But they're also not inept at the position. They're banged up right now, but notwithstanding Mahogany, everyone is in line to be returning as soon as this week. And Awosika is not a bad replacement for Mahagony, he has starting experience in the NFC Championship Game.
Zeitler was not a plug-and-play option. He's only ever played RG. So now you're moving your rookie RG, who has shown a lot of development at the position, to LG or C, which they've said they don't want to do. And that's before even considering giving up assets and taking a cap hit for a player you elected to move on from just a few months ago.
Decker is a problem, but he was not realistically going to be replaced at the trade deadline. They've chosen their path with him, and it does not involve dumping off the side of the road in the lead-up to week ten.
The team is fine as is. The team is a Super Bowl contender as is. I have serious doubts that anything they could have realistically done today would have "put them over the edge" without mortgaging the future like the Colts did today. Give me a 1st round LT next year who stays for a decade over a rental that gives us a marginally better shot in the next 2-3 months.
