Austin Howard is a solid RT in the NFL whom has had some pretty good seasons as a full time starter. His past 3 seasons have been solid (not great) but solid.

Adds competition to the RT position. Howard, Haeg, Good and Clark will now duke it out to see who starts and who is worth backing up.

No jobs just handed out; I like that. My ideal of the depth charts:

OT: 'Stanzo, Howard, Haeg, Good, Clark

OG: Nelson, Smith, Mewhort, Slausson, Bond

OC: Kelly, Slausson, Bond (okay, no real competition here but solid depth)

I have a good feeling about the O-Line this season.

Walk Worthy,

Walk Worthy,
I feel good about the line as well...but if we're wrong, this organization is royally fucked given how much they've invested in the line.

After this offseason, they'd better have the OL addressed, preferably for at least the next 2 years.

You overreact a lot. Ravens fans seemed disappointed to lose him, so I doubt he's as terrible as you describe.

Castanzo is getting older, wouldn't mind seeing at least a developmental guy at LT in the 2020 draft. Apart from that though, there should be no need to draft OL before Day 3 before the 2021 draft at the earliest.

Nah, they'll look to upgrade the RT spot still in the draft next year.

I could see us drafting OT in the 1st next year and then move Castonzo to the right after another season. Should be better candidates at OT in next years draft.
