Apparently, he is aware of it. Send in a resume, see if you can get an interview.

Everyone has an opinion. Mine is that the article speaks the truth. You can get away with an average offensive tackle, especially with the rest of this line. You may have to scheme differently but the offense should be fine. As to whether we get a tackle or not that remains to be seen. I’m betting we do. Average edge rushers don’t do shit for your defense. You need elite talent there. Ballard swings for the fences there, getting high athletic ability that is raw and unproven. He has not hit on any lineman yet but he believes he will. It is a good philosophy and more importantly it is a philosophy. And he believes in it and follows it. This team is in good hands.

The time for that has passed. That said, I'd really love to get access to the college All 22. That is incredibly difficult to get access to.
