This is 100% what I think. It takes 3 years to groom a lineman. You don't go into the draft with 0 tackles and hope to fix it. You sign a couple of guys to act as your talent floor and hope your draft pick can catch on offering an upgrade.

We did nothing at TE, WR or RB either.

Our offense is underwhelming and about 1 injury away from a Trainwreck. Olave, AK, Carr, Hill or any of the OL get injured, then 5 wins may be difficult.

This is the second time in three years that they are trying to go into the season with a rookie LT. They drafted Penning and hoped for the best in '22. Injured and didn't look great. They tried Penning again last year. Disaster. He was such a liability that he went from starting to 3rd on the depth chart. Total liability when on the field. So naturally they decide he's the answer at RT and draft another rookie to start at LT. They are willingly heading into seasons without proven starters at LT and now RT. That's amazing to me.

And I hear you at TE. We've seen the Saints pass on so many quality TE prospects over the past few years. They are operating like we have no issue at TE. You'd think we had Travis Kelce or something. We don't.
