Norwell and Foucault - 2 UDFA Offensive Linemen on the Final 53

[TheMaulClaw]

He was cut.

 

I think he means "The Canadian Farm Beast 2.0."

[DaveThePanther2008]

They can't "stash" him because they're afraid he will get sniped. He's gonna get IR'd unless he's really that good to make the team.

You are probably right.  Says a whole lot about his potential.   He was a big a dark horse as any we have had.  For him to come this far says a whole lot.

I think Foucault could be holding Alexander's roster spot. You stash him on the roster long enough for teams to get settled in and then waive him and put him on the PS once Alexander is activated. 

 

Just a theory of mine. 

 

If that were true, we would have six DEs.

[MHS831]

Norwell might be more valuable as a reserve than a starter--he can play everywhere.  However, he is making a name for himself.  Not even considered the best OL on Ohio State's roster.  If Norwell finds a spot in the lineup, it will be RT.  People do not realize what a find he was-they will soon.

 

They are grooming Foucault to play LT.  They see potential in him or they would not have kept him on the roster-he will not see much, if any, action this year.  He reminds me of that tall OT out of Colorado Nate Solder.  He was a first rounder and it took him a year to develop.  I think we could have something here.

Whats crazy is some of them can play interior as well.

[DaveThePanther2008]

Norwell is going to be good. Anybody that disagrees doesn't know poo about oline play.

I know this sounds like ever other Huddler but,

 

Do you think he will eventually be one of our tackles? Or just a reserve that can play both tackle and guard..  Seems he has a huge upside.

 

He played tackle at OSU so he wouldn't be like a fish out of water.

True--but we carry 4 DTs as well.  I don't think we can afford to carry 10 DL.

 

During the Pittsburgh game,  I think I saw 4 DEs in on a passing situation.  

 

I just do not see us carrying 6 DEs.  I would not be surprised to see a trade during the first four games of the season.

I realize this was directed toward SCP who played G in college, but I would like to add that there is value in a player who can be inserted into any of 4 positions as a reserve.  Saves a roster spot.  However, I think he and Foucault could challenge for the starting jobs as early as 2015.  Now, I defer to SCP, but I coached OL in high school and I am in the habit of watching them (I was SO HAPPY we cut Scott, by the way).

I was laughed at by a couple members of the Charlotte media for talking him up during camp. I am now photocopying a picture of my buttocks for them.

I hear you.   You at least know what you are talking about.  I do not rant and rave about how this guy sucks or not because I am not focusing on whether the guard or tackle pancakes someone.   I am too busy watching Cam and hoping he does something spectacular.

 

From what I hear though.  Norwell is a perfect example of a Hog Molly. Big, Nasty and Strong.

 

You steal these guys out of the UDFA market and they pan out.  Your roster becomes solid top to bottom. 

[Rules&Regulations]

Do we have a drafted OT on the roster? That's not a good sign to me.

It's a good sign that we didn't draft one this year. 

[MV%doe]

Yup the nflpa should love the IR, it adds another 50-100 or so players getting 500,000+ per year. Please give me that to rehab!
