Quote:Monroe wasn't even "Monroe level" until his 3rd year, and he had his struggles.  People have short and selective memories when it comes to stuff like this.  This is exactly why I don't see them going crazy on the Oline this offseason.

 

Luke should be able to get into the weight training routine that he should have been in last offseason.  Bortles will finally be able to get the footwork and muscle memory right without having to learn a playbook.  Every piece of our young Oline will have the chance to go through a whole offseason training period with almost everybody free of injuries.  My hope is that this situation breeds much more consistency next year with a higher level of play.  There should be a few guys brought in to compete, but I don't think they'll break the bank on the big guys.  I think the biggest change you'll see is that next year we'll either have Yarno back coaching (hope he gets better) or they'll have brought in a new Oline coach.

 

I think they're more than likely to break the bank for a TE, WR, LB, FS.  

Agreed.  I remember people calling Monroe a bust after his first and second season.  It's pretty rare for a LT to come out of the gate and dominate.  Fisher has struggled.  Greg Robinson has struggled.  Kalil has struggled this year.  Heck even Warmack and Cooper who were supposed to be these dominate guards haven't done well.  It takes time to develop talent.
