Doesn't seem well planned. I really think they didn't expect Bak to develop, or Bak to resign...and then he did.
They needed backup tackles after the Tretter/Barclay/Sitton experiment. And yes, they were not sure Bach was going to re-up with them. I am pretty sure they were enamored with Bach before the draft that year.

Also Bulaga's legs weren't getting any younger.

Definite need pick.
