Ickey is fuging garbage - the official thread™


Recommended Posts

He'll show you flashes and then poo the bed. Hard to say if he's a bust or just needs more time to develop.

People forget he was viewed as a very raw player coming into the draft. He played well as a rookie but not as good as many seem to think.

We shouldn't jump the gun with him but if he continues to struggle at tackle we need to move him inside in the offseason and sign or draft a true LT.

For the record, I was a Charles Cross fan in that draft and had him as the #1 tackle prospect specifically because he was a good pass protector.

You can have all the big "hog mollies" up front you want but if they can't protect the QB then it doesn't matter how well they are in other areas.

Having said that, Ickey would be an outstanding guard so I don't think all is lost if he doesn't turn it around and left tackle.

Move him to guard already and stop bullsh*tting around.

Christensen might be small but he can play the LT spot till we can draft a class LT who can play the position. He can't be any worse than what we are seeing from Ickey this year. We can hope it is 2nd year growing pains and his 3rd year will be better.

    • Regarding BYs depth of target... Week 1 Week 2  
    • His physical attributes aren't going to change on a new team so I have no idea how he would pan out elsewhere but I can logically assume those issues he has had with processing which was supposed to be his key selling point before the draft would follow him. He was also supposed to be someone who thrives when the play breaks down but he has been inconsistent at best on that and at times horrific. I think where we each take a fork in the road on the determination of Bryce Young currently is you seem to still be treating him as a rookie and not a third year QB still repeating the same mistakes while showing that he has no arm talent to overcome even the slightest bit of adversity. I've said all along his rookie year and his sophomore season that I would be willing to overlook his interceptions if he was pushing the ball downfield consistently and even if he turned the ball over forcing a pass here and there to keep defenses honest I would accept it. But he has nothing. There is no deep passing game here. He threw the ball 55 times in Arizona which was 30 more times than Kyler Murray and only had a little over 100 more passing yards than him. Legitimately you should read that again and ponder it. That is embarrassingly atrocious. Circumstances here are not ideal with the WR's and OL but we cannot normalize this. It is horrendous. And we need to swallow our pride and begin scouting QB's for the 2026 draft. In the meantime this cannot continue on much longer for the sake of the locker room. And the upcoming schedule isn't going to get any better. If there is a silver lining to any of this we are going to find out just who Dave Canales really is throughout the rest of the season. He isn't getting a pass either.
    • I don't hate it but.....  eeeh it would take acquiring Kaprizov without giving up svech to make rod try Jarvis at 2C. Svechnikov/Aho/Kaprizov  Ehlers/Jarvis/Stankoven
