Big Sala is one of my favorite players on this year's team. Would love to see him play as an oversized fullback plowing dudes in the NFL.

It's somewhat remarkable that the line is playing so incredibly well and yet has no surefire NFL prospect. Bass, Sala, and Forsyth are, at best, late round picks.

I'll be intrigued to see how Bass tests as he seems to have the highest ceiling of the 3 be it as RT or G.

I think Forsyth is a high floor/low ceiling kind of guy who makes an Active Roster next year.

Sala has been a big surprise but still seems like he needs another year of technique refinement on a practice squad.

Minus the false start penalties, no complaints. A joy to watch when they pull and come around the corner and destroy the second level.
