Fernando Velasco & Trai Turner

The line really played unbelievably well honestly. Just seem them fall forward was great. Deangelo looked better than he has in a long time, you could hear the contact on TV. He was running hard. 

 

I honestly think DWill is going to run inspired this year b/c of his mom's passing. he looked like a completely different RB than the previous few years

Have to agree with Carolina Chuck about rotating the O-lineman being a superior concept. Keeps everyone fresh and builds experienced linemen out of rooks. Man I have a great feeling about the way this team is being run. I only see one fault which I hope the coaches see and correct. It is this, we must not take our foot off the gas late in games and lose momentum defending a lead rather than attacking all game. Isn't it an obvious and well known football fact?. An aggressive attacking offense can ironically have a similar  effect as a great defense!

They both looked really good and I have been very positive about our OL this offseason... but I will admit when Kalil left the field for those two plays my heart dropped through the floor cause they didn't show him leaving on TV and you could see that his presence was missed. I saw a couple plays where turner seemed to get a lil spun around but I think him and Velasco did real good.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
