Move him to guard.

Why on earth would you move a good tackle to guard when we have good guards?

Hmmm.....even the GIF didn't tip off the sarcasm?  Merely dropping off some receipts dude.

It’s almost like the game plan to offset the pass rush had a positive impact on more than just the QB

Weird

What he did to Parsons alone should get him paid. But I dont think Icky is the money hungry type player. He will take a home town discount to stick around but even with that will be big bucks.

[Jon Snow]

Pay the man.

I was on the fence earlier in the season, but he’s earned his money.  Pay the man.

When do we get to see the positive impact it's had on the QB?

that’s all

thats the thread

what was looking like a bust has been steady seasonal improvement year over year

Bro going with PFF to justify millions.

He was clearly going to be a bust, but once some veterans were brought in to help him, it actually helped the entire line.

The goal is going to be to keep this offensive line together and not just piece by piece.

I mean he did only have one INT, one fumble that was picked up by Hubbard for a nice gain and one sack for no yardage lost.  That 's not too shabby, right?

Its an improvement.

Remember when the board was absolutely melting down because Bryce Young was making the entire o line look bad but for some reason they insisted that Ekwonu was a bust?

I wouldn't say he was trending toward bust. He was always a good run blocker he just struggled in pass protection. Our newfound run, run, run the ball pass as last resort offense suits him perfectly.

Based on how just shut down Micah… he’s going to get top 5 LT money

He earned it yesterday! Shut down the best defensive weapon in the league when every other lineman was a backup!

Atta boy, Icky!

[electro's horse]

Biggest LT contract ever incoming.
