I also think jj won, but its a good watch.(if you dont mind some negative fluff)

 

Pretty much a stalemate.  I think JJ clearly got the best of Ickey twice.  However, two plays in an entire game versus a top edge rusher?  Not perfect obviously, but pretty damn solid.

it was 12 plays(i think) where they 1 vs 1, still dont know what the role/job was for each play. I thought it was a clear win(overall) for jj. I thought it was the best film for Ickey, cause it wasnt the pancake highlight vs weaker/lighter teams/players. 

The thing i heard about Ickey is, he already knows what&how he struggled on. Coaches are not use to that behavior. Long run he may end up better than my guy Neal. I do think there will be some rough games early on and hope his health stays up, come year 2 he will be the best OLman on the roster. 

I just came up with this too- I think cobert needs to be the LG with Ickey as LT one day. Boz at C, __________/open RG, and Motown RT. I wanted to put Chirst at LG, but thats just too young of a Left side. If possible move the Vet Cobert to LG and he can hold his hand. Let Boz vs ELf for Center duties. RG is wide open, with my hope/dream that brown wins...

Hasn’t Corbet always played RG? I’m not sure he can switch that easily. I think Bozeman played some LG as well. Starting off could be Icky, Bozeman, Elf, Corbet, Moton and maybe slowly work a young guy at LG like Brown, Mays, or BC as the season progresses and Icky gets comfortable whilr sliding Bozeman back to C.

I agree, Elf is a better center than guard.  I know we signed Bozeman to be a center, but you play people to  their strengths.  If that means sliding Bozeman to LG to start, or even play the entire season there, then so be it.  I'm not sure we want a rookie or second year player next to Ickey.  He needs a rock next to him until he gets his feet wet and not another dude that's still trying to figure out how to play in this League.

I looked around some and found he did play some before moving and having success to RG. It was on the prorefence site, https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/C/CorbAu00.htm

I just thought it would be better to have a vet next to him rather than Christ, plus next year it would be the same deal rather than if Bozeman was the LG and leftd via FA. 

Ickey-Corbert-Boze-???(darkhorse brown?)-Motown

Bench- Elf, Erv(Id trade him), Chirst, Mays, MJ, daley(eww).

      Major Concerns with this team…with numbers

      By Stumpy · Posted

      The good news is that we are pretty uniquely well established to address all of our needs this season. We have $14m real cap space, and something like $40m in trade deadline cap space. Not sure exactly how that works out. But, we have the room to absorb any bad contracts. With recent rule changes regarding retention, that went into effect this season, we now have a huge advantage in the trade market.  On top of that, while we do have obvious needs, we also have a glut of talent in certain areas that we struggle to find ice time for. We are over-stocked on scrappy talented lil-guys, strong defensively sound 3rd liners and shutdown left shot dmen. Whether it's a package or separate deals, idk. But, one of each from Stank/Blake/Nads, Erob/Carrier/KK/Jank, and Walker/Nystrom; throw in some 1st round picks (and frankly any other prospects they want) and we should be able to come out with a 1b to pair with Bussi and either a 2c with size or a 2c and size.   TL/DR We got the money, you got the stuff?

      I don’t  think 6’4 was ever considered small or undersized. Baby hands tho, yes that was his thing That’s an interesting idea, like an optical illusion? Sounds like you have personal experience with this!

      in the 25' draft the Carolina Panthers had hired Brandt Tillis someone who actually understood how to build a successful team & build through the draft .  this team was yes mismanaged for years prior to Brandt Tillis joining the team in 25' & rarely done anything right in the draft outside occaionaly getting lucky on an UDFA such as Jalen Coker who's dad coincidentally happened to be a huge Carolina Panthers fan, hint hint  ...just saying
