We gonna need at least 3 new Oline men starting next year. Mixture of FA and draft picks. I would like to see only Tomlinson and AvT starting possibly, I hope Laken can start to play like prior years.
ALL of this, despite so many past draft picks and moves, is really needed. I don't see how fans are choosing not to acknowledge how serious an issue this is for the Jets.
On the bright side we did make a big free agent signing at left tackle. Injury report says we get him back in week five. As bad as Tomlinson is better play outside would limit the ground he would have to cover inside.
We are down our starting LT (Fant), our starting RT (Becton), and our backup LT (Brown). We have reinforcements starting soon but they haven't been ready yet in Remmers and Ogbueje, but in the interim, anyone who expects our line to be good when we're down to our third-string left tackle has unrealistic expectations. With this level of injury, of course our OL is not good. WRT Becton, you can certainly argue that this is self-inflicted because Becton has struggled to stay healthy. Beyond that, we've been snakebitten this year (again). It's crazy that we have been that unlucky two years in a row. Time to use some serious draft capital or cap space on the OL for next year.
