"Offensive Line

The riser of the week will be Troy T Antonio Garcia. Mark it down. There are so few prospects with his combination of athleticism in pass protection and tenacity in the running game. Add on his height, length and tape against Clemson, and you get a really intriguing prospect. Who knows, maybe his week doesn't live up to my expectations, but I would be surprised if the South edge rushers give him issues in practice. He might leave as the top ranked offensive tackle, or this whole section could blow up in my face.&  #8232;

The offensive line talent does not end there at the Senior Bowl. Forrest Lamp, who practically shut down Alabama from his spot at left tackle, should have a great week. Don’t be so quick to move him away from tackle to guard despite his arm measurements. His base, hands and balance allow him to stay on the outside. Adam Bisnowaty has a wide base and wins with position. He does, however, extend and bend too much against rushers on the edge, which might lend itself to a move to guard. Dan Feeney wants to wrestle with interior defensive linemen, and frequently wins that battle. Kutztown’s Jordan Morgan is listed as a guard but played at left tackle. I’m amped for his week and he could open eyes with his powerful blocking. This is a really, really good group, especially in comparison to the edge rushers and interior defensive linemen this week."

3) Sounds hyperbolic but the 3 TEs on the South (Howard, Engram, Everett) might be the most talented position group I've ever seen in Mobile

4) There is a logjam of SR OTs (Garcia, Bisnowaty, Banner, Dawkins, etc) jockeying for spots in the 2nd-4th rnds. SR Bowl will help separate

1) Long chat w/ a NFL scout today in Mobile. His opinion: "If Myles Garrett isn't a Cleveland Brown, I'll be floored. Can't overthink it

5) I've been talking up #YSU DE/OLB Derek Rivers for a reason and I think we'll see that this week. Disruptive. Can bend. Legit top-100 guy.

2) That same scout answered #LSU CB Tre'Davious White when I asked who the best player in Mobile was. "Great kid. Instinctive and tough."

you have a program??

Seriously.. you are a tremendous resource of information !!!!

No great revelations from Jordan Raanan... Â

That’s Gold, Jerry : 1/24/2017 9:58 am : link

any monitoring of this site would indicate the Giants have ignored TE and RB for years. But, more to the point, don't care if you are Jim Brown, if you have no holes to run through then it is going to be difficult. Upgrade the OL first...that is the single most important thing this off season.

As noted by Bob Papa and Solomon Wilcots on Sirius NFL Radio this morning, the two Diva WRs who were distractions to their teams, Antonio Brown and Odell Beckham, did not show up in the big game. Odell needs to grow up...4th year now and I wouldn't give him any big money until he shows he has grown up.
