Isn’t this guy one of the reasons the Falcons spent two first round picks to fix the online last year?

Honestly, they were trying to replace him last offseason at LG with Carpenter. Brown came along for the ride, but they didn't trust Brown. Neither first round pick had anything to do wiht Schweitzer.

3 year starting LG for the Falcons. Started the super bowl. He can compete with Wes Martin, I don’t think either is a huge drop off from Flowers and they may be better - especially Wes Martin.

No he didn't. He's like a 1-1/2 year starter only because of injury. GREAT depth guy who can play C or either guard role, but don't expect him to come in and be a beast as a starter. Did better in ZBS than other schemes though, idk what y'all are running there. He does fit the cheap OG play that Rivera likes.

If we're basing how ready our OL are based on how they catch fish I think I know why we were 3-13....

Well obviously, that was a joke. 

Ok, well how about how Wes Martin performed against Fletcher Cox and the Eagles DL twice last year? Amongst others teams after Scherff was shut down.

All of us said that we didn't even notice Scherff was gone except for one missed block in the run game.

He didn’t face the Eagles twice.

I like some of the video I've seen from him.  I need to send some of it to my dad, who is an offensive line guru (sent a ton of players to DI schools) and see what he thinks.  I am concerned that we are spending a lot of money on backups though, but Schweitzer is the only one where we offered more than two years, so that's better on that front.
