When will teams learn that investing in an offensive line is the key to developing a young QB? The Giants are a bit late in this year's draft (Thomas, Peart and Lemieux) after getting Hernandez and Zeitler last year. As good as Barkley is, drafting the RB first is strange. Getting your skill guys killed before you develop a line seems backwards.

I enjoyed Fowler calling Blake Martinez "a tackling machine"

I had forgotten Martinez (not to mention Fackrell) had gone to the NYG until I heard his name called. So I tried to watch him when their defense was on the field.
He had a handful of tackles that were very good; either short- or no gain or TFL.
But the big boys on the Steelers OL were blowing him up regularly on what looked like trap-type blocks.
I think he looked just about like he did in Green Bay. He may compile a high number of tackles, but he's not an effective LB.
