Is it time for Daryl Williams?

I'm not sure that I've seen any of this improvement with Williams you speak of, In fact, I thought, by the thread title, that you meant time to pull the plug. While I think it's too soon to call him a bust, I think Remmers is a better RIGHT tackle right now. In fact, I've been in favor of letting Hawkins or Williams try the left (with help), and putting Remmers back on the right were he was at least competent.

Go back and watch the last game. Williams did a solid job.

I think it should happen now. Oher and Williams could be a very solid tackle group. And now the right side of that line has some chemistry with Williams there. Not sure Williams is that much better of a pass blocker but is a better bruising run blocker. We're going to need to get Stew rolling with Oher back and possibly Williams inserted at RT so that we can play ball control and have an efficient offense while doing just enough on defense to get some wins. Still have hope for the season. The offensive line, secondary, and d-line will all be improved coming out of the bye and hopefully the team can finally just get on the same page. Too much talent for us to not make the playoffs.

Do I have to, too many bad memories?!?  I admit that I missed the first quarter and a half due to DVR technical difficulty, so the first thing I saw was a replay of Cam's TD pass to Funchess being intercepted and a score of 21-0, so I wasn't in the mood to critique tackle play. I'll keep an eye on him, but I don't feel that Remmers was doing a terrible job on the right. Now on the left side, it's a different story...

You kidding? I was honestly shocked at how good Williams has been doing. He's been doing real well imo, better than Remmers at the least.

PFF rating on Williams the past two games?

Found something.....

Olsen continues to produce

WR Kelvin Benjamin had one of those frustrating games he’s prone to having, as he dropped two passes and mistimed his jump on another ball that fell incomplete. TE Greg Olsen caught six of his seven targets against five different defenders, the shortest of the collection still going for 11 yards. While tackles Mike Remmers and Daryl Williams combined to give up a sack and seven total pressures, the three interior lineman each posted clean sheets in pass protection.

Do the Saints count as a good measuring stick for OT performance??

He's been doing well against the Saints, Falcons, and Bucs. All honesty he's an upgrade at RT. Remmers has been doing horrid at LT so no one really noticed, but overall I like what I'm seeing from Williams.

Yuppers. Daryl has played well the last three games. Don't let the doubter get to you. If Daryl keeps this up, all we need to do is upgrade that pesky LT position.

 

I'll be honest here. I was nervous that first week, but he played really well. And he has kept that up over the last two games. It does appear as though he has finally make the RT position his own. I am now finding myself begging to run to the right side behind Trai, and Daryl, instead of always going left behind Norwell and Remmers.

 

It is fun reading people still dogging on Daryl. It can show who actually watches, and who just parrots what they hear.

    • I thought we were going to do it this year with Jenkins
    • I don't think the Jags are picking ahead of us anyways, at least not if Lawrence plays the rest of the year (or most of it). Here are the very winnable games left for the rest of the teams ahead of us in the draft right now... Jags (2 wins) - Titans x2, Raiders, Jets, Colts Giants (2 wins) - Cowboys, Saints, Colts Titans (2 wins) - Jags x2, Colts Browns (2 wins) - Saints, (Dolphins if they sit Tua as it's 2nd to last game) Raiders (2 wins) - Jags, Saints Patriots (3 wins) - Colts, Rams (it's home this week, 1pm game, Rams on short week) Saints (3 wins) - Browns, Giants, Raiders Jets (3 wins) - Colts, Jags, (also Dolphins last week if no Tua) The Patriots are the only team there that doesn't play another one of these teams, and the Browns and Jets are the only others that don't play at least 2 of them. We're not beating the Chiefs or Eagles.  We're not winning road games against the Cardinals or Falcons with them fighting for playoff positioning (assuming the Cardinals aren't locked into their place by week 17).  I also, personally don't think we're beating the Bucs in either game. Which just leaves the Cowboys, we lose that game and we're picking Top 3 or 4 at worst, still a legit shot at #1 because as of right now, the Jags are the only 2 loss team that we'd lose the SOS tiebreaker to. Even if we beat the Cowboys, with how many times all those teams play each other, or have other winnable games, I think we still end up 4-6. Yea, if we end up beating the Bucs or have another surprise upset too, it will end up dropping us further back to the 10-12 range Of these teams, the Titans, Browns, Patriots, and Raiders are the only ones I think would consider WR.  The Raiders would prefer a QB, the Browns and Titans also could go QB if they end up that high.  I'm hoping if the Patriots end up above us, they go OL to protect Maye, that could come down to if they're able to find a good LT in free agency before the draft. But the Patriots does feel like fate as both Gronkowski and Bruschi are two of the best Wildcats of all times who then ended up Patriots legends.      
    • yeah Frazier was my dude. strong nasty, technical C. lots of playing time. but got a RB for a few games this year and 3 mnore years after. oh and signed a RB long term this year too. brooks got to be damn good for that to be worth it now. and while i think he can be a bellcow, it make investing in all the RBs vs other area an issue. we have one of the better lines atm. if it was frazier at C, my goodness we would be set for a long while. this year has a 2 OC im looking at Jake Majors , and Bryce Foster (massive, nasty streak, really want)
