wit33 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 (edited) Nah, I think you stay in the Scherff market, but I don’t think he’s resetting the market or anything, so his cost may come down. Being paid top 10 with some incentives to get closer to top 5 money or something. Keep the right side intact for next two years while rebuilding the left side, then begin developing replacements for Scherff and Moses. Any football player is getting injured on that play, it’s actually a testament to him that it wasn’t more serious.

He stays healthy Open to any and all options to improve the Oline. Thuney works. The team has money to throw and overpay even to fix the Oline next year if that’s the route they wanted to go. Not sure what percentage I’d put on players remaining healthy on being fortunate/lucky, but it’s over 50%. Absolutely nothing any player could have done to avoid the injury Scherff just got hit with, but I get it’s become consistent with him, so I wouldn’t pay him top 5 money due to his injury issues. Maybe another team will, who knows, but I still entertain keeping him around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommanderInTheRye Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 In addition to getting man ravaged on his rushes Isaiah Simmons looked lost a couple of times in coverage as well. Definitely a work in progress. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sinister Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) Any looming (actually good) FA o linemen coming down the pike? I don't think the draft will be enough. Starting to feel like at least 3 will have to be immediately replaced Edited September 22, 2020 by Mr. Sinister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgundy Yoda Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) I definitely thought Christian looked much better this week. It just seems like this line is never in sync, which is the sign of a bad OL I guess. Seems like one guy always gets either blown up or has a mistake on every snap.

Going Commando Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 They're not good but they need time together to at least get to decent. This is their first action together. They need patience just as the other parts of the offense do. But if we want the group to eventually be dominant, then we need like two new guys who are high end talents. Kevin Dotson would have been nice. Why do we never draft the college guards who were just stone cold studs at the college level? More often than not, what they do translates to the NFL, provided they stay healthy. We always draft these much more marginal guys who we have to talk ourselves into not being reaches with stuff like, "well he's athletic." 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malapropismic Depository Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Gibson's first and only TD came by running to the right side. That's our good side. Do you all think we should run more to the right ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who else is available? If Stanley is not franchised, I would make him the highest paid LT in the league. If you don't get him, Dawkins from Buffalo is the other young guy you get. Other realistic options include Okung (he is old though) and Cam Robinson (who has been up and down due to injury). In addition to the list, I bet Reiff gets released this offseason so he'd be an average stopgap to fill the role. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scherff surrenders ground immediately in a back pedal. This doesn't leave a pocket for Haskins to step up in. Im not sure why each would play with a different technique? Seem an odd way if by design... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you all think we should run more to the right ? The thought had crossed my mind for sure. On the flip side, I’d strongly consider running away from Thomas and toward McLaurin more often. Run blocking is supposed to be easier - I don’t understand why we aren’t running the ball more, throwing more screens, and moving the pocket when they do throw.
