The OL will struggle early. They will cover some weaknesses with quick plays to throw the defense off guard. Eventually, the OL will hold up enough this season as it plays out. I feel more confident about this than I did the last 3-4 seasons.
My concern is the pass rush this year. Key is gone and hopefully someone like Abdullah could come in and make even half of his effort in his rookie season. And that Allen shows up in contract year. Also, Walker gets a little more disruptive after his rookie season.
Hay Carlyon reporting that Walker Little won impressively today in one on one drills with Travon and Josh Allen
Love it!
Wish I lived in Jax.

I also heard Joe C on 1010 say this as well. He also said Travon beat Little one play.
When Robinson was in at LT they had Little at guard with Harrison at RT.

For a guy that’s probably going to spend the year on the practice squad (Vohasek) this news is very concerning. Fortner has to be better this year physically.
Is there any player who never loses a practice rep? Is this something constant or a one off?

Taking it as a one off for now but Fortner was a guy drafted for his intellect, that needed to be more physical. Has he added enough muscle during the off season??
Harrison looking good paving the way for BIGsby who has wheels.
Outside of Nickel Corner, the O line scares me. Theres certainly the potential to have a solid line this year but... idk it worries me.

One thing I will say is that we have young guys working their way up. From all reports there's a lot of promise in the guys we brought in...it may not bear fruit in this season should any starter fall to injury, but we're a little less shaky than we've been in the past.
You can't bank on staying healthy for the full year, and we've seen versatility among the linemen to be able to fill in where needed, and that's a big plus.
But I get it, I feel that same uneasiness about something going sideways. I'm not used to having nice things.
