Thanks Oline. So in short we could be seeing big changes. 

Do you think if we lost all 5, we can replace them with better in one off-season. Maybe a reshuffle with some additions…

(LT) ????? - ????? - Linder - Taylor - Little (RT)

It's hard to tell. I'd really like to extend Linder and find a LT via free agency or a trade. This 2022 OT draft class is really, really bad. I'd also try and add a decent OG via free agency and then add another OG via the draft (I have yet to examine the OG class.) Personally, I would try and cut bait with Taylor. He's terrible. Trade him for whatever we can get. I would then bring in as many low round and UDFA OT's as we can handle and hopefully, we could find a decent swing tackle. If we added a really good LT and a decent LG via free agency/trade, extended Linder at Center and had a new OG via the draft or perhaps playing Bartch there with Little at RT, I could see some improvement. It would take time for a new O-Line to gel together, but Kansas City totally re-vamped their O-Line and they looked pretty good in their first game.
