30% going to the pass rush.

Its a 1 off-season fix, not a 3 year plan.

Just my .02

Define "address".

Since that was my take, too, I would define "address" as in hitting the free agent market and further developing some of what we have in house during the off-season. I'd still draft o-line via the draft, but not expecting a quick return.

If we could simply place a consistent lineup out there week to week it would help as much as replacing bodies. I have always felt a successful o-line needs to know and feel exactly what the man on their right and/or left are doing in every situation. 15 different lineups in 17 weeks makes that pretty much impossible.
