We aren't running the ball as much or effectively and DEs are teeing off on straight rushes to BY as fast as they can a la Brian Burns.

Icky looked pretty decent last year because instead of always knowing he was going to be in pass protect like this year, there were times he could just go ahead and maul the DE in front of him in the run game.  The offense doesn't fit Icky being at LT.....guard yes, tackle no.

He would fit better at guard or RT.  I bought the hype that we had found our LT but always in the back of my mind wondered how the road grader aggressive run blocker we all heard about pre draft had magically became a pass pro expert.  Moton needs to man up and earn his salary on the left side instead of right. He can't be worse at this point than icky.

I don't know what the issue really is.  I get Corbett was out for the first part of the season but how the hell did our O-Line go from being a strength to a huge weakness.  We have the same O-Line Coach.  Coach Campen is a well-respected coach in this league.  Are we running a different approach to the way we block?  

Of course, it is much easier for a defense to pin their ears back when they know we have to throw the ball.  Icky got abused yesterday.  There was one play where the defender planted our 300+ Lb OT as if he'd never played the position before.

It was so embarrassing when they replayed him getting bullrushed on his backside. And I thought it couldn't get more embarrassing after 5 false starts in Seattle. He's definitely not living up to his draft status, let alone being drafted.

I'm an NC State guy and big fan of Ickey but there is no way to defend this as he currently looks like the second coming of Byron Bell right now. 

 

 

I wish i could argue that point but I cannot. Let's just hope the coaches can get him to reach his full potential or he will become a big bust.

I just don’t know anymore. He had some terrible reps.

Unfortunately that was just one example yesterday, and I’m not even sure it was the worst one.  
 They need to stick burns on him in practice so he can work on some type of answer to speed rushers

There was an offensive scheme change and not sure he fits it

Brady is also not a LG.  

it is a total mystery,  when it’s clear he needs help, that offensive coaches are not giving it to him and are letting their #1 draft pick get mauled every game

there are certainly was to scheme around this situation  the coaches are just not doing it     I guess they are ‘just a wishing  and a hoping’ for a miracle 

Frustrating , There were warning signs with the last game injuries to key starters last year and nothing of consequence was done to fix it and lack of depth

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
