2021 Pro Day Predictions and Discussion

[21&500]

Okay, so I'm thinking draft Little or Slater @#13, and Cosmi @#47...this is our best chance to rebuild our line. Good OT's don't grow on trees. Can't count on Bulaga to be healthy the whole year. Grab a corner in round 3, and Edge with our other 3rd round pick...

Yup.
anything he gives us we should consider “extra”
hes here because of his contract mainly, so the best approach is to assume you’ll need a RT and LT.
maybe Bulaga can be the veteran swing?
maybe RG as he looses athleticism?

Another reason to sign Matt Feiler in FA. Immediate fix at RG with the potential to slide to RT.

I still haven’t given up on Pipkins. He’s going to get another off-season of coaching.
We also have Storm Norton. He played pretty well and will get the same coaching up this off-season.

We can use the draft capital to address other needs with an impact player in round 2.

I could have swore those two guys got beat like a rented mule last year. Who played pretty well?

I agree about Feiler. He actually has moved ahead of Linsley in terms of OL priorities in free agency. I think his versatility of playing both RG and RT could be beneficial.

Now again, if the Chargers get Linsley - will be very happy. But he is going to very popular dude tomorrow when you can talk to players/agents.

Storm played pretty well. He had a rough first outing but after that played at an above average level allowing only 1 sack, a handful of pressures in his 300+ snaps.. He should be a good depth piece

Why ORG for Feiler? Didn’t he play mostly OLG and ORT for Pitt?

Well left guard than - either way. The versatility of being able to move to RT the next year if Bulaga has the same 2021 and 2020 - will make that more seamlee

Hell both Feiler and Linsley - bring it! LFG!!!

To me Bulaga isn’t promised anything, he’s here because because of cap strategy, so Feiler straight to RT works for me, Bulaga can be traded or swing.

I wouldn’t close the curtains on Bulaga quite yet. He’s our more experienced lineman and he’s not the type of player to “mail it in” just because he’s under contract. Let him compete and try to stay healthy. If he can’t hack, then send him to the pine.

i think LAC has the depth as backups (if storm, if tevi, if st. louis, etc) but they could use more quality in starters. one below avg starter is normal. 2-3 below avg and your line will suffer.

i still think tevi could be an avg-above avg guard.

as far as the draft, saints, packers look to draft guards who can hold ground AND play center (flex). trey hill, Meinerz. green, mccallum dickerson (great talent just so sad about inj history)

So kick Sam inside just like Fluke? Might work...plus Tevi can still back up at T...

[Boltgang74]

Just as long as Tevi aint our starting LT again.
