Bigger offseason need, offensive or defensive line?

We have been piss poor at drafting either so who cares.

This.

Fire Tom Cable...

And this.

We need center, left tackle, inside pass rush in that order. Unger and Okung can't be relied upon to stay healthy at this point in their careers. Center makes the line calls so we might be better off trading of bringing in a free agent with some NFL experience.

BOTH.

However, the Dline can be fixed through coaching and perserverance. The pressure is there, problem is no one is finishing. Maybe they need to work in tandem more? I have no clue, but Pete is too good a defensive mind to not get these issues resolved by the time a playoff push starts to heat up.

Respectfully disagree. You can only coach or teach interior rushing technique so far. We have the same D-line coaches this season as last, plus our D-coordinator is a defensive line guru. Why isn't it working this year? No McDonald, that's why. It's purely a personnel issue IMO.
