our oline has been looking great so far with these two preseason games . i think its even an upgrade over our 2015 line as well , kalil has been playing good , big dwill looking good and larsen and moton looking like solid back ups!. this is also without the leader of our offensive line ryan kalil once he plays our oline is going to be even better. looking forward to a great offensive season .

Khalil and Williams have looked very very solid against above average competition! Moton looks like a home run at this point albeit he's been playing significant time at guard, but that level of versatility can't be understated! As a whole we are averaging over 6 yards a carry right now, unheard of in the preseason for us, as even in our great years we typically have struggled on the ground during preseason.

I can't wait to see that YPC go up even more once we release the full repertoire of CMC plays. (insert Shula joke here)

Yea i think that's another fact lost in the excitement of just having football back is the vanilla playbook, lack of true gameplanning and the portion of the playbook we won't see until reg season. Preseason is the epipatmy of the cliche phrase "its not about the x's and the O's, but the johnnies and the joes"

    • Exactly. Exposes the whole defense. Dude thinks anyone can be Aaron Donald or something
    • While we're talking a fresh prospect that I happen to be a fan of, might as well get on a soapbox: Point 1 - He is not undersized by any means, his length is far above the mean His wingspan is in like the 85th percentile. An interesting note - his wingspan is 5 inches over Khalil Mack, 2 inches over Will Anderson's.  Only 1/2 inch away from the no-production yet size hyped 6'5 267 Shemar Stewart's. For comp - Ez's is around 83", arm length 34".  For NFL comp, the mean for wingspan is 80" and arms 33.5" at for starting EDGE defenders.  So it's not just my isolated comparisons. Point 2 - He isn't just a flashy "pass rush specialist" His film (and testing) shows elite quickness, hand work, and ability to play with the heads of OTs that normal prospects don't grasp. (see my prior post) Testing wise, one of the fastest 3-cones and short shuttles for an edge in years.  Fastest this year for both -- and those two drills are the ones teams look at for pass rushers, usually very indicative of success.  His quickness is off the charts. He's a guy that played well, showed well to those casually watching and those film-studying.  Then he goes out and tests well to back it up.  Apparently interviews super well.  So, I think it's all about his capacity/potential as a run defender.  That's really what it comes down to.  Can he be a 3-down guy or is he a specialist?  I see a 3-downer, his run defense is better than given credit for. A breakdown Ez vs. the NFL mean Arm Length: 34" vs. 33.5" (over) Wingspan: 83" vs. 80" (over) 3-Cone: 6.94 sec vs. 7.23 (WELL over, 95 percentile) Short Shuttle: 4.19 vs. 4.424 (over) Height: 6'2 1/2 vs. 6'3 (slight under) People look at the height a smidge under 6'3 and take that without considering the rest.   I think with Ez, it all comes down to what teams think his run defense upside is.  All it takes is one team - if they think he can become more that a passing down guy, then he could go high.  But if guys like Nik Bonitto and Haason Reddick can turn into these all-arounders, I don't see why this kid can't either who has higher pedigree and better measurables. Now, I prefer Graham, Walker inside, Will Johnson, Barron, and some others over him, but once we're in this tier outside of the top guys, I find the argument way more compelling for Ez over a Mykel Williams or Shemar Stewart.    
    • Well if we’re bringing this guy with character issues in for a visit why not consider Mike Green at 8!?
