Rashawn Slater, Franchise LT - Discussion

[Bolt-O]

WFT has invested heavily in DL. No franchise QB tho. Did they really need Chase Young with what they have instead of a franchise qb in the 2020 draft? Time will tell but I think a lot of WFT fans are second guessing that one

It does come to that, when a player picked after has a great season. I remember wanting Tua over Justin, just on team production, and who knows where Tua was on the Chargers board, so at least for this season, Miami Fans are going to ask the same question.

Wait are you saying they could've had Herbert + Sweat whom is better than Chase? Damn son!!

0 sacks and 1 solo tackle vs our o-line. Some people in here were scared of Chase Young for nothing.

Not for nothing. He's good, and their front won plenty of battles. We out played and out coached them.

I wasn't too high on Slater initially. Glad to be wrong.

Really good game rook. Gotta be in the OROY discussions even without stats and stuff.

I was arguing here to draft him first pick, but wow, he blew away my expectations, playing so well in his first game against Chase and the rest of the WFT line. Stunning.

I’d agree but tackles never get considered for OROY. They are proven excellent by the lack of negative stats and the award is driven by positive stats. QB has the best chance, then usually a RB or WR in that order if there was no exceptional rookie QB

I am 100% thrilled to also have been wrong. I was tricked by the measurables memes

His brother got a 15 yard penalty on the exact same thing.

Didn't someone say Sewell looked great at LT?

Slater shut Young down. This is a carryover from college.

Slater is a stud, 10 yr starter at LT, TT got lucky Slater fell.

Very true but the one thing that all but Brady and Krieg have in common is they were mobile QB's.

I have gone over this a few times but QB's that run get sacked more that pocket QB's as a rule of thumb. Mobile QB's are great, as they make the ESPN highlight reel but they don't show you the 3-4 times a game the lineman ran the rusher right into the QB because he was not when he was supposed to be, yet they will blame it on the lineman.

The highest single season QB sacks. All of these QB's were considered mobile, Cunningham is the greatest running QB ever and Watson is considered a great runner as well.

Rank	Player	Season	Sack
1	David Carr	2002	76
2	Randall Cunningham	1986	72
3	David Carr	2005	68
4	Jon Kitna	2006	63
5	Steve Beuerlein	2000	62
	Ken O'Brien	1985	62
	Deshaun Watson	2018	62
8	Neil Lomax	1985	61
9	Randall Cunningham	1992	60

Deshaun Watson says hi !!!

Maybe they said that cuz he was absolute crap at RT in preseason, so i guess in comparison he looked better at LT.
Also as per their coach, he settled down as the game progressed. But at that point mercy rule was in tact cuz the SF was up like 38-10.
