Been saying it, that's how it was most of camp that I saw. Bohanna's going to be pretty good this year.

But don't worry, I think Gallimore will still torment you plenty on passing downs.
Interior pass-rusher is the number one need on defense. I think we'll see Lawrence/Armstrong lined up there plenty in nickel/dime, of the DT's I think Osa is probably the best pass rusher, and then after him it'll be interesting to see who gets more snaps/plays better between Gallimore/Hill.

I'm guessing Gallimore, but it'll be interesting to see if anybody can step up and be a fixture on the interior in nickel/dime.

I do think Gallimore is clearly the next guy up and will probably get plenty of snaps spelling Osa some also.

I'd go something like Lawrence, Osa, Gallimore, Fowler for my best four rushers, plus of course sending Parsons sometimes. Quinn actually has kind of a tough job juggling it all to get everyone the right number of snaps. Good news is the inevitable injury shouldn't kill us.

This is random, but I heard both David Moore and Eatman bring it up and it surprised me so I thought I'd throw it out there...

Both those guys mentioned eventually it was possible that Peters plays LT, Tyler plays LG, and McGovern goes to C. Do you think that's realistic? Did we even see enough of McG at C to see if he'd be better than Biadasz at it?

But if everything worked out, that could be pretty good and might could move people off the ball more than we've seen in several years. Even if you left center alone, think how stout that left side would be.

I think that is the plan if Biadasz is just awful.

McGovern has been horrendous snapping the ball everytime he's been out there so unless that's magically become very consistent there's no way he'll be the center over someone like Farniok.

If anything, I lend more credence to the idea Farniok is going after the Mongo FB role.

Everyone always is looking for ways to replace Biadasz but for the majority of last year he was solid. He had a couple tough games early but settled in. I think the coaches are way more comfortable with him and fans seem to excessively try to replace him. I think we all just got used to elite center play. But unless you're replacing him with someone really good it's probably not a good idea.

I tend to agree, we'll see how he does this year but if he plateaus and doesn't really improve then I'd be more open to starting Farniok and of course looking to replace him next draft potentially.

I mean if you have an option for a great starter I say go for it. But I'm not just shuffling guys in there simply because I want the next Frederick. Now if you can draft the next probowl center in Dallas obviously go for it. The guy is going into his third year though so I expect improvement. Of course I'm not sure our Oline coach is exactly great at that.

I pretty much agree with this. I'm not sure he's that big a problem (especially if he had a stronger guy like Smith next to him), but this wasn't fan wishes, it was from people close to the team. And not sdogo or terrorist-eliminators, but people who actually should know.

The Rams should be at 1 since they are the defending champs until proven otherwise. What a dumb list
It is dumb. Besides the Eagles head scratcher, why is New Orleans so high? Does Prisco know who their QB is? Why is Minny so far above the Cowboys? Matt Ryan is done, also.
