Just thought of something, if Erving starts at RG, then that will make the O line the only group of starters where we've actually drafted (and retained) all the players. Well, until Mack walks next year. Actually, maybe he doesn't opt out because maybe he'd make more money staying, or maybe we turn out to be not terrible next year and he wants to stay.
I was a bit surprised at an O lineman when we had so many other what seemed like more pressing needs, but lets face it, I'm ecstatic if we get 2 starters out of 2 first round draft picks. We seem to wiff on so many skill guys in the first round that just usable players would be a big step up. Everything about this guy seems good, just the fact that he can play 5 spots is huge.
How different would last year have been if we had Danny Shelton and Erving instead of Johnny and Gilbert?
