Meh. That's one of our main issues now isn't it? Injuries and continuity. Would rather just get a LT in the draft early, keep Harrison at RT going into year three, and find Morse's successor for 2026 and Scherff's replacements before RD5. 

I think it's doable. Ratledge is solid. Wouldn't mind the pick.

If injuries is you main concern you might want to get rid of Harrison as well.  Like I said, before I sign him he would have to check out 100% healthy.  

Wills might return this week and be good to go the rest of the season.  Wills is a good tackle and i think he would be even better at RT like he played in college, id have no problem putting Harrison at LT like he played in college and was very good.  I'd still bring in a tackle in FA so we aren't strapped come draft time and forced to take one if the value isnt there.  A long way till the draft but if Johnson or Hunter is the clear number 1 on my board and say I have Campbell as the 7th or 8th best play, I'm taking Hunter or Johnson. 

 I do really like Campbell and I want to see if Banks can help lead his team to a championship and dominate as well.  I think Hunter and Johnson are just as good or better than Stingley and Gardner as prospect though and will be All Pro corners and that is a massive need as well even though Brown has looked pretty good as of late.  Getting a All Pro corner like Hunter or Johnson will be very hard to pass up for me so hopefully we can address the oline in FA.
