Where the guards are certainly isn’t up to me, what you see is what I’ve heard in the media since the trade for Jackson; don’t kill the messenger. I agree that one addition doesn’t make the line, but being realistic and based off of the Hawks history they won’t be loading up the line so don’t be surprised if what you see is what you get. They completely botched acquiring Zeitler who would have been much cheaper and less a draft pick so that tells you right there the Jackson move was somewhat desperation IMO; albeit an upgrade regardless. This team puts a competent Oline together about as well as drafting in the first round.......I’m taking it for what it is.

Sorry if you thought I was being short with you because I wasn't. You are also right EVERYONE and their moms are saying Lewis to the left and I don't understand why. Why take a talented RG and slide him over to the left side when you have a vet that plays both Left and right guard and who plays LG better than he does RG? This is what confuses me. Go look at Jacksons blocking grades from left side to right side. He goes from borderline pro bowler on the left to a little above average on the right. We all ready have a above average player on the right with Lewis who should only improve in his second season. Why retard that 2nd year growth by throwing him into a 3rd position (yes 3rd because they have him learning Center also remember?)? This just leaves me scratching my head because it really doesn't make sense to me. Don't you want to put the players in the best position to succeed?

It is only speculation from articles but my guess would be that LG is a slightly more valuable position so some are wanting to see if the high upside youth can fill it. But I completely agree with you that both play well at their current positions so they probably should leave well enough alnoe.
With Pocic back I will assume that he plays C but a 1 year - $3 million deal indicates he may have to compete fir a starting role. Last year the Finney signing was supposed to take over at C but the covid situation led to the team not being able to medically evaluate him beforehand. Big mistake. My point being is that they still might try to find another C.

Sorry to see David Moore go. I liked him but ultimately he is a replaceable player.

Trust me, as great as Pete has been for this franchise he has certainly caused a bald spot to each one of us for the constant head scratching we have to do regarding his line decisions over the years. I feel like we are finally making headway that hes using actual O-lineman to move around in unfamiliar places rather than defensive lineman or basketball players.

I wonder if the Hawks would consider signing Golden Tate after David Moore left via FA... Also, would they entertain Antonio Brown again since he was a good citizen last season with TB?

I've read 2 year deal... Is it 2 or 3?

... just researched... It's a 2 year with a voidable 3rd year option...

I am a little surprised they would give him over 8 mill a year but at least now after wishing him a full 16 game season and being a top back in the NFL it's going to be for us haha. It works that way right?

All Joking aside I figured the Hawks wouldn't pay anything north of 6 mill per for Carson and he seemed a little pissed off.

Same. I wanted us to draft one but let's use that 2nd rounder to keep Russ happy.

If they do not trade their 2nd I think they might go CB, But I almost feel they 100% will trade that pick. I think they will pick up more oline later in FA when teams start cutting guys to make the cap. Heck they might flip it on me and get the CB in that period instead.

So much for that prove it deal for Carson. 7.3mil seems a tad high but hopefully he proves me wrong and can stay healthy.
