Quote:I know Beachum isn't ideal, but he was a huge upgrade from Joeckel, who was a human turnstile. Would I like to have a young star at LT, yes, but you can't have a star at every position. Sometimes you gotta take a player that stabilizes a position and move on. Beachum made the LT spot solid enough that is isn't a huge need. Obviously, Linder is our best O-Lineman and we are good enough with Beachum at LT and Cann at OG. We have much bigger needs at the other OG position and RT. Those two spots should be addressed immediately. 

I don't necessarily agree. Joeckel gets beat up around here because of his draft position, but statistically he and Beachum are nearly identical. I'm not saying Joeckel should move back to LT, but there needs to be improvement and it isn't on the roster. In my opinion, the only lineman not expendable is Linder. If you pay attention to Cann he has not played well. You can even see where it has made the right side and Parnell's play drop way off. I may be a minority here, but Joeckel was a strength at LG until his injury. Bring him back for the G position on the cheap. Either way, It is going to take a magic trick to get this line beyond mediocre.
