Quote:I don't know if that analysis makes him an idiot. It's not as if protecting Bortles isn't a concern. The fact is, 106 sacks in two seasons is way too many times for Bortles to be hit. In the "Indy is instructive" thread of last week, a sizeable portion of the posters agreed it was a concern. Heck, he's taken more sacks in his first two seasons than the David Carr who sat right next to Dukes as he made his arguments.


Keep in mind, Dukes was a former OL. Of course he's going to push for OL.


Even Dukes acknowledges the Ramsey and Jack picks were good picks. But he also rightfully acknowledges that OL remains a lingering concern.

I didn't call him an idiot. I called him a braying donkey, and I don't agree with his analysis of LT being THE problem with Blakes sack numbers.

It was the problem in two games truth be told.

Lots of sacks came from Blake himself, Wiz or Beadles. The o line is already better on paper with Linder returning and LT was only a small piece of the problem.


With the Beachum addition - I see the need at LT as less than the defensive positions addressed.

The garbage time comment does make him a bit of an idiot BTW.
