part of the reason paradis looks so bad is being surrounded by flaming garbage on either side.

if we suddenly had even adequate LG play and a serviceable tackle we could scheme around RG and the line would be 1000% improved.

I'm not as certain about this. Most of his worst moments come from just getting forklifted into Darnold's lap on a one on one bullrush. It just doesn't seem like he regained his physical strength after that hip injury.

Can't deny that he's had garbage flanking him on either side since he got here, but he is constantly getting destroyed 1 on 1. Ryan Kalil had all kinds of caliber guards around him during his career and never looked this lost/got beat this consistently as Paradis

Cam Erving and Ereck Flowers both came out together in the same draft. They were two of the most pure left tackles I saw to come out in a long time. I thought they both were some of the safest picks with little to no bust potential. I was dead wrong. The Browns drafted Erving as a center and he didn’t played too bad. KC played him mostly at guard. Cowboys injuries derailed their season last year and had to use Erving at LT. Six years later in Erving’s NFL career and only 13 starts at either tackle positions, he gets a LT contract from Matt Rhule. Smh

They should hire me as a consultant for oline drafts

Maybe they should. 

But should they trust a new scout or decision maker to do the first round pick their first year at the position before they have a proven record. 

 

 

 

Anyway, I wouldn't mind a first round pick on OL. Or trade back and throw a few picks on OL.

    • He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc. 
    • The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position. 
    • Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
