then why are you trying to job shame him?

Brady Christensen... Last game of 2022, broke his ankle. First game 2023, tore his bicep week 1 and out rest of season. Played 2024. Played 8 games in 2025 before tearing his achilles tendon. BC: will be 30 and have gotten season ending injuries 3 times. Not saying he should not get a 1 year deal, but, can't rely on him being a starter. Moton: 32, some issues. Hunt: 30, (2-3 games?) injured early and ended season with a new injury. Lewis: 29, some injuries. Corbett: 31, some injuries. Mays: 27, some injuries. Nijman: 30, some injuries other season's. Curhan: 28 (don't know) Zavala: 27, some injuries. Ickey: 26, could have a career ending injury. The team need to get younger at the oline. I asked Chatgpt.com and it listed Panthers to be the 7 oldest starting line during 2025. Even if that wouldn't be 100% correct, the combination of age and injuries should be enough to convince most that OT needs to be addressed during the 2026 draft and probably also C/OG.

cmon man, there is no argument to the idea that Young is better than Stroud currently. We'll see how it shapes up next season.

that to Mcshay gives him a complete scouting report in his newest podcast. He is not as bad as his last Georgia year. Miami has been good to him. Not a day one talent but he has potential and he has a poo load of experience

FTFY

That is a valid point. Brother, he is a below average pass blocker in a phone booth. He would get decimated on the edge.

We could sign a stop gap LT in free agency too. We might have to dramatically overpay but there are a couple of older, solid guys coming available that might be into a one year cash grab.

Say or feel however you want about the totality of their 3 seasons but if you think Stroud outplayed Young this weekend you are handicapped intellectually.

He's pretty much exactly what I thought he was during the draft process. A really good backup or meh starter.

a steal in the 5th

to be fair how many games did the unit play fully together?

always excuses, always

Stroud had a strong run game and defense to lean on. Rams knew the pass was coming and they still couldn’t fully contain Bryce.

move ickey to guard next year and find out what to do with hunt. can he play RT?

Yeah Icky getting hurt really messes with what we need to do. I think we could go OT this draft as a result of that injury. But we have cap space and I have enough trust in the FO to fill the holes prior to the draft at this point.

I dont think he was ever sold as a offensive genius. He was sold as the QB 'fixer'. I would say that the jury is still out on that. He has this next year to make BY a top 15 QB. If he does that then I think he earns that title considering that last year BY was talked about being the biggest draft bust ever.

Mays I view like BC. He can do an admirable job as a starter but he will never be anything other than a bottom third starter. He is a top shelf, critical backup. Hunt would be a net negative salary cap impact to cut/trade this offseason. He also has a $9 mil guarantee that gets triggered on March 13. He would be easier to move in 2027 but I am not sure there will be many takers at his salary. We need to start getting serious about drafting a real C, some interior depth/starters and at least one starting caliber OT. As much as a strength as that unit has been, we are over invested monetarily and the returns have been underwhelming.

Lets not forget...

It's concerning that Canales isn't an offensive genius he was sold to be. He's a good motivator and manager of the locker room, but in today's NFL you need your head coach to be more than that. Otherwise, he needs to relinquish his play calling duties to someone who is.

I think it's a lot of issues. Bryce being a big one but I think Canales lack of in game adjustments and his very poor general game preparation weigh heavily on the overall offensive output. We can have flashes and some of the first drive scripted stuff can be great but I am not sure we have ever seen a truly great end to end offense performance. Perhaps Atlanta?

Agreed. He's vastly overpaid - not sure if they can restructure him or release him after next year if we can draft his replacement I thought Cade Mays did a solid job at guard.

He tore his Achilles and he is a free agent. At his age, he will likely not be signed by anyone until he can pass a physical. It's possible his career is over or he misses all of 2026. If he is able to recover well, perhaps towards the end of next season we can bring him in to help out. Truthfully, the FO needs to overhaul the OL room after the two major injuries.

this is what cope looks like
