Chase  Winovich has been very good. Playing largely as a pass rush specialist, he has four sacks in five games. Not an every down player yet, but he gets to the QB. 

This saddens me and makes me happy at the same time.  Saddens me because he was in alot my falcon mock drafts and a guy i asked for in other peoples mock drafts to replace bad picks i wish we could have gotten him.   Makes me happy that he is doing well like i thought he would and i hope he continues to do so going forward.  With that said i think we got a very good one ourselves in Kaleb Mcgary at RT.  He has played some solid guys over there already and has held up tremendously well most games for a rookie.

I am amazed at McCoy's play. He was able to leave Carlos Watkins and his 1 career sack in 17 games alone with the guard on a stunt and pick up JJ Watt AS PART OF A DOUBLE TEAM and push him to the side and down WITH HELP when JJ had about a phone booth's room to maneuver.

The way his line dominated against lots of 3-man and even a 2-man rush was simply incredible.

This clearly makes him an upgrade over one of the best 4 centers of the last 7 years.

Overreact much?

He may wind up being a very good and very physical center. That play did not prove it nor did that game.

Who hurt you

Lots of Giants updates have been posted already, but I still need to bring up how good Dexter Lawrence has been. The coaching staff has been gradually increasing his workload, he played 75% of snaps against Minnesota, and he was a force. In both the run and pass game, he is dominant. He jumps out at you when watching film and he is impressing analytics guys as well with his pass rushing production from his interior spot. Nick Falato does really good all-22 reviews of Giants games on Twitter and he has been posting some Lawrence clips the past 2 weeks that are just awesome. It's a shame the Giants LBs are so bad, because that defensive front of Lawrence, Dalvin Tomlinson, and BJ Hill is very good. We need a Chase Young in the worst way.

Erik McCoy has slid into Max Unger's spot almost seamlessly. While Peat and Warford have both had very slow starts (actually, BAD starts) Erik has been holding down the middle with great pass blocking for Teddy.

C ERIK MCCOY, NEW ORLEANS SAINTS

The Saints’ second-round draft pick produced the best game of his young career so far, as he continues to solidify his spot in the middle of the Saints offensive line. From 42 pass-blocking snaps, he allowed just one hurry, zero hits and zero sacks. He has allowed just four hurries on 207 pass-blocking snaps this season and has yet to surrender a sack or hit.

So far, so good. He was a pass blocking machine at Texas A&M and appears to have handled the transition to the pro game nicely.

We've faced some strong defensive lines this year and he's been great against strong competition. He's got the physicality to develop into a great run blocker as well.

after having a BRUTAL start to the season, garrett bradbury has put together a nice couple weeks vs. good competition:

if he can keep this up then the vikings will have hit on OL picks in back to back drafts. in just three more years we could have a solid offensive line....

Dalton Risner is already our best lineman, although that might not be a huge bar to climb. He's been very good this year.

He has, but I actually think our OL has been, at worst, middle of the road thus far and that is without their starting RT. Connor McGovern has been really good; him and Risner are an excellent combination on inside runs.

Risner is an absolute stud. Elway's last two 2nd round picks (that were ours) have been Courtland Sutton and Dalton Risner. Here's hoping Drew Lock turns out as good ...
