So is every offensive linemen Dave that acquired in the draft actually good?  Or are some of them just bad players, if so, what coaching would make them good?

If it "isn't even true" then by all means tell us which offensive lineman, either drafted or free agent, is playing better now than on arrival.

As far as your second question, it's likely that some of them were just bad players. No GM is perfect. But who can tell? My take here is that Caldwell can't be criticized on his OL picks because they never had a chance. Most of them looked good when they first arrived.

Linders best years of his career came in 16/17, not on arrival. Parnells best year of his career came in 2017, not on arrival.  

Look I've been hyper critical of both the offensive line coaching and the acquisitions but there is no logic in saying the GM is free from critique for his picks when they end up bad. If you want to use that logic all of Gene Smith's picks were good players who the coaching failed.  

The reality is it takes two to tango and both deserve appropriate blame for a consistent problem in Caldwell's tenure. Don't worry there's more than enough blame for the FO and coaching with this mess
