Best combine by far for a OT, but for me that means little to nothing.

Each year huddlers are reminded not to overrate combine, each year that don't. I mean a player that works on the start of his 40, can improve it form 4.7 to 4.5 easily. Fisher looked hes been taught by a GREAT OL coach to prepare for the combine. They know the drills, just shows he put in work.

Look at Oregon stats in the games he played vs. the ones he didn't play. They're staggering.

If Fisher is there at #25, I WANT HIM.

Will do, form technical standpoint he looked flawless. Its early in the process, I had him as a solid early 3rd, but I'm betting he will look better at his pro day. Riser confirmed.

Ourlads (which is used by pro scouts and personnel) has us taking Jake Fisher at #25, writing: "For Cam Newton ever to realize his full potential there needs to be a sense of protection in front of him. Fisher is not underrated in the NFL scouting circles and projects to be a long time starter."

already off the board were Peat, Flowers, La'el, Scherff and Erving

ex-scout Bryan Broaddus shares his thoughts on the OL at the combine :

"Just watching these offensive line workouts, it appears that there are more candidates to line up on the right side than on the left, which could help the Cowboys in case they have to go that direction. The tackles that worked out well enough to consider on that left side were T.J. Clemmings, Jake Fisher, Laurence Gibson (of VT) and D.J. Humphries. I wouldn’t be afraid to put anyone of these guys I mentioned on the right side as well."

My favorite in the draft class. Watched a lot of his games. No reason he wasn't in the talks for 1st round in the first place imo.

 

Jawan James was projected to be a second to third rounder last year.  He was arguably the best roolie LT in 2014 (went around #19).

 

We tend to look at one or two sites and value players based on what those crack heads tell us.  However, I cannot see why Flowers is better than Fisher--In fact, I think Fisher is a round better.

 

I rarely hear talk of Laurence Gibson, and he will be a second rounder, imo.

      In addition to Evero there's one large change that likely should happen.

      It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.

      CBS Sports brief discussion about questionable Canales decision making

      By TylerDurden · Posted

      Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
