Right Guard. Without it, we stink.

As I see it, we have 3 major options right now. What would you do?

A. Stick with Bernadeau

B. Go with Duke Robinson

C. Move Schwartz to RG when Otah returns

So your choices are: The Deau, the Duke, or the Dude

If you answered "A", you are going on the way things seem to look at the moment, and that is MB is starting at RG. If you answered "B", you are banking on the Panthers' love for big plow horses at RG, and still hope that the reason the Duke dropped to us in the 5th round can be overcome. If you answered "C" Perhaps you did so because the acquisition of Barton suggests that we are going to look at Schwartz when Otah returns.

The correct answer is: "C" Schwartz has the ability to drive block and the feet to pass block. Otah's injury, however, is delaying the transition. By game 3 or 4, look for the Dude to move inside.

Yes, he does. But he has worked primarily at G, getting a few reps at center. I also agree that Duke at RG solves a lotta depth issues. He can be taught, but he has to be smart and have some feet. His work ethic makes improving questionable.

I agree that it will be MB--but for how long?

We wanted the best pass blocker in the first two games because we were going to focus on the passing game. Schwartz had to take RT, but he was starting at RG at OTAs a time or two. Robinson has the job if his lazy ass decides he wants to play football.

      BREAKING: Panthers sign QB Kenny Pickett

      By strato · Posted

      I agree.  I don’t think I have ever been accused of being a Howell fan. No more than fan of some other random QB.   But I watched and I saw. He has some talent. Maybe I didn’t watch close enough to see his weaknesses.

      We signed Lloyd

      He is a pit bull when it comes to that.  And after he missed out last year on Williams, it seems he is trying a different approach, looks like. Don’t hold back. No half measures, because someone will come and full measure your ass. Close the deal. He left a little opening for The Patriots last year.  He closed so far this year. Of what we know about.

      Steelers sign RB Rico Dowdle

      By strato · Posted

      They have been doing the mercenary one year RB now for a little while. Foreman..  It works pretty well. You can find ball carriers. The passing game trips a lot of those guys up. Pass blocking, route running, they have a lot to know.    Rico wasn’t a great pass blocker but he got in the way most of the time. He is a really good pass catcher.     He’s tough. Needs to find out why he was cramping late in the games. If he can fix that maybe can step up even more. Wish him luck. I think he’ll do well.    If Brooks can be something, what a bonus that would be at this point.  I really believe they went for him because of his extra layer with being a good receiver. And we need more of that with what we are working with trying to move the ball.
