The two Alabama mauling OLinemen Warmack and Fluker may not be ideal fits in this new offense. Maybe a Barrett Jones is a better fit. Howard played in his system in Philly but was let go - was it a numbers game or will familiarity keep him here? He did have a non-Hunter year at RT and is young and cheap and knows the scheme.
Even with predictable, straight-ahead formations, the OLine did okay. With this scheme, it may do better. Maybe the OLine doesn't get addressed early or often in the draft. A lot of ways this can go.
