from what I saw, he is average--and the way they moved him around, understandable.  Great athlete and a great coach--

I think Bozeman  will be the LG and Elf will play C.  Love for Elf to be depth. 

If we go OT at 6 then Elf becomes depth probably.  I think they try to slide BC at LG which I'm not entirely sold on.  He seems like more of a tackle than a guard to me.

Idunno how much stock anyone is to put is PFF. But FWIW, 

Cross: 86.7

Ickey: 91.6

Neal: 85.8

Lastly,

Christensen broke the PFF record for overall grade by a tackle at 96.0

Keep in mind Greg Little was 75.8 and All-SEC. 

As far as me, even if Brady is in our plans at LT, after the years we've had to endure previously, I'd make sure LT was no longer a problem for this franchise going forward. LT at 6.

Passing on a LT because you have Christensen would be like passing on a QB because you have Daniel Jones.

Which might be what the Giants are doing.  I get what you are saying though.  However BC has only his rookie year's couple games to go off of.  Daniel Jones has a much larger body of work...

They both seem like back ups or low tier starters to me.  Either could improve to become average starters or better though.

BC doesn't compare well to most of the guys we could take at 6, he looks like a backup honestly. He would have to take a big time jump in playing strength for that to change in my mind. I'm not even sure he could beat out Elf at LG and that is a low low bar. It's a stupid and completely self inflicted position. 

Take the 10 year LT prospect and don't look back. If you end up with 2 LTs then trade the worse one for more than you drafted him for (it would be BC baring a miracle or roids).

This is another failure of Rhule to not foresee that BC needed to be evaluated. If a top LT falls to us we have to take him. BC might be a good player. He should have been starting mid season. But he didn’t because he was mismanaged by coaching. That’s not his fault. But tough poo for Matt Rhule. We have a problem that needs fixing. If we waste time giving him a starting leash and he’s just average then we lose yet again. We have to get a cornerstone LT.

      Who is going to take a shot at Malik Willis

      By cranky · Posted

      So Willis had a good game against a poor defense and all of a sudden he is worth 50 million and is guaranteed to be better than Young. LOL I know he looked good in the 3 games he started, and I think he will have success long term, but anyone signing him up for a long term contract for 50 million is taking a huge risk.

      Is he really though? Rivera was past his prime and probably shouldn't have even started 2019 so his firing wasn't really unexpected or unwarranted. Rhule lasted two and a half years which was about one year too long in my opinion. Bringing him back that third year certainly wasn't impulsive and I would say Tepper was more patient than he should have been. Wilks finished out that third season and did pretty good but most everyone could see he really wasn't anything more than an intern HC. Bringing him back was not the long term answer so not bringing him back was the correct call. Hiring Reich was a mistake from the beginning and he recognized that fairly quickly. I am sure he knew he was going to catch a lot of sh*t for firing him so quickly ( and boy did he ) but it was absolutely the right thing to do given everything that was going on. The firing may have looked impulsive, but I think it was him recognizing he had royally f*ck up and just dealt with it instead of letting it fester.  That brings us to Canales. 2025 was only his second season and yet he delivered 8 wins and the NFC South title. And while that might not sound great, given the lack of talent and cap space they started with, it's a strong step in the right direction. I couldn't imagine Tepper not being pleased with their progress given the crap the Panthers' have been though under his ownership.
