I’m truly rooting for Fields and not at all trying to throw him under the bus here, but it’s on the QB to shift protection pre snap. Even the best OCs don’t just know where pressure might come from before the defense even lines up.

Fields looked really good, fire the coaches ASAP
MHJ regardless, if Fields is the guy, then everything is falling into place, if Fields isn’t the guy, build the team up, suffer through another year, and let the new guy come into a great situation in 2025.
I would personally avoid forcing DE just because it’s our biggest need, draft the top talent over the position of need at the top of the draft. Alt/Olu/Bowers for me are above Latu, but I wouldn’t hate the puck either way.
For what it’s worth, PFF rated Mustipher’s performance against the NY Giants last year as a 6/100, so I don’t know where you got that example from.
I think people have generally been saying MHJ and Olu/Alt. The nameless “draft x position” has been DL/edge. It’s up for debate if there’s any edge player worth a top 10 pick.
I do know if the protection is wrong, the QB has an opportunity to correct it before the ball is snapped.
