Re Martinas - he missed all of the OTAs which puts him way behind so it may be overly optimistic to expect him to help us in 2018.
On the plus side, the OLine looked descent in limited action in the preseason opener on Thursday.
Yep. Rankin is on the PUP list so I'm not sure if he is coming off of it any time soon or perhaps becomes midseason elegible - not sure how all that works. It would be nice if he is back at some point to get a taste of playing in the NFL and not miss the whole year over some minor (I believe) foot surgery....
