Froholdt is a converted defensive lineman who is still learning the position. He played G/C in college. Typical NEP offensive linemen. Involved in a complex system which at one point he was making ID's & calls on the line. Really good getting & working in space. Easily one of his best strengths. Looks lile an athlete running around. Footwork is always on point. Very rarely off balance, out of place. Pretty good hands, could improve his timing & placement some. Definitely has to get stronger. Short arms kill him so he could be in a phone booth a lot so added strength is a must. Would like to see him get more aggressive overall tbh.Anyone have a scouting report on the two injured OL we drafted?

Not the best example of a “bust” in my opinion. The guy has had close to 1,000 yard seasons in both of his years played, and scored 5 touchdowns in the postseason during the SB winning 2018 campaign.He's still a bust. Not much vision, doesn't create anything. But i'll concede the line has been horrific at times.
I think the terrible draft class of 2017 is a bigger issue than the 2019 selections, and I think the lack of any young talent caught up to them a bit this year.This statement...is just... frustrating to say the least. 42 y/o QB... plenty of clear holes. Bill drafts almost an entire red shirt class.
Oh, and I agree - Sony’s looking up. Really hope he works his ass off on pass-catching in the offseason.
Considering they only had 4 picks and the 2017 #1 was Cooks which became 2018 Wynn it had a low chance of being a bumper crop of young talent. Draft is about at bats and they had very fewI think the terrible draft class of 2017 is a bigger issue than the 2019 selections, and I think the lack of any young talent caught up to them a bit this year.
Guys like Harry, Harris, Williams, Froholdt, and Cajuste should be able to contribute much more in 2020. It was an unfortunate draft due to injuries, but there’s no excuse for 2017.
I had spent the last two months getting increasingly bitter that we went for Sony over Chubb who is probably my 2nd favorite back in the NFL after Henry.
But I gotta say - Sony has been running much better. He's not a guy who is going to create on his own so he needs an OL and a leadblocker but he's been doing much better work and has been a lot harder to take down.
I'm still undecided if he was a good 1st round pick or not and I'm leaning towards not but I still gotta say he has proven to be a lot harder to take down the last 3 or so games.
The only pick who panned out worth a damn was Detrich Wise, and he’s probably in his last year because he’s not very good at all. Enough said for me. No excuse for that kind of draft.Considering they only had 4 picks and the 2017 #1 was Cooks which became 2018 Wynn it had a low chance of being a bumper crop of young talent.

The fact they got Wise to be a rotational DE was a miracle in itself.
Thats fine but hitting on 25% of the picks is league average.The only pick who panned out worth a damn was Detrich Wise, and he’s probably in his last year because he’s not very good at all. Enough said for me. No excuse for that kind of draft.
