i know its early but whos turning out to be the best tackle?

I personally am a dumbass because i wanted chris williams, who cant crack the starting lineup in chicago...heard a very knowledgable bears fan griping about this on nfl radio today..I remember we faced albert in the k.c game but dont remeber him being good or bad..just now starting to hear about clady since we'll be facing them on sunday...With that being said otah has got to be the best value pick out of these tackles imo...cant belive before the draft i had otah last on my list(to my credit tho i wanted a left tackle who could pass block and run block)

clady = LT otah = RT, i'd love to have a stud LT like clady personally. throw in baker(baker is now on ir, but did fairly well before the injury) and brown (even as a vt fan, surprised at the props he gets) other 1st rounders that have been solid. was a good crop so far. otah might be the best run blocker, but clady imo is the best, might not be the runblocker otah is, but top LT bar none outa this draft as a pass blocker, and is developing as a run blocker, and LT is the most coveted spot on the oline as its the blindside to the QB (unless qb is a lefty).

yea, we know. he said otah is new to football, because he didnt start playing til his senior year in highschool. he is still learning basic fundamentals of the game. no-where to go but up with him.

Ah I see, I never knew that. Well you're right about him going nowhere but up. There are so many young players in the league right now and I can't wait to see them in like 3 years.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By strato · Posted

      I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
