Scouting Ikem Ekwonu

I suspect that by midseason Ickey will be playing pretty well.  Most rookie linemen get abused no matter how strong until their technique improves.  If he doesn't give up too many sacks that it gets in his head, he will be fine. We need to give him some help with guys like Garrett to help him hold his own otherwise we could lose some games while we figure it out.

Rookie LTs are pretty much never elite regardless of where they’re drafted. It takes time to get the hang of the position in the big leagues. If Icky can even be average this year, which I think he can, it’s a huge upgrade for us.

Actually, LT is a difficult position.  Gross had his problems his first year.

Unless you have short arms apparently.

Well except for Joe Thomas and Willie Roaf but we are talking HOF Tackles.
