OT Yosh Nijman announces he’s retiring

[Cavscout]

Current projected O-line:

LT Stone Forsythe

LG Damien Lewis

C Luke Fortner

RG Robert Hunt

Rt Taylor Moton

 

[Thompcat]

Wouldn't it make sense to sign Rasheed Walker? He's supposed to be an average tackle.

[frankw]

I didn't know he has already been in the league seven seasons.

Either way we were going OT early in the draft.

[Khyber53]

Well sh!t. Sucks for us, but best of luck to him and his future endeavors. Thanks for being out there for us, man!

[LinvilleGorge]

Oof. Not good. Stone Forsythe can't be our planned stopgap.

Rather have an actual stone out there

My hope is he was signed to be a swing backup to whoever ends up starting at LT. They might be circling tackle in the first in red marker though

It’s ok guys. We have Stone Forsythe. 

His feet are made of stone

Somehow we lost our starting LT, our backup LT, our backup to the backup, all gone at once. And we are out there spending huge contracts on edge rushers.

There are several good OTs in the draft with pro bowl player comps. And their projected availability coupled with the BPAs available around them will make them the smarter draft pick. We signed Phillips and Lloyd, so we can get the best tackle available on the board at 19. People who wanted safety or TE there would be horrible GMs. You have some franchise tackles in this draft and because of all the athletic freaks like Styles, they will be available. In conclusion, the BPA at 19 would be Blake Miller, Caleb Lomu, Spencer Fano, or Kadyn Proctor.

Based on what I’ve read he’s more gap than stop

Hurts on depth but ultimately he wasn't going to be replacing Ickey really anyway

Miller is a real gamble. People say he is just a ROT. He has played about 100 snaps at LT in school according to someone I watched give a breakdown of these guys. Which most people have missed when talking about him. But that’s it. And thinking he can start at LOT off of that is pushing it. 
He fits into the hole Moton will leave, but I don’t know how much it helps us this year.

And he is the one that keeps being there at 19. 
 

We need some kind of plan for sure.

Wouldn't be mad at least 3 of our picks on Olineman at this point.

With a micro mini QB you need a solid depth line......

Yep

and the ability to move away from a couple,of those large contracts with younger, cheaper players

my issue,with Yosh…..do it before free agency
