So we are down our 2 starting OGs plus our top CB and it’s only week 2.

Sounds bad but a glance around the league shows we aren't that bad off relatively. Some teams are getting crushed by injuries. Giants really stick out

The stupid part of my brain say we should just release him. 
But the rational part of my brain says that he will end up on a team and not get hurt and we will lose out. 
I think we should ride him out but we need more depth next year and I think we seriously need to consider not giving him his 5th year option.

Geez. How was this not reported earlier by the team?  
 

I see we also added another WR with a blazing 4.54 40 time.  SMH 

I remembered him being a track athlete during that draft, and yes he was.

Men's 200m 1196 35

 

Without checking my notes, I thought he had a hard time to separate and one game he was locked up by a WR converted to play DB just for that game to cover him. He ended up with a TD but I think he was covered by another DB for that play.

Lots of people here was intrigued by him during that draft process. I wasnt sold on him. 

I think it is a decent pickup just to see if he has developed.

Why the hell can we never catch a break?  Like ever.  2015 and 2003 were the only years where things bounced the right way for us, and we made it to the Super Bowl both years.  God, I just want a team that is good and competitive year in and year out.  At least I am also a Braves fan because my NBA and NFL teams cannot ever get right.

I tell myself all the time "thank God at least one of the three teams I'm obsessed with is the Braves"

Looks like the Ekwonu-Zavala left side combo might happen sooner than expected. Reich said that the team was bullish on Mays during the preseason, so I could see him being easier for them to replace with Corbett once he's healed.

If Zavala balls out, he might hold that LG position until the rest of the season. If he doesn't, expect BC back starting (which isn't necessarily a bad thing!).

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?

      LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.

      After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
