One of Cables leftovers I am sure.FlyingGreg":3uz3rq20 said:Easy to see why he was a healthy scratch for a few games this season.
Another terrible draft pick.

1) People didn't give Ifedi chances. We were all ready to have him cut by the end of last year, even into Week 2 of this year. You have to be blind in order to have missed that. The hate was everywhere.
We give him chances now because he's improved under Solari.
2) Pocic is a second-year player with less than two years of actual playing time. You'll have to forgive us for following conventional wisdom that such players don't deserve the bust label yet.

Pocic’s free pass has officially expired.
I'm glad nobody put you in charge of the careers of Germain Ifedi or Justin Britt.
One game off the bench against one of the league's best defensive tackles. Of course he's going to struggle.

Pocic was beyond bad yesterday and he’s always been bad. He hasn’t shown that he’s physically capable of playing at an NFL level. I thought Chris Gray was his ceiling but it looks like that was too ambitious.
seabowl":373n4ad5 said:He is more of a center and Britt should have been the guard.
Mad Dog":ie24lr3b said:Are we really fussing about the 3rd string guard and that he's not good? Of course he's not good. If he was good then he'd be starting or at least backing up Fluker.
Pocic will likely end up being a decent backup at centre in the end. That seems to be where all this is headed. Probably why he was a centre in college.

Except he also had 11 starts last year when he was terrible (and the OL as a whole was terrible).
A-Dog":3kj4v1sx said:Coming out it was his experience (4-year starter in the SEC) and versatility that were his plusses. This was not a Sweezy/Fant long term conversion project.
A-Dog":3kj4v1sx said:Yes, he could pull a Britt and become a decent center in time, but he's far behind where Britt was at this point in Britt's career
A-Dog":3kj4v1sx said:Britt started every game his first two years.
A-Dog":3kj4v1sx said:Also, he's behind Britt and probably Hunt at center.
MontanaHawk05":30qyio2i said:Your opinions seem awfully impatient and black/white - that's all I'm saying.
A-Dog":1quhlkxh said:I do honestly think that Pocic has been arguably the worst performer out of anyone who has started on the O-Line the past couple of seasons, that he is contributing much less than was expected of him, and that it's unlikely he'll ever be more than a decent backup. I'd say it's 50/50 at best that he's on the roster at the start of next season.MontanaHawk05":1quhlkxh said:Your opinions seem awfully impatient and black/white - that's all I'm saying.
