We Have SOME Clarification On The OL?

[JayNM]

What is really sad is that if we had a pair of solid G, it would be easy to defend Wilson's transition to Center, and suddenly we would feel so much better at the OL

But alas, we don't

Kudos to Campbell for also making me forget about his 1st week pre-season perfomance, even if it was against putrid opposition

 

[Thelonious]

fair enough

I'd love to be wrong.

 

[Uptown]

Pretty much…Until Wilson returns..

Black hole is a little rough, I'd say.

They've rolled out a representative NFL offensive line the last couple of weeks.

I agree…LG is fine when Wilson returns, but Bradberry is god awful; especially in pass protection. Brown may suffice at C…

Can we start projections of OL

Campbell, wilson, bradberry,onwenu,Moses

Lowe, Sow ( swing guard) , brown , Bryant

If strange can play center then he might replace brown .

Wallace , robinson - Cut

 

[Wozzy]

Bradbury didn’t give up a sack, what are we talking about?

The second interior line of Strange, Wilson and Sow also played great. There’s plenty of time to fix the mental errors.

This is true. Campbell should completely dominate the Viking's backups and he did. So that is a positive day.

Much better than the 4 black holes we had most of last year.

 

[One-If-By-Sea]

If strange can play center then he might replace brown

Let's hope.

Wallace , robinson - Cut

Let's hope.

Some would say 5.

 

[One-If-By-Sea]

Some would say 5.

I agree. Onwenu is OK, not great, not a RT, and not worth $19M.

I would add Strange to your nine. I could also see either of Sow and Strange replaced by an addition from another team.

 

[captain stone]

If our Ol is better than average, we are competing to be long into the playoffs and a top contender for the division.

Not with these WRs.

Wilson never left; he played a bunch yesterday at both LG and Center, his best position here for now.

He took snaps at Center yesterday, so they're giving it some thought...

Perhaps, perhaps not.

No matter the plans, Wilson should be getting reps at LG and C, whether he is considered to be capable of starting in either place. Perhaps, he is at the top of the depth chart at LG, at C, both or neither. Wilson could be considered by staff as a potential starter at either spot with a decision to be made with regard to the name of the other starter.

I'd prefer that he just concentrate at Center. Not sure that he would be that much of an improvement at LG right now than either Strange69 or the Sow; maybe by this time next year when he's more acclimated to everything...

Let the record say that Ian’s article on the team mentions the phrase “question mark” repeatedly about the interior OL. And it’s Aug 21. Very Jets-like.

Let me clarify at LG: Sidy Sow>Cole Strange>Ben Brown.

Let’s right the ship.

Put Sidy Sow at LG, his best position. Let center be an open competition. Bradbury can’t pass block well. Ben Brown can’t run block well. So Strange or Wilson should be the starter at center.

My crystal ball: Campbell-Sow-Wilson-Onwenu-Grandpa Go DowntoIR Moses
