2. What is the front office’s long-term plan for the offensive line?

Jared Goff has been able to turn the corner and be one of the best statistical quarterbacks the last two seasons not just because of the brilliant offensive mind of Sean McVay but also because he has been behind one of the better offensive lines in football.

This year, that offensive line is going to begin to show some cracks and Goff is going to be pressured more than he has been the last two years. The line should still be above league average, but it is time to start the rebuilding phase on what was a short-tenured group of guys.

Rodger Saffold is no longer on the team, neither is veteran center, John Sullivan. Veteran left tackle Andrew Whitworth is on the last year of his contract, and even if he re-signs past this season, he is only getting older.

There is going to be a changing of the guard, literally, for the Los Angeles Rams’ offensive line and the 2019 NFL Draft will show us exactly what the team’s plan is moving forward. Does the front office start now and add the final pieces next year?

Or, is the front office going to examine what they have now, ride with that for another season and then go all-in next offseason with the draft and free agency?

Possible teams the Rams can trade up with. dark. Next
