@ScottBarrettDFB @Marcus_Mosher @BrettKollmann @AdamHarstad Of course Adam explained it perfectly. That's the factor of age for me, and knowing that development is coming likely means increased upside.

@Marcus_Mosher @BrettKollmann There was somewhere that used to post breakout ages for college guys iirc. It makes sense for a 23 year old to dominate cfb against 19-20 year olds just bc of physical maturity.

@Swosubulldog4 @StevieJPTX Mitchell & DeJean 24 Carter & Smith 23 Davis & Jurgens 22 Smith & Dickerson 21 Thats their last 4 years of 1st and second round picks... All starters, all playing well... plus Milton Williams, and Nakobe Dean in the 3rd. And pre 2021, Hurts/Sweat & Goedert are 2-4s

@Swosubulldog4 @StevieJPTX If you want to have a super deep really good roster, Steve is right, you have to hit and develop several those guys from rounds 3-4 and then get lucky on some 5-7s…

@Cowboyjunkie22 Yes they do. And Dallas does too… they have a 3rd rd Center and UDFAs at RG/RT If you want to be a dominant team on the line of scrimmage you have to invest resources there consistently

@JohnOwning Solly has ties to the DL coach, and Smoot was the “least” of the edge guys so I went with that for the purpose of the exercise. I’m not partial to any of those guys specifically

This is the "fat veterans" side of the fat veterans fast rookies strategy. Combine that with a top 100 like this? And now you're cookin going into 2025.

@Cowboyjunkie22 No. He's been hurt a bunch of late. My plan is to leverage my really good OL coaches as well as the guy across the street from the facility, and you can get good enough LT play from one of Guyton/Lucas/Richard.

@KrunkleKris The Cowboys will have very good coaching on both sides of the line of scrimmage in 2025. The main area where they hired proven coaches was OL and DL.

@StevieJPTX @Johnny_Fontane They have a home grown 1st, 2 home grown 2nds, a 7th and a former 1st rd FA swing on their OL. Let’s not act like they skimped by on those guys. But we’ve done this merry go round before, so you already know this.

@StevieJPTX PHI has spent 13 1st rd picks on offensive and defensive linemen in the last 20 years… that commitment is why they’re so good in the trenches.
