I don't think it really changes the draft situation.

They are only gonna try to find a way to fill in for a few weeks at LT at most and they won't spend a pick just to do that, they'd be better off signing a vet to just handle the position for a few weeks. And who knows, he may even be ready when the season starts the way some people have been recovering from ACL's in 6 months.

If they draft a OL in the first 2 rounds they were likely going to do it anyways, the injury doesn't really change much because it would cost a decent pick to draft someone who can plug and play. I guess they could try finding the RT for the future but they might of been doing that anyways before Bahk got hurt. If Linsley leaves though they will likely need to use at least 1 of their top picks on OL.


I think it was already a high priority and this certainly doesn't help
I thought I read somewhere they were anticipating a cap around 195 rather than the 175 feared
If it's closer to 175 though, I think Linsley is gone and one of Wagner or Turner also gone

If they lost Linsley they can't really afford to lose Wagner or Turner.

You can't beat the cost of Wagner as he is right now.

Turner isn't worth cutting because he'd still be 4.5m of dead cap and can play guard or tackle if needed.

They could also get Lane Taylor back next year as another interior lineman, which could also allow Turner to play a little bit of tackle.

They'll cut Preston Smith and open up some more space most likely as well. I'd expect Kirksey to be let go as well.

Plus they may have a couple names in house that they could give a shot. Like Runyan.



For the draft. I'd expect them to go after a DL early. The DL is absolute garbage behind Kenny Clark.
They could use a WR, ILB, and potentially a corner assuming King leaves. I don't trust the other corners on the roster to be CB2 after Alexander.

I think it's a stretch to call any of this year's d-line prospects first rounders
We need it, but it's not that good a class
ILB we always need, but again, there is only one guy really worth getting excited about, and he will go top 10
First round is prob CB, OT, WR imo

Depending where cap does end up
I agree that Preston, Kirksey are gone
And I think Jones, Linsley, King, Wagner
Gonna be a rough rough offseason for a lot of teams
