It's All About the O-Line

If it seems that I am obsessive in my consideration of the offensive line it is only because the offensive line is the most important, single unit on a football team. Have quality players along the line then the offense is going to click. Don't have quality people along the line then the offense is going to stink.

With that perspective in mind, I read a very good online posting at DraftHistory.com that -- using a very straightforward methodology -- examines the need for help along the offensive line of each of the NFL teams (it also includes a very colorful chart!).

The fact that DraftHistory.com is the same site that rates the Steelers' 1974 draft as the best in NFL history doesn't hurt their credibility one bit.
