This year's "mean streak" lineman

Yeah that mean streak want mean much if he doesn't have better technique or better feet than he showed today. The best Olineman today was Zion Johnson

I like Johnson a lot based on watching him at BC. I just didn't see much of anything from Senior Bowl OLmen to make me stump for any of them.

Much prefer the mean streak attitude to the "it's the NFL, sacks happen" attitude.

Overall bad showing for Oline, but I honestly didn't expect much from the group there. Zion Johnson played well in limited action though. He also played Center which he isn't accustomed to doing. Zion will be a very good LG in the NFL

 

Edit:

Unfortunately we don't have a 2nd round pick to have a chance at him

If we had a 2nd round pick I'd be banging the table for Johnson.

If we don't draft a T this year it would be like us not drafting a QB last year.

For me it doesn't have to be a Tackle just as long as it is somebody to get rid of some of the trash on our Line.

Trevor Penning...

Reports were that he was picking fights in practice.

Some folks don't like that kind of personality because they can make hotheaded mistakes that hurt you in games.

They also tend to play to the whistle and finish their blocks, so...

Always want Olinemen who have a mean streak on the field. Wanna stay away from the ones getting laid out outside of bars by dudes 1/2 their size.

Hmm, this is hard. We could insert a guy on the o-line who shows passion and takes his job seriously or we can keep signing guys like Erving and “Sacks Happen” Miller.

Not sure how the thread got this far without someone asking

"but how long are his arms"?

We need more of that.

I'm hoping we've learned something on that front.

Mind you, I'm not counting on it.

Don't think any of us care - but we won't be turning in the card with the name on it.

Penning destroyed his team's own pockets, QB, and RBs lanes while he destroyed anyone who was near him. He would level anyone even if it meant letting his assignment run free while hitting someone else and putting them on the ground. He is a penalty magnet too.

I don't question his size and strength. I do question his awareness and intelligence. He was responsible for rolling up QB at Senior Bowl practice too by throwing an edge rusher who beat him into the knees of the QB.

Hell yeah dude, I love watching Penning tape. He is mean as hell. Reminds me of Mike McGlinchey.
