A.  We don't know how Pederson feels about this line.  Little was ok but no world beater, Cam is serviceable, Norwell is alright, Schreff has injury history, etc.  It isn't like this is a world class offensive line and is "built."

B.  $16 million a year is on the low end for a starting LT.  I don't think Cam's sighing has a direct effect on the draft either way.
