I think we need a tackle more, IMO. I don't believe in Spriggs as a replacement and Bulaga is really injury-prone. But I'm not opposed to some C/G depth.

We have almost zero veteran depth who can come in and maintain the same level of play. With the amount of injuries, these guys are essential to make the Play-offs. Turner can play 4 positions. We do not hve a single decent back up OT w/o Turner.

I’m with Dandrigefav on this one. They may have paid a bit of a steep price for Turner, but he is versatile and seems to still be improving a little. He’s better than any of the backup T options we had last year by a mile and I’m guessing he’ll be starting at RG out of the gates. Jenkins will be battling it out at LG and had a good chance to win the job.

Agree with the two above. I think he is the swing guy and fills in when Bulaga gets hurt.
(I really like the Jenkins pick. They org really seems to be using a similar eval format as PFF. Not for next season to follow their mock only)
