feel that if you fix the QB position and add depth to the o-line, our WR issues will be significantly less.

I just see the WR in our division alone, Nicks, Bryant, Austin, Jackson, Maclin and even with 5 Pro Bowlers on the OL, our WR don't have the same level of talent, explosiveness and playmaking ability as any of them and that's just a 3 team comparison. If I expanded it across the NFL, I don't think that on ability alone, any of our WR would be in the top 50 at that position.

WRs are only as good as the QB throwing them the ball. Are any of the Colts Wrs doing anything this year? Didn't think so.

Good point but again the talent and ability need to be there as well. I don't think we're scaring anyone with Stallworth, Anderson, Armstrong and Gaffney.

I think our QB play and running game isn't scaring anyone. If we had a QB that had better accuracy with the deep passes and in the red zone, our WRs/TEs would be having great years and we'd have a much better record.

Right now we have no running game and a mediocre QB behind center. No WR is going to be successful under those circumstances.

It's an average WR corp other factors being equal, but paired w/ the worst offensive coaches this year makes it a sh!tshow.
