Are they playing up to the level of their contracts? Hell no.

So why keep them?

Either draft someone or sign someone. They’re paying premium prices for dogshit production.

If nothing else, it sends a message. These guys are either severely overpaid for how good they are or they started coasting once they got paid.

Either way, they need to go.

If something needs changing now would be the line coach. Change the messenger, see if they can find away to put the unit back together. They know how to play, getting them on the same page is still possible.

I’m no expert on the cap, but they cant just cut them without cap hits.

smith is young and has played well. i don't see any reason he can't figure it out and play at a high level.

ryan kelly is fine to ditch if we have a decent replacement. i don't know if pinter is that

Braden Smith is the 4th highest paid right tackle in the NFL.

I don’t care how young he is, you don’t pay a guy that much to watch him play like dog shit and say “well, maybe he’ll come around”.

It’s absurd. Absolute horseshit.
