Time to Build an Offensive Line

Maybe the money wasn't right? Maybe we're waiting to see what happens in the draft before deciding who we might want to start? What if Pashos says, "I like the offer, but I want to start" or something? Not fair to guarantee that.

Maybe we go in and get an Okung or Campbell and there we have our answer, then we can sign someone for depth or be happy with what we have at tackle at the moment. Maybe we don't go T 1st round and do it 2nd round with a guy we think can start. Maybe someone else goes T and ends up cutting a decent guy that might start otherwise allowing us to pick him up?

I'm not going to get too upset about us passing over 2 or 3 30-some year old tackles when more will enter the picture in the coming months.
