Message: <blockquote data-quote="Allen" data-source="post: 226591" data-attributes="member: 389">lacking, IMHO...not saying they have done nothing.  I prefer homegrown talent rather than trying to steal/overpay someone from another team who probably has a better idea of their value to their own offensive line.  The Vikes have for years tried to have one stud on the line surrounded by a bunch of middle of the roaders from the 4-6th rounds in the draft.  It generally takes several years for those later round picks to come around on the line, if they every do.  Elflein and Reif are fair to good players, but the other three spots on the line are occupied by players that don't grade out that well.<a href="https://athlonsports.com/nfl/nfl-offensive-linemen-rankings" target="_blank">https://athlonsports.com/nfl/nfl-offensive-linemen-rankings</a>So when you put them all together, they will need someone to really step up if they want to crack the top half of the league rankings for offensive lines as a unit.  <a href="https://sportsnaut.com/2018/06/ranking-nfls-top-15-offensive-lines-heading-into-2018/" target="_blank">https://sportsnaut.com/2018/06/ranking-nfls-top-15-offensive-lines-heading-into-2018/</a> Of course, these were done even before the Vikes found out they were losing Easton for the year, and I kinda liked his potential.I suppose if I looked hard enough I would find someone who ranks them in the top half of the league, but I don't think I'd put them there.  And that will spell trouble when they run into the better defenses.</blockquote>
