..for who was on our roster going into the preseason:

LT M. Kalil: We're not getting worse but we're not getting better here...contract lock

LG Van Roten: He showed up when needed last year, has the experience, is not a thrown to the wolves UDFA.  Best run blocking OG outside of Turner which is big.

C R Kalil: Self-explanatory 

RG Turner: Self-explanatory

RT Moton: Honestly, he has a bigger upside than Williams and it is why he was a 2nd rounder.  Dion Dawkins taken 1 pick before, Moton has really good potential and has a bit more turn than Daryl.  He has a ceiling to protect from the speedy and the power in a really effective manenr.

So there it is.  

Adios

I think the line the will be fine. These guys have to stay healthy though and I applaud Daryl for making an attempt at a return.

If Ryan can stay healthy then that will do a lot to maintain consistency for us. That lets Larsen float around the guard positions

We had two All-Pros on our OL last year. One is gone and the other is going to miss an undetermined period of time. We're getting back our former All-Pro center. Hopefully Turner will bounce back from a somewhat disappointing performance last year. Regarding Turner, and Norwell, I hope that we're not looking back in a couple of years forced to acknowledge that we re-signed the wrong OG.

I’d still like to think it’s possible that Matt kalil plays like he did his rookie year (Lol). I’m not saying it’s likely, but... I mean, idk 

 

lets just say every year he lies and says he’s healthy, but this year he’s actually healthy! Bam! Now we have a stop sign not a speed bump.

Think moton will be solid. Whoever wins LG might not be so great but probably better than AS so that’s a win. Ryan kalil still not playing? Still pissed about last season. Someone needs to spill the beans on wtf happened bc I don’t buy this sleep funny oww I broke my neck poo one bit

Swap out Amini and Williams and is it really that much different? worse? better?  

I'm excited about Moton but Williams was 2nd team all pro for a reason last year and to expect Moton to be even close to that is a stretch. We've barely seen him outside of jumbo packages in real game time. I'd temper expectations with him, but I am sure glad as hell we have him behind Williams.

Turner was helping the Center spot a bunch last year. Moton looked really good as well. I think Thursday showed a OC with good game flow can counter a good defense and pass rush. You could also see our line was still not pushing the Dline yet we still moved the ball. Something Shula didn't do.

Unpopular opinion. I know. But Taylor Moton starting makes our right side better. Daryl Williams was overrated honestly, and Moton’s superior athleticism is certainly showing already. Had a strong showing against the Bills.

Of course, I’ll let Moton continue to prove that down the road. Hopefully, he will so that we don’t have to worry about the right side of the OLine with Daryl Williams out.

Left side. As long as Amini doesn’t start, it’s not a catastrophe. Hopefully Mahon and Van Roten continue their strong performances.

Moton has the feet to play LT in the future for sure.

      Quick Posting / Embedding Tip

      By jfra78 · Posted

      When Twitter first changed to X I was able to get it to embed with various tricks. When those stopped working, I stopped trying and don't really blame anyone now for posting links and not embedding.  I'm not going to download a new browser just to be able to embed on this forum.  Hopefully Igo was serious when he said he was going to fix it.

      100% fact. people forget Stern was a NYer.  Theres been what 10 picks since that were gifted to teams? Even Lecommie said he believe the lotto was rigged when the Cavs just happened to get the #1 pick for the local hero. They also got the #1 Kyrie Evring when Lecommie leftd for miami. I bet that's when he started the Diddy parties too... Zion Timmy Duncan  AD Rose to bulls Victor Wembanyama Cleveland got 2 more #1 overall AFTER Erving fixing the lebron BS.  Yao Ming got to pick his sity... That's all that I remember, even one is total joke, https://www.si.com/nba/bill-simmons-accurately-predicted-mavericks-would-win-nba-lottery-back-in-march   Just more or less WWE, but at least WWE refs are not criminals. Players bet and shaved points, Im 100% sure of, especially if Michael Jordan did for years.... I am shocked I lasted until Larry brown with the bobcats before I quit being a fan. Any NBA new I see is not by my will/want to follow.  Total joke, I hate the government more than NBA, but they should expose the fraud that league is so it can dissolves and a new better league can start. Maybe then the players will play in all the games like years ago......I mean LOLLOLOLOL you can not play back-2-back games when a breath of air is a fool?? Total joke, I hope the whole league folds. frauds!! I can not respect any owner that allows this.
