Love the content fellas! One positive critique: I would love to see the player graphic change as you talk about specific players / prospects in segments like this. I think it would be a nice little change that would add a lot to the detail of production 😅
I love your show, I had to watch old Daniel Jones games to realize he is a good quarterback, he just hasn't been given a fair chance. We need more linemen just like you say in bunches. 😊
Justin I have to say I'm becoming more and more impressed with your film evaluations you can tell you're putting effort into it and developing your skill set as an evaluator it's fun to watch well done great episode
I suspect Neal’s biggest issue was that he was playing hurt … both years he had ankle issues … I think he even had surgery this offseason. So new OL coach + fix ankles + better players around him= new and improved Evan Neal
Found this video literally seconds after I asked you who we could take on one of your shorts 😂😂I am now sub'd I thought I was already.. love your insight ..you know your stuff about lineman, Had to edit this so many times lol.. I agree we need to grab a lineman maybe one on both sides the ball.
This year since we don’t know yet if Bricillo can fix Neal (and we have Eleumunor) we’re almost definitely not drafting a T high…and a G pick before rd3 w/ so many other holes on the roster imo would be yet more asset allocation overkill at O-line despite justifiable fanbase PTSD at the position. WE ACTUALLY HAVE GOOD O-LINE COACHING NOW…we hope lol. A 3rd rd pick likely at G or a guy with G/T versatility this year at the earliest is cool and anyway Bricillo already has more assets to work with here than he ever did w Raiders just need to coach it up. Developmental T later rd is cool too.
It’s not just Neal, Pugh, Richburg, Flowers, etc etc etc. we have taken 6 OL in the first 2 rounds in the last 10 years, most in NFL & 3 in the top 10 most in NFL & we have the worst OL in the league. So it’s not just Neal.
Quick (dumb) question Bobby and Justin: what does a combo mean when talking about blocking? I hear y’all use this term a lot but I honestly don’t know what it is in reference to. Thank you for the great content!
I'm not Bobby or Justin, nor have a deep understanding of the game of football but I'm pretty sure a combo block is when it's a run play and 2 offensive lineman block one defensive lineman, then one of those offensive linemen comes off that block (leaving the other offensive lineman 1 on 1 with the defensive lineman) and goes to find a linebacker or safety or something to further open up a hole for the running back to run through. Bobby talks about it all the time on film reviews or OL reviews and stuff
Every mock I end up trading down for multiple top 100 picks This has enabled me to pick up two lineman while still getting a Keon Coleman, Polk or Leggette WR Think that's feasible? Or is the drop from Nabers/odunze to much?
I’d take Joe Alt, or whoever Schoen has rated higher then him in the 1st round because the offensive line has been such a crippling deficiency for almost 10 years now and has been the #1 reason why our offense has been so horrible. I understand we’ve dedicated plenty of draft capital and some high draft picks over the last 3-4 years towards the Oline but nevertheless the group needs to be fixed once and for all. And at this point, with the current QB we have, we need the Oline not just fixed but stacked enough that they possibly could look dominant and completely control the line of scrimmage. And if we get Alt or a different top tackle in the draft then it makes Evan Neal have to raise his game in order to play in any fashion. Whether it’s guard or first back up off the bench. Historically from what I’ve seen, you can win ball games and be a very good football team with a monster Oline and mediocre WRs as opposed to having a shit OLine and 1 great WR and a few complimentary pieces. Oline for Gettlemen and now Schoen has become what LBers were to Reese. These GMs get stuck for years and years and years allowing these entire positional groupings to be absolute holes on the field. With the pass rushers we once had and pretty good secondary pieces, Reese allowed that defense from becoming something truly special, when he routinely only had 1 legit LBer on the team for years. No more allowing your biggest weakness to be what defines you
I think they should go WR at 6. But, if they took an OL at 6 (or 10 if they trade back), they just MIGHT fix the OL once and for all, regardless of how Neal works out. OTs are like pass rushers. You can never have too many of them.
