What game against high comp did Ickey struggle?

Didn't struggle just didn't play high competition facing an SEC line all year vs whatever State was lining up against is a HUGE difference, Ickey is here because he's local that's okay we got him at 8 Neal is still the way better prospect

So you're faulting Ickey because he didn't play in the SEC? That's not a knock. I agree Neal was an excellent prospect as well but Ickey has a higher ceiling and the potential to be the best LT in the league

I like both too I think Ickey will be a franchise LT for us but you can't deny the step up in competition does defiently mean something

Which top 10 NFL LT played for a SEC school? I think Tunsil is the only one.

Which top 10 NFL LT played for a ACC school?

I think the better question to ask is what top lineman have played at that specific school Alabama produces way more o line talent than state

The point here is that the conference is not a real factor for the best LTs in the NFL.

You are drafting the player, not the school.  Bama OL, when compared to their productivity, tend to underpeform their draft spots--they are inflated.  But to say Neal was way better---not according to the film I watched.

Ickey will not be great during the first part of the season in pass protection, but he should develop because he has the tools.  I'd take Ickey over Neal all day long in run blocking, and we want to run the ball more. We drafted an RPO QB as well, so he is perfect for where we are heading.

Olave with second round grade and Trevor Penning with im assuming a third round grade

Could still turn out to be good players but yikes considering what they gave up for that extra 1st

Second round grade but 15th on their list.  He didn't go far from where they had him ranked.  Teams usually don't have 32 players with 1st round grades.

Very interesting they had Ickey that low tbh 

They had him 9th and he went 6th, not really that big of a difference.  Also, regardless of what people say need factors in.  From a pure grade perspective we might have had some of the same guys higher than Ickey but OT we a bigger need.

and your point is?

OT could have been their biggest need but that doesn't change the fact that they had higher grades on other players.

Need doesn't factor into a players grade, it factors in when you pick them.  That is two different things.

Is that board a list of the order in which they would have drafted players or the ranking of the players grades.

      Bryce stats past the sticks

      He can be our post injury Delhomme in 2008. I am fine with Hubbard and Dowdle being our Willliams and Stewart.    Canales has some eating to do and hair to grow if he’s going to be Jeff Davidson tho.

      This season was about continuing to dig ourselves out of the crater Fitterer (and by extension Young with the three first round picks we traded for him) buried us in. Tepper is determined to make Bryce happen, so we're forced to play him at QB and adjust around his obvious inadequacies.

      Has nothing to do with the yards per carry, like at all. It's that 17 of his 25 passes were less than 10 yards downfield, against the worst pass defense in the league.  It's another game where Bryce's passing attempts were mostly dink and dunk type of passes. I wasn't asking us to throw it more yesterday, hell, if anything, you could make an argument that with how we were running it, we should have thrown it less than 25 times anyways.  It's that we still threw it 25 times but only had 8 of them where the ball was thrown 10+ yards downfield. Our schedule takes a dramatic shift after this week, even next week against the Jets, they have a decent defense for a team that hasn't won a game yet.  This was a great opportunity to allow Bryce to throw the ball downfield more against the worst pass defense in the league, hence I'd just have liked to see more than 8 of 25 passes be thrown further than 10 yards downfield. IF we were going to throw it 25 times against Dallas, I'd have liked to see a good 12-15 of them be further than 10 yards downfield, let Bryce work on his weakness against the worst pass defense in the league, not throw more dink and dunk passes per usual.
