Eric dunn Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 If Kline is the player that Titans fans said he is, then Samia will be starting some games at RG this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikesfan89 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Someone convince me that this isn't going to be another lineman that everyone loves that doesn't do anything. That always seems to be a theme but I like the position at that spot. It gives Elfein and Kline a chance and this kid can develop in the meantime 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it is a 4th rounder, so that is more likely than not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Samia has a better chance than guys we have taken in previous years though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VikeManDan Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 At worst he provides depth and competition this year. At best he takes the starting job and runs with it. Really like this pick as others have said he’s got a nasty demeanor which can hopefully rub off on the others in the OL room! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENINCH Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 I think he's an Alex Boone type that actually will back up the trash talk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted April 28, 2019 Author Share Posted April 28, 2019 Kubiak and Dennison is why I have a lot more confidence in this pick than in previous mid round picks. Not only do Kubiak and Dennison know how to coach their zone blocking offense, but they know exactly what type of players they need for their system to be successful. I don’t think our previous OL coaches, or even coordinators, really knew what types of players they needed. Which likely made scouting very difficult. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t help previously we literally would change OC’s ever year. Changing schemes after schemes, playbook on playbook. Hopefully we find something with stefanski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changing schemes after schemes, playbook on playbook. Hopefully we find something with stefanski Shurmur left, which did create a void. Turner was a poor hire, never should have joined Zimmer's staff to begin with. Will see with Stefanski, but he's probably getting a HC gig if the Vikes offense is somewhat improved. Opening the door for Kubiak to become OC, maybe he can be the longterm OC. Not sure if he has an interest in being a HC again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things do change, but he’s pretty much said he has no interest in being a HC. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
