In the NFL the top of the draft will always be skilled guys mostly, and that is because there is a plethora of line talent available. The exception to the rule mostly being blindside OT which are coveted guys. Blind side isn’t what it used to be in the nfl. Both tackle spots are pretty close in terms of importance now. Skill talent will always dominate, which is why when a trench guy is in the top 5 they are generally a lock. Bigblue204 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted December 21, 2023 Report Share Posted December 21, 2023 yeah the onus now isnt as extreme now with a LT....it's still important...both ae...but games has changed where the QB doesn't need that super elite LT now Piggy 1 and wbbfan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no cap on PR time anymore so even if he loses a step he'll have a job in the NFL until he's done. Yea...he is a cut above fringe NFL roster guy. He is at worst productive backup. He will have a job until he loses a step. 26 minutes ago, wbbfan said: Blind side isn’t what it used to be in the nfl. Both tackle spots are pretty close in terms of importance now.

The occasional trench guy that goes top 5 it's because they view him a generational talent at his position. 22 minutes ago, Booch said: yeah the onus now isnt as extreme now with a LT....it's still important...both ae...but games has changed where the QB doesn't need that super elite LT now True.

It's a supply and demand thing. Lots of OL and DL available each year. Then you take the CFL and if we have 8 good OL available it's probably how the draft will shake out 1-8. Actually...maybe not...Saskatchewan probably does not draft one because O'Day is stupid. Edited December 21, 2023 by GCn20 wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually...maybe not...Saskatchewan probably does not draft one because O'Day is stupid. I think the thing for the nfl is the ol talent especially at T isn’t where they need it to be. You can get a beast pass rusher in the first 2-3 rounds reliably or a run stopper in one tech or another. You can spend late picks on super athletes who are raw. Because dl gets money and attention. The kids want to play dl instead of being an ol. The ol out of the top 2 rounds (draft year depending of course) aren’t nearly as good a prospect as the late 3rd and down pass rushers. And because ol just don’t get rotated it’s hard to be a specialist and succeed as an ol. Maybe as a beast run blocker on a heavy run team they’ll prop you up in pass pro but it’s not the same as a 50% of snaps de who just pins his ears back. I think that’s why we continue to see more Canadian ol prospects rise in value down south. Those kids have been ol their whole career, aren’t failed dl, and they are the best big athletes in the sport/market. Up here the outliers like gray are immediately looked at as ol. Down south hed as been a dl for sure. GCn20 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead, we play Cover Zero & blitz on the goal line. Great strategy by an over the hill DC. Enough blame to go around- special teams, roster management, and sub-par offence and defence. Even Walters did not bring in any outstanding players this past season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booch Posted December 23, 2023 Report Share Posted December 23, 2023 9 hours ago, wbbfan said: It’s an odd time of year for work outs. No real chance of that leading to a gig this year. Lots of fringe guys looking for camp invites not the possibility of getting hurt for no pay. I feel like this stage of the cfl window is often now cfl vs cfl work outs. With some guys doing little more than providing bodies. True too. And the nfl will ways take shots on big smooth WRs. And KSB is not a smooth receiver...or even an adequate route runner...he's getting a look based on exact same thing as Lenius...body type...and that's it...
