We aren't keeping 11 or even 9 OL...so it should be an interesting competition.

I do, too. Fries is low man on the line, but I think some people underestimate him. That said, Goncalves is huge, fiery dude. At the very least, he should be good depth for his first couple years while forcing Fries to work his ass off that much more to keep his job. If he outright wins it sooner that, great.
I'm looking forward to Bortolini as well... I'm just not in as big a hurry to move on from Kelly as some are. But he's that freak athlete mold like Raimann, Freeland, and Witt only less raw. I think we're in good shape.
