Yep. This is usually when you tap out.

Seems the guy has zero strength and is always on his ass.....as stout as a wet noodle.

He's just shot.

Here's his own take on the surgery he got. He had surgery on both hips.

“The entire quality of life is better, so it’s pretty exciting,” Paradis told the media. “That surgery can be kind of a temperamental surgery. Not everyone that gets it, recovers."

And that was before breaking his leg last year.

I wish the jets would cut ryan and we could claim him. I mean why not at this point.

I agree...could certainly see a drop off LY when Larsen was in for R Khalil but paradis has been just killing us

We were better statistically in practically every offensive category with Larsen in vs. Kalil.

Yeah, it’s a funny thing I’ve noticed about this here game over the years: your whole offense tends to work better if your linemen actually get in defenders way and stay there longer than a hummingbird fart.

Insights.

I has them.

I'm actually looking at the staff who thought he among others are good enough for the role, smh!

This guy is straight trash and we should have rolled with Larsen at Center. Hard to tell but this is why you don't pay a guy coming off a major injury big money and that's on Hurney. Daley is a bigger dumpster fire. We tied up how much money in Palardis and Williams this year? BOTH COMING OFF MAJOR INJURIES!? Then we draft a LT that only Hurney considered first round talent only to protect the water cooler on the sidelines that can't stay healthy. Really think Palardis and Williams need to be cut. All that Center does is get bulled rushed, he's not strong at all.

that's why tanking for QB's never work. Prime exampled is Cleveland. Jesus, if Baker had pass protection they'd be who everyone thought they'd be. Look at the years Wilson struggled with a shitty line. Look at the Chargers this year. Hell the Jets and Giants. Gettleman had one thing right. IF you give Allen a line, he'd be mvp quality b/c he'd have the time to make decisions. If the edge rushers on sunday didn't have him surrounded, then it was being pushed back in his face by that paperweight center we have.

[Wolfpack352]

Paperweight?  Your being too kind.  He wouldn't make a worthy paperclip.

[SmokinwithWilly]

Can we just self hike and count to 2 Mississippi before the rush starts like when we were kids.

Not here to defend him, outside of about 2-3 games, hes played poorly.

I learned that for many FAs it takes them a full year to get adjusted to the new team/surrounding/system. Paradis has two prime traits to over-come his play, he is smart and hard working.

I think the biggest issue is lack of lower body strength due to the surgeries and broken leg. He really wasn't totally healed until training camp. He had no off-season strength program and it shows. Denver's offensive scheme used more technique than brute force so he would struggle at times against big agile nose tackles. Still he has all the potential to be fine next year after a full offseason strength program and full training camp/preseason. I said in the spring that he was an investment in the future and whatever we got this year was a bonus given his injuries. So maybe bonus was exactly the best choice of words but still I don't think you can look at this year and write him off. I actually would like to see Larsen but I think they want to keep building chemistry with Paradis.

Im not ready to call him a bust FA either, but he is not playing well. The bucs Vita is a run stuffer and in both games he just pushed Paradis back at will. That altitude effects the big guys the most at denver. Ive heard form sound people in the lifting scene around Charlotte, he puts in the time. Gross said it perfect- "Oline is losing slow". Currently Paradis is losing fast.

No lie, I was more than ready to let Larsen take the job. The level in play between Larsen and Kalil, showed Larsen as an equal if not sightly better. He was already signed for cheap too. I do remember him in pre-season tho and he was doing the Paradis..... Form reports panthers viewed Larsen as a backup(i dont know why). GVR can play C, if only the whole O-line was healthy.
