I think Mays makes the roster, though he might not be a part of the starting group (my prediction there is Ekwonu, Christensen, Bozeman, Corbett, and Moton).

Now pick 3 to 4 players from below and we've got our OL group:

  • Deonte Brown
  • Dennis Daley
  • Michael Jordan
  • Pat Elflein
  • Cameron Erving
  • Mike Horton
  • Sam Tecklenburg
  • Austen Pleasants

tbh I'd be okay with just taking Brown and two traffic cones at this point

Give me that starting 5 with Mays, Elflein and Irving. Brown and Daley can battle it out for the last spot.

Jordan can get cut the first day of camp for all I care.

Brown, Elflein, and Erving, IMO. Erving and Elflein are versatile, and should be decent back ups. THEY IN NO WAY ARE NFL STARTERS! Plus, we're paying them anyway, might as well let them hang around. Brown and Mays are both on 6th rd rookie contracts, so they're basically free.

Just listening to him speak is reassuring.  He has a calm confidence about him that just impresses me.    He doesn't sound like a 21/22 year old fresh out of college.  He strikes me as being cerebral like Gross and at the same time nasty like Norwell. 

 

 

 

That's a hell of a combo! I like it.

I said after the draft that it wouldn’t surprise me if Mays beats out BC for the LG spot. As far as we’ve gotten so far, Moton, Ikem, Bozeman and Corbett are probably starters so LG is the open spot. I hope BC and Mays are the leaders for that spot. Erving or Elflein would be a big disappointment and Brown is a project that I don’t think is more than a future backup. Between Mays and BC, everything seems to point at Mays having the greater potential. He does remind me of Norwell. Power 5 starting OL that due to being a G and maybe not being the ultimate combine guy, drops way too far.

I would love for him to snag the starting LG spot in camp, and let BC really focus on tackle and being a backup/ high end swing T.

Christensen played so well that people are upset he didn't play more yet we want a 6th rounder to replace him already?

Is this just about wanting things to unfold in a way to maximize criticism of past decisions?

No, many of us think that Christensen is a better prospect at tackle than guard.

    • Ehlers needs to sit. Definitely can't lose him to a meaningless game.
    • Bet didn't hit because the referee missed 3 clear corner kicks. I had a 5k parlay that would have been alive tomorrow if he didn't miss those calls as well. Super annoying 
    • I don't think it's at all a given that we have players who are good at driving the basket. I guess that depends on your definition. Bridges is 43rd in attempts in the paint Miller is 64th and LaMelo is 66th. We all love to see the lob threat but it's largely miniscule at this point in time. There's gotta be a solution here if LaMelo is to be the centerpiece because this is simply not sustainable if we want to continue to ascend. If he can't drive to the basket then that means we need to add another player to the core who consistently can. That would require moving someone like Miles Bridges. And that's certainly not going to be popular with LaMelo but something has to give here for what we are investing and we need to maximize guys like Miller and Knueppel on rookie deals while we still can. The three chucking is fine when it's working where the issue comes into play is there are no adjustments when it isn't and we just go into a shell and begin to look like the Hornets of yesteryear. That's why the offensive evolution of all involved is critical to us taking the next step. Getting to the play in is nice but we should have our sights set much higher. Right now though they need to take care of business against the Heat. All I ask is that they at least beat those fools. I cannot stand the Heat.
