Offensive Line Improved Over 2017

I know some are reading this like I don’t know playa!  However, I think this unit is improved over last season based on a couple of things.

They have more depth than a season ago and should be stronger and in better shape than last year with the new strength and conditioning program.

The biggest key to this unit will be Willie Taggart’s emphasis on the run game. This unit has been a good run blocking unit the past few years.

It’s biggest challenge was pass blocking which it should have to do less of in 2018. The experience of the quarterbacks should be helpful too since they won’t have to go through NFL style progressions while holding the ball forever.

Those two things alone could at least give the perception this unit has improved over the last two years.

FSU football needs the injury bug to stay away from this unit as a number of the starters have played injured or been lost for the season the past year or so.
