I wouldn't say bad as much as inconsistent...................at times thing clicked (heck the scored 24 points) but just not consistent as a good power run block oline looks like........

and the funny thing is lines love to run block over pass blocking for obvious reasons but the Panther oline seems to do better at pass blocking than run blocking.......

That was teh worst DL in the league thus far? Could have fooled all our shitter OL who got consistently ran over.

This poo isn't gonna fly for real.

I'm beginning to think that PFF is ass.  I always thought they were off, but now I'm begining to think they don't even watch the games.   They said the jets have a top 10 OL, after Wilson has been sacked 10 times in two games.  We beat on him on nearly every drop back.

I only ever see that poo on here TBH. I just actually watch the games. OFC you can't notice everything so it can be good to do comparisons especially for players or positions that are harder to see. I don't take any of it to heart in the slightest. Especially since a lot of the QB metrics dont' take into account like Cams running and power ability to pick up 3rd/4th and not just 1 but 2 yards out and stuff like that.

Wanted Sewell, was boardline on Slater at our original draft slot (do want now), could have traded back for Darrisaw (not looking great with the minor injuries delaying his start). I'm fine with Horn, but still think the value was at OT. Get Neal  or Linderbaum via the draft next year and start nailing down the left side bookend or center position for the long term

Penei Sewell PFF 71
Rayshawn Slater PFF 67.8
Christian Darrisaw core muscle surgery
Alex Leatherwood PFF 32.0
AVT PFF 68.8
Tevin Jenkins back surgery

Erving has not been the weakest link on this line.    Even last night.

Erving has experience at LG, where he is better suited

Linderbaum is my current draft crush. Would love Neal but I feel like there is almost no chance we will be in a position to draft him. We should seriously just use every pick we have on OL and if just 2 pan out as good starters I'll consider it success. Just go full on shotgun style.

I think the ratings leave some context out. 

Like with the pass block win rate. Does that include when no one engages a pass rusher? If not, then that doesn't even factor into the equation, which results in a better grade for the o-line even though they let a rusher come in uncontested.

    • Love the Freeling pick even more after watching his pressers. Dude is sharp and definitely seems to have the right mentality. I loved hearing how personal he took having a bad game with a torn labrum and instead of seeing that as the reason for his bad game and not changing anything, it motivated him to work even harder. Such a great pick, we finally got our all pro level LT for the next decade and now we can move Ickey to RT or guard with no hurt feelings due to his injury. Second favorite pick is probably Brazzell. He said he false started on his 40 and it cost him probably 0.04 seconds, so he’s more of a 4.33 guy rather than 4.37. Really Randy Moss lite. I didn’t know anything about him prior to drafting him and first highlight reel I saw of him I immediately thought he looked like Moss. Then I saw the measurables and was like yep. Then I see that he’s drawn that comparison by many scouts and analysts. If he can add consistency and play to the level of his highlights every play then we got an incredible value.
    • During his three years at UGA he only allowed 5 sacks. He is only 21 and is on an upward trajectory. He's a great athlete that was good basketball player in high-school.  His height (76% how is this only 76%???? these guys are giants now), hands (81%), span (99%), speed (96%), quickness (10 yd. 86%), and explosiveness (vert. 96%, broad 97%) are all outstanding.  When we took Freeling, Fano, Mauioga, Proctor, and Miller were all off the board so we could have drafted Iheanachor or Lomu instead or waited to the second or third round to take Bell, Tiernan or Barber or wait even longer.  A lot of these tackles (including the first two taken) project to right tackle or guard in the NFL and that's not what we needed now.  Freeling has some sloppiness to clean up in his run blocking, but he's young and getting better.  We can let him get experience behind Walker and Moton knowing if he has to replace one of the two this year, his pass blocking won't get Bryce killed. Icky's not coming back from that injury as a nfl starting left tackle and Moton is in the twilight of his career.  If Walker has a great year, we will have to pay him a lot and if he is medicore we would want to let him walk.  Getting a LT on a rookie contract is going to help a lot with the cap.    
    • It was cool but they have done this at least in recent years unless I am imagining it
