No doubt we need Olinmen and specifically OTs more than any other position except of course the all imporatajnt QB position.
I don't know much about this Bolles kid in terms of his abilities but I see he's another Mormon boy who starts with a couple strikes against him.
Because of his missionary sabbatical he would come in as an "old" rookie as he'd be 25 at the start of the 2017 season. Also according to info on him he played 2 years of JuCo ball before going to Utah which means he didn't play but one year of major league college ball. And he didn't play offensive tackle until college.
So this kid may be potentially a tremendous talent but sure sounds like a real project who we'd have to wait for to develop and we need help quicker than that right now from an offensive tackle.

Good intel, nice work. Mormon = no thanks. We already have one Mormon OL and he sucks. Get those stiffs off the field and put them back to work looking for the lost Nephite city of Zarahemla.

QB it is, then. Righty-o.
