Is it time for Daryl Williams?

I'm not sure that I've seen any of this improvement with Williams you speak of, In fact, I thought, by the thread title, that you meant time to pull the plug. While I think it's too soon to call him a bust, I think Remmers is a better RIGHT tackle right now. In fact, I've been in favor of letting Hawkins or Williams try the left (with help), and putting Remmers back on the right were he was at least competent.

Go back and watch the last game. Williams did a solid job.

I think it should happen now. Oher and Williams could be a very solid tackle group. And now the right side of that line has some chemistry with Williams there. Not sure Williams is that much better of a pass blocker but is a better bruising run blocker. We're going to need to get Stew rolling with Oher back and possibly Williams inserted at RT so that we can play ball control and have an efficient offense while doing just enough on defense to get some wins. Still have hope for the season. The offensive line, secondary, and d-line will all be improved coming out of the bye and hopefully the team can finally just get on the same page. Too much talent for us to not make the playoffs.

Do I have to, too many bad memories?!?  I admit that I missed the first quarter and a half due to DVR technical difficulty, so the first thing I saw was a replay of Cam's TD pass to Funchess being intercepted and a score of 21-0, so I wasn't in the mood to critique tackle play. I'll keep an eye on him, but I don't feel that Remmers was doing a terrible job on the right. Now on the left side, it's a different story...

You kidding? I was honestly shocked at how good Williams has been doing. He's been doing real well imo, better than Remmers at the least.

PFF rating on Williams the past two games?

Found something.....

Olsen continues to produce

WR Kelvin Benjamin had one of those frustrating games he’s prone to having, as he dropped two passes and mistimed his jump on another ball that fell incomplete. TE Greg Olsen caught six of his seven targets against five different defenders, the shortest of the collection still going for 11 yards. While tackles Mike Remmers and Daryl Williams combined to give up a sack and seven total pressures, the three interior lineman each posted clean sheets in pass protection.

Do the Saints count as a good measuring stick for OT performance??

He's been doing well against the Saints, Falcons, and Bucs. All honesty he's an upgrade at RT. Remmers has been doing horrid at LT so no one really noticed, but overall I like what I'm seeing from Williams.

Yuppers. Daryl has played well the last three games. Don't let the doubter get to you. If Daryl keeps this up, all we need to do is upgrade that pesky LT position.

 

I'll be honest here. I was nervous that first week, but he played really well. And he has kept that up over the last two games. It does appear as though he has finally make the RT position his own. I am now finding myself begging to run to the right side behind Trai, and Daryl, instead of always going left behind Norwell and Remmers.

 

It is fun reading people still dogging on Daryl. It can show who actually watches, and who just parrots what they hear.

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
