Macdonald and Schneider at Senior Bowl

[Shane Falco]

I need Sam Howell to take over as I’ve been working on a phrase.

Can’t wait to scream “DAMN SAM” at my tv every Sunday.

I'm working on more of a tongue twister. It's "How the Hell Howell!" on Sundays.

Draft a PURE GUARD with the first pick! It's not rocket science, Schneider!

This. Like, 100% this.

Screw shiny for one draft. Bolster the O-line gatdamnit

 

[Northhawk]

While watching OL drills JS be like: “I bet these guys can play defensive line instead!”

Ah, the old reverse Cable strategy.

Ah, the old reverse Cable strategy.

JS, outsmarts the rest of the NFL, again!

How does JS continue to pull a fast one on us?!?!

So the only choice is Howell and Geno? Can’t draft a guy?

Draft a QBOTF, hold clipboard for Howell for a year.

 

[chris98251]

Howell, Howell, Howell, we want Howell.

Ok already here ya go !

 

[James in PA]

John Schneider, please watch. Thank you.

Hawkblogger said they followed the offensive linemen all over the field. I like.

Tyler Booker, Donovan Jackson, and Jonah Savaiinaea are probably the best three pure guards to be considered. The possibility of any of them making it to 18 is slim considering every team needs a pure guard.

There's a lot of tackles that can excel at guard in this draft. I wouldn't rule that out as insurance for Lucas. But Grey Zabel at the Senior Bowl has really turned heads and he can play all offensive line positions

 

[James in PA]

No converting! Natural position. Trade up if necessary. We always get too cute with this stuff and that's how we get burned.

Right, but I was only mentioning pure guards. As for Zabel I thought he’s looked okay. He definitely not gonna excel as a tackle in the NFL and there were some reps where he got bullied.

Guards rarely go top of the first round. Saying all top guard prospects will be gone by 18 is pessimism in the extreme.
Far more likely they could trade down and still get a very good guard if that's what they wanted to target with first pick.

 

[chris98251]

Tackles converting to Gaurds is pretty normal, due to footwork or arm length typically and size.

Umm, Olu was a 'pure or natural' center, and Bradford and Haynes were 'pure and natural' RG. "pureness" ain't the problem, poor scouting was. Until we fix the scouting, we shall repeat our errors, unless we got lucky, real lucky.

Your implying that they haven't been successful drafting o lineman. That's simply false.
Have they not paid guards much in the past? Yes, and when Cable was here they converted some D lineman to guard but this board has gone way overboard in claiming the ineptness of this front office in putting together a capable O line. Especially when you consider the cap space they spend on it.

OK, enjoy our oline.

Haynes looked bad in last years Senior Bowl too. He got pushed around a lot. Taking him in the 3rd was surprising consider there were better options on the board at Guard. I put that on John.

It’s a deep draft at OL this year. I am expecting DL with 1st pick and OL with pick #2
