Per ProFootballReference | Miami Dolphins at New Orleans Saints - December 27th, 2021, our starting offensive line was:

T Caleb Benenoch
T James Hurst
G Calvin Throckmorton
G Cesar Ruiz
C Erik McCoy

T Kyle Murphy and G Will Clapp had to come into the game and see some snaps as well...

For the record, not an Ian Book fan, it was his ND vs Bama tape that convinced me of his ceiling...

We're stuck with Ruiz through his rookie contract; if Armstead is truly gone, Marrone would be Asst Coach of the year if he could salvage Peat as an OT...

Pretty telling we are having repeat discussions on the same 2 guys on the O-line, year after year.

Both are former 1st rounders I might add.

SaintFan ...

TE (3) 82 - Adam Trautman, 81 - Nick Vannett, 89 - Dylan Soehner, 83 - Juwan Johnson (ERFA 2021), 86 - Ethan Wolf (RFC 2022)

Looked over the stats (collectively) last night after your post. Oh boy, you're right ... upgrades are needed and necessary.

Nick Vannett was a big-time disappointment for me ... for starters, he was injured half of the season

.

Outside of AK/Hill, not a lot of "firepower" offensively.

Trautman really started showing promise in week 7 last year with 26 targets over the four game stretch. Then he went down with the injury.

Hush little man - can you not read? Saintfan?

Shoo fly little racist, and take fishboy with you. You bother me...

All teams have injuries AG & Trautman wasn't setting the world on fire at TE when he was healthy.

A decent player but he needs to sit and learn. Last year he was way over his head. Too much "thinking" out there. Small school project & the game hasn't slowed down for him just yet.

Saints need to add another TE to the mix in 2022.

I noticed something about him. He falls all wrong. Big guys at that position have to know how to fall. Just like riding a bike or a motorcycle you better learn how to wipe out properly or you're going to get hurt when you might otherwise be able to survive the wreck.

Fishboy has no grace about him. All the talent in the word but I swear he's going to be one of those dudes who's always in the tent. He will tease and fool the fanboys, but that's all he'll ever do.

Of course all teams have injuries. What I was pointing out is that it really appeared the game HAD slowed down for him. He was becoming more effective at getting free starting in week 7 through week 10 when he was injured. Of course we need more help at TE, but Trautman isn't ready to be tossed to the trash heap yet, right?
