Beason, Gross make A.P. All Pro

Gross has been very solid this season. I guess I just can't see how he's one of the two best tackles in the league.

He's not but there has to be some reason a pair of non all pro backs ran all over the league this year. It can't be because the backs are talanted or the rest of the line is very good, so it must be because of the left tackle that's being talked about because he's in a contract year...

If we make some cuts ("dead weight" like lucas, kemo, hackett) or restructure (delhomme) we can keep both pep and gross. bank on it.

Did you really just say Kemo is dead weight? Seriously? Did you forget about the 300 yards rushing the Giants hung on us when Kemo was out?

They don't have to cut "dead weight" to keep anyone they feel is worth the money. Marty is one of the best at manipulating the books to keep them complient.

The question is do you pay Gross left tackle money? IMO it would not be wise, they'd be better off drafting a rook and moving Wharton back out or Otah over.

Gross just isn't worth the price he's going to demand.

It has to be his whole body of work and his pass protection in particular. If you look at Williams stats you will see that he is picking up the least amount of yards running over the left side compared to the right or the middle. He is averaging over a yard more per rush running behind Otah versus Gross. So it clearly not his ability as a run blocker.

Well he isn't a great pass blocker either, and he plays for a run oriented team so go figure LOL...

My point is he didn't deserve it, he's an average left tackle on a very good line. The voters don't look at film they look at stats, and read headlines.

    • I mean the whole defense was trash, he was at least trying. Besides if you put a all-pro among 10 PSers, that all-world will look human. It's very hard to judge very bad units and find the best players among them. Horn and Mjack played well too, there was 0 pass rush and -1777784 run defense. 
    • I was looking back and seen Evan Neal has made the switch to OG after awful years at OT.......I wanted him over Icky for his tricep alone..... I was 100% stroud too, I was super pissed about his record setting and playoff leading start......I had arich vastly over the midget BY too. But right now, BY is about the only one on the up&up. The Texans used lots of prime draft capital to help Stroud.  It's still not ready. But if you're honestly about past drafts, these GMs are not alone in making mistakes.  I still feel they should stayed put and allowed Carter to fall in their lap, but best I know Tepper had the worst rage about landing a QB for the past 5 years. The deal is with the correct coaching staff, Baker or darnold would still be here....Baker has signed 3 years for 100 million, which is a great NFL QB contract. Tepper hiring rhule and his shitty Baylor/temple staff was a massive setback given rhule was in control too. Then panic set in an d fitteerererererer had to make a winner and find a QB. Ugh.....I hope they are back... 
    • Also maybe the biggest part is his fromer college buddy, Lord Lamar told the GM to sign him. It was done nearly right after and guess who was the first person Alexander met at ravens stadium??
