Cam Erving didn't look bad overall

[Zod]

In retrospect, Cam Erving didn't look all that bad last night. The biggest issue by far seems to be at LG and C.

Why we didn’t draft a true C to replace Paradis I’ll never know.

Also kind of easy to look better when the guys around you are getting smoked off the snap.

Yeah, the interior oline looked to be the weak spot. Coaches really need to rethink the starting 5.

This is a really good question. There had to be Cs in the draft available that were better than Paradis.

2021 wasn't as good an opportunity but there were many others in the 2019 and 2020 drafts. Erik McCoy really stands out over drafting Little.

Wasn't this the steelers second team? Imagine If tj watt played.

Paradis sucks

That Paradis signing just keeps looking worse and worse in hindsight. Luckily this is the last year of his deal(minus the void years). 

I can remember how much we all loved that signing at the time. Little did we know....

I have my doubts Darnold would have finished the game against the Steelers starters with that O-Line

Paradis looked as bad as I have ever seen him.

That is why you don't listen to fan enthusiasm on the signing of a player.  I'm guilty of it myself sometimes.  Paradis was always overrated to me but I'm not a pro scout.  I'm just a fan

I remember it being lauded by all the sports journalists and writers at the time too. I guess sometimes you just never know. I remember a lot of us trying to excuse it as him recovering from that broken leg but this dude looks like he is playing with two broken legs.
