Andy Benoit Ranks Free Agents

People are still blinded by the same physical limitations that made Norwell go undrafted. There's absolutely nothing special about him in terms of an athlete compared to other NFL OL but the guy can just flat out play. Tom Brady has a ton of physical limitations as a QB too, but the guy can just flat out play. Not saying Norwell is the Brady of interior OL, not by a long shot, but once the combine is over and you're an NFL vet with proven performance none of that underwear Olympics stuff is relevant anymore.

This guy doesn't have a clue 

Star Lotulelei (28), Panthers
He possesses excellent short-area power and the athleticism to shoot gaps as a pass rusher. He’s not Fletcher Cox or Aaron Donald, but he could be the missing piece that makes a good defensive line great.

I'm sorry but star has never been a pass rusher. He is a two down tackle.

Andrew Norwell (26), Panthers
Not as good as his befuddling first-team All-Pro accolade suggests, but he plays with the balance, dexterity and physical strength to improve a team’s man-blocking running game.

I agree, he's overrated.

Andy Benoit doesn't even know what pattern matching is and thinks it's highly unusual when the Patriots do it.

Quote

"Against 3x1 sets with a line of scrimmage tight end isolated on the weak side (a staple Eagles look), the Patriots even showed zone coverage and played man, which is highly unusual."

Like goodness how's he employed.

All his analysis is literal garbage.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
    • He had heart surgery a while back he looks Fraile I hope he is okay
