Line play has degraded since Manning’s time. A lot of articles have been written about it. Bc of the players agreement practice time is a lot shorter, consequently it also means player development is not as good now. Why I think you see more of a premium on oline players in the draft.

Years before teams would take guards and centers lower and then develop them as years went by. That’s not happening as much now. Partially why Grigson’s dated philosophy on building oline didn’t and doesn’t work now.
