According to the PG, this is the lineup from left to right:  Gilbert, Beachum, Pouncey, DeCastro and Adams.  If they can stay healthy, that should be a nice, young line with room to grow.

Gilbert is a POS, no strength.  Should re-sign Max, but won't, and won't draft sufficient OT depth.  Ben will be dead within 4 weeks of the start to the season with Gilly protecting blindside.

That's disheartening.  Maybe they can beef Gilbert up to the task.  And yr 2 of Haley's offense should be better, Ben took fewer sacks last season and the run game was coming around before everything went to shit.

Well, not just weak, but also slow.  The second slowest OT at Indy, IIRC.

Perfect combo for your LT, slow and weak.  Brilliant.

I thought Adams was the LT of the future?

Agree, they should re-sign Starks.  No way Gilbert and Adams stay healthy.  I wasn't particularly impressed with Beachum.  Run game went down YPC after Adams was out.
