Is there a legit immediate impact offensive lineman out there worth trading for?
 
It’s painfully obvious our offensive line is a major liability even with our starting lineup relatively healthy. If we are to have any real shot at the playoffs or Carr reaching his full potential we need to find someone dominant and versatile to help keep him off his ass. Is there a player out there who would be an immediate difference maker worth trading for? How much would you be willing to compensate for such a player.

Carr can be the guy but he can also be a little ***** willing to point blame. He’s tough but is notorious for forcing the ball when he sees his protection breaking down. We saw it in week one with that dumb pick and again Monday when he threw way behind his receiver in the end zone.

It seems like this team is always a position group away from being outstanding. A couple years back it was WR. It’s happened with TE’s and running backs prior to that. It’s like they completely ignore one position group while loading others to compensate.
Our line was one of the best in the league for the better part of a decade, now we are bottom 5.

Not until the trade deadline which is October 31. There have been so many injuries to offensive linemen already that the demand will be huge and the availability minimal, if existent at all. I'll guarantee you that half the league, or more, would trade complete OL squads with us in a heartbeat.

Not really. And I might be in the minority but while the isn't best O-line in the league, I think it's sufficient and it's going to get better as the season progresses. The defensive lines for the Saints first two opponents are really good as well.

You aren't in the minority. At least among the informed.

Yikes.
Maybe it’s time the Saints see what Salvederi can do at guard.

Maybe we just need to have 5 players chip on every play to help all our oline. ...and someone needs to get open really quick.
