Ben Johnson's offense has had a Top 2 OL for basically his entire time in Detroit.
Clearly he has NO INTENTION of seeing if it still cooks without a decent OL on paper.

The only way a Ben Johnson offense was going to work in Chicago was to have great line play.

Drew Dalman to Chicago has felt like a lock for weeks now. I know folks have mixed opinions on him but I do like that, after last year’s disaster class, they gave Williams a veteran center.
The Ben Johnson era begins with a major investment in the new IOL—Thuney-Dalman-Jackson.

I know Vikings fans wanted him but that’s crazy for a C. Vikes line wasn’t THAT BAD for most of the season. Upgrades are needed but not at these prices. Kwesi will find his deals like he did last year
