I think that is why guys like Ekwonu and Penning stand out specifically to me. They just have that personality that they are going to try and destroy you every play.

When Icky talks, you can tell he loves being out there.

Hell, I got no problem doing something because you are good at it, and they pay you well...no problems at all....I do that at my job.  But there is a difference you can see if they love it.

When I hear this, and see it...the only thing that makes sense is that he doesn't really love to play the game he does it because he's good at it, and he can get paid to do it.

Nothing wrong with that, but I'd rather have the guy who loves the game even if a touch less talented than someone who does it just because he's a big athletic guy.

I think he is also more laid back and doesn't have that nastiness you look for in OL.  He is very talented and can still be great, but if you give Neal's Icky's meanstreak you would have one hell of a LT.

NOOOOO!  Pickett completed 46% of his passes when the pocket was not clean

I think there's a legit possibility Pickett is worse than Darnold. But Pickett isn't already ruined at the NFL level so there's an air of hope that always surrounds a rookie.

    • I mean, I think you're being a little hyperbolic with the last statement, but point taken. 
    • Pass rush was the biggest issue in tonight’s game, and we were tied for 28th in sacks this season. That is a major area of need that has to get addressed this offseason. I just don’t see a path where there’s a game changing QB you can bring in with where we are drafting and quality of veterans that will be available. We certainly can do better than Dalton as a backup, and should ideally have a developmental guy  (perhaps a day 3 pick this year). We have bryce for one more year on a reasonable contract and then I think 2027 is the year that you reset that position (unless he massively improves).
    • Agreed, honestly basically bringing this group back as a healthy unit would be alright.  Brady Christensen should be resigned to a very reasonable deal with him recovering from the Achilles.  Atleast we're alright at 4 of our 5 spots with Lewis, Mays, Hunt, and Moton, Nijman was decent.  While if we can snag a deal on someone, take a stab, however our resources need to go to Linebacker, Pass Rush and a real option outside Tmac (coker is amazing, but if we can get someone who isnt braindead opposite Tmac, we can fully unleash Coker AND Tmacs full potential, cant move him into the slot if racoon boy is out there licking doorknobs).
