Which would be fine for depth.

I would think, given the improvement shown by largely the same personnel on the OL, that Pinter would've looked much better in '23 than the last time we saw him play.

That said, while several guys had a down year in '22, Pinter was one of the egregiously bad performers. Hopefully that was an anomaly for him like it was for the other guys.

Pinter was god awful at OG in '22. Basically showed that he had no business playing the position. He was better after being moved back to OC, but he still wasn't good. Guessing they're bringing him back to compete w/ French as Kelly's backup.

As stated earlier, hopefully both he and Bryan signed for the vet minimum w/ no guarenteed money.

Hopefully neither of these guys becomes a modern day Josh Thomas.

I read Blackmon is coming back. That wraps it up, right? That everybody?

Hopefully not, but for some reason Ballard gave both of them some guaranteed money (Bryan - $1.1M, Pinter $.5M), so I wouldn't doubt that one of them does

I think that is about all the cap we have left, once you consider the rookie draft class, and in-season churn.

Ballard should extend Buckner for 2 more seasons to create some cap room and cut MOC.

Yeah, I looked earlier today, and saw Buckner's contract expires this year. Extend him soon, because he has a few more productive years left.
