Oher Struggling Early in Camp

Is Remmers just not even worth a look at LT to the staff?  I'm more comfortable with Oher or D. Williams at RT (Remmers at LT), than I am with Nate Chandler ever seeing the field at LT. 

That's my question.  He's played it before back in the day and seems more in-line size wise for an LT.  Remmers at LT with Williams at RT would be what I'd like to see an experiment with if things with Oher aren't working out come regular season.  Not saying do it now, but if things aren't working down the road.  I'm definitely willing to see Oher through.

Rivera would rather our rookie try out at LT because you know...we're clueless when it comes to LT.

who would you like DG to have drafted/signed? Seems like Hurst is the only one who got away. we could have grabbed him with a 7th. otherwise, there hasn't been anyone we could have gotten who we passed on.

with Oher, I don't think anyone expects him to be great, or pro bowl calibre. the question is, can he be good enough.

Little late for that question now. We have Oher and that's the end of it.

Yep. This tells me for now, the FO really struggles in evaluating o line talent. Which explains the lack of 1st rd o linemen drafted so far. It's a blind spot.

There have been no 1st round OT's worth drafting since Gettleman took over. 

He did manage to find us Remmers at the bottom of someone's roster. He knows what he's doing. There have been some decent guys out there, but they were all overpaid and it showed. He has yet to overpay for a player.

Not even going to worry at this point. It's too early, and even if it turns out he's not an upgrade, we've got several upgrades on the team already.  It's hard to believe he will be worse.

  • We're going to get a 10 yards per drive head start just because of Ginn.
  • We have a legit receiving unit.
  • We have a healthy QB.
  • We have a better secondary.

Why are we stressed that 100% of our problems haven't been solved before training camp really gets underway?

3 out of 5 OL positions have been upgraded between the 2014 draft and remmers being brought in.  i mean damn we got two new guards who are quality starters in the draft/UDFA and a solid if unspectacular right tackle off the scrap heap midseason.

you can't do that without serious scouting and film chops

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By csx · Posted

      I just dont get the worry over losing a practice squad player that just went undrafted. Everyone just made their selections. The chances of a team wanting to sign him to an active roster after not selecting him is very low.  If that interested they would have taken him late to evaluate in person. As far as I can tell two qbs were signed off another teams practice squad last season and they were both going in to their 5th season.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By frankw · Posted

      I enjoyed reading this thread and the usual banter that follows. The only silver lining I can identify right now is we do actually have a couple of young QB's behind him and we do have a nice roster on both sides of the ball built around the most important position. So if the team overall shows some promise but we still falter largely due to a lack of consistent passing output (again) hopefully the decision makers can be free to make the best decision for the team going forward after the conclusion of this upcoming season.

      I don't really follow the team anymore due to a variety of reasons and consequently have largely stopped posting but I agree that this is a lovely website and community. This forum probably kept me around for years longer than I would've stuck otherwise because of how difficult it was to stop checking multiple times a day. Especially appreciate how lax the moderation tends to be compared to a lot of places, the crew here does a great job. Out of curiousity I decided to try making a new account (solely for testing purposes) to see what exactly is wrong with the sign up process. The issue seems to be that it never sends you an account verification email, thus making it impossible to complete registration. This is likely something to do with the email server upstream, hope it gets fixed. Also, lol
