It's been a shocking turnaround, from the FA pieces of Lewis & Hunt being a success and then stacking that with depth pieces that have contributed on top of Ickey progressing. Turned around the offense on a dime. 

What they've done with Ickey boggles my mind 🥺

Absolutely no reason to rush him back.  The O-line is miraculously holding up.  Keep him in our back pocket for a potential playoff push.  I don't think his presence will make enough of a difference at the close of this season to really push games our direction.  It literally all hinges on Bryce Young being able to play at least adequately.  That's all this team needs.  If we get into the playoffs and Hunt is fully healed and ready, that's the time to bring him back.

Please do not rush him back if he is not completely healthy. Don't need him screwing up his biceps again and missing games next year also...

That being said, would definitely be nice having him back at RG. Although I do think Curhen has been pretty solid and was a good find off of the Cardinal's practice squad

Curhen has performed both well and absolutely terrible.

Ideally we get a real NFL caliber OG in there when Corbett slides back over.

I'll take solid with a couple of bad plays over Zavala being awful on just about every pass blocking opportunity.

Curhen was on the Cardinal's practice squad for a reason - he isn't very talented. That being said, I think he has done a solid job in the games he has played.

If the argument is Zavala vs. Curhen, the battle is already lost.

Not sure who but Curhen has former connections with someone on our staff.  They obviously knew something more about him.  He's no Andrew Norwell but we ran the ball at will with this guy so he does deserve some props.

Zavala for whatever reason cannot stand up to the demands of playing in the NFL.  He's collecting a paycheck but rarely is available.  I'd rather move on and work with guys like Curhan that at least can stay healthy.

Canales and Curhan go back to their Seattle days.

I gotta disagree here, reason being that our OL coaching is significantly improved.

You can disagree but I would suggest looking at recent games for Curhan.

I am not expecting the world, nor should any of us, but we also shouldn't be surprised when a PS player gets abused in games.

That's a very unsuccessful strategy.

Cuhran did not play well last week when I watched / noticed.  However, He does not cost us over $1m per game either.  He has been solid up until then-not sure how he graded vs the Rams, but I would bet "not great."  (just checked--a 56.3--not horrible).

      Draft Week Rumors, Leaks and Media Draftniks Final Mocks

      By PleaseCutStewart · Posted

      Hard to interpret some of Brugler's opinions. Capable of running a robust route tree sounds like a lazy thing to say - I'm sure just about every slot TE is capable of running a full route tree... I want to know if he is currently able to (which from tape leads me to a no). Granted, it's pretty common for most receivers/TE not having a full route tree developed before they get drafted. Agility/acceleration after the catch hasn't shown up on his tape (at least his Oregon tape) for those dig/out breaking routes while it has for the seam and slant routes. Agree he has a good physical build and he is very good running seam routes. His build definitely helps him to shield defenders and create a large target point for the QB. Drops were a concern, but it could be focus drops just like T-Mac was/is prone to. Run blocking is an accurate statement, but again, we have only seen him run block in the slot/backfield - inline blocking is a whole different animal. With his athleticism, he definitely has a high ceiling. I just think he also has a low floor and don't like taking that big of a risk on a mid 1st rounder. I think this is a deep TE draft and would much rather target one in the 3rd or later. He's very boom or bust to me - bust in terms of being worth a 1st round pick, not an out of the NFL in a few years type bust. I feel like he gives me Evan Engram vibes. Not saying that Evan Engram was/is a bad NFL player, just that most people would agree he shouldn't have been drafted in the 1st.

      I mean I would love 6-1. It’s funny the hurricanes usually dominate the first game and win by three or four goals. But keep the second game close. It would be nice if it’s the reverse of that tonight.

      Brugler has him as TE1 and going to the Ravens in the first.  Apparently Sadiq's football IQ is pretty high (interviewed very well).  Also he was an WR and CB in high school.  This is why I always thought his route running was solid.  I'm sure it needs some polishing but for a TE it's pretty good. nfl.com Built like a bodyguard with a compact, well-defined frame. Capable of running a robust route tree. Gets in and out of breaks with good snap and separation. Vandalizes defensive seams with impunity against man coverage. Survives collisions with catches thanks to his hand strength. Shows off agility and acceleration after the catch. Fits up run blocks with proper positioning and base width. Grips and presses forward with moving feet to stay connected. -Again I don't know if we should take him but if he goes to the right team he could become a scary weapon at the next level.  I just like him as a prospect.
