Imagine watching him run the track on stretch left? Heās not getting the LB. Marpet should be the only survivor tbh. Iād expect 4 new starters and Iād shift Marpet back to RG, where he was actually playing well before we started messing about with it for no reason. Weāve needed a draft focused on the oline for a long time, which 2015 aside, hasnāt happened since 2006. We're stuck with Jensen for next year. And I'd pencil in Cappa for RT and bring in competition. Or keep Wester and Liedtke and have them a part of the competition. I honestly think Benenoch would be ok at LG. He'd have help almost every snap. And he's good if he can get his hands on someone. I'd also draft at least two olinemen. Throw them all into the mess and start the last five standing. No rotations. No waiting on guys while garbage play starts in front of them. Gimme something like: Liedtke/Wester/Cappa/new guy-Benenoch/Cappa/Liedtke/new guy-Jensen-Marpet-Cappa/Wester/Liedtke/new guy Cut the fat and move on. Jensen can go next year if he doesn't step up.

Ā I think we 're going to find out because I doubt a new regime is going to franchise him. Ā I m okay with Marpet and Jensen. Ā Dotson is physically beaten down. Ā I don t even know how much better Dotson is then Ā Wester at this point. Ā There will be no changes besides injury this year. Ā Could #TossRight work in '19? USC also ran a lot of zone blocking. Which is good for cutback lanes. And that's a big part of what made Rojo so dangerous. He'd either get the edge or cut it back and be gone. He broke a lot of arm tackles. Zone blocking is also what Le'Veon Bell ran behind in Pittsburgh. Not sayin', just sayin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ā Almost like the CB drafted a few years ago plays well in press, but constantly has been asked to play 8 yrs off the LOS. Ā Oh, I m sorry the former DC said he let his CBs had the freedom to line up where ever. Ā So is the player just stupid not knowing whereĀ he lines up best. Ā Or could the former DC may just be doing a little white lie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravishingone Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Sorry Todd that s not the adjective I would use to describe the pass protection since the Saints game. Ā Of course, regularly throwing over 40 times a game isn t doing the oline any favors at all. Ā He has to see what Benenoch is putting on film.

Ā Gurley is terrific, but can t run the route tree like Bell. Ā I would expect him with the Jets. I m okay drafting another RB, round 3 or later. Ā I m not down on Jones or Barber, but I m assuming a new coaching staff won t be as vertical. Ā Having another RB who can run more routes then the current onesĀ I find beneficial.

Not if he wants (and gets) that $16M he reportedly wants. Maybe if he gets closer to $10M. But that puts us on the hook for a lotta money on an underperforming line. We're already doing that on the dline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
