Larz Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 when he knows who to block, and doesn't false start, he is very strong and does his job . his future is at OG. I hope I never see him play OT again. The word is out that he is dumb, the bengals d-line caused him to false start at least once that I saw by flinching his problems are all mental, physically he is very stout and powerful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looked like Vlad was pulling so he needed a good start. I don't blame him much for that. I think he had at least one other penalty. Maybe another false start.

Maxman Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 I keyed on him a lot during the game. Before the snap I said I was going to watch him the entire play. Overall I thought he did good. I am not sure about the penalties...I was a bit distracted by the rain. But he seems to be a much better option at guard as opposed to tackle. It was the Bengals though.

Chotobaka Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Vlad should never see time at tackle again. He was considered a developmental project at guard and just might be good there in time. I hope to God this the last we hear of trying to make him into a serviceable tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#27TheDominator Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Actually, I'd like to see him get more time at tackle. I'm not sure about right now. He might not be ready yet and he's certainly not ready to jump back and forth. I think his problems have been mental. He seems to be thinking and is slow to react. At tackle he might be slow to get to the outside, but it's still possible that he is the 3rd T on the team. Clifford didn't exactly impress. The interesting thing is I think they made a point that T is simpler than G in Callahan's blocking schemes. You'd think that suits him better, but who knows?

DMaynard Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 With Callahan working on him, he might be a real good replacement for Brandon at RG in about three or four more years. I'd like to see the Jets keep more of their draft picks going forward (and less trades) and develop guys like this. Most of the trades the jets have done have turned out well. But now they are loaded with a nice mix of young guys and vets. Let's stick to the draft with an occaisional FA going forward and the jets should be solid for many years.

slats Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 I find the nickname about 1Mx more annoying than funny. Ducasse was drafted as a project. Everyone knows this. There was no offseason program this year due to the lockout. This hurt Ducasse as much -if not more than- the rookies coming in this year. He needs a lot of coaching. He didn't know what a football even was until he was 16 years old. What he does have is god given physical size, strength, and athleticism. A lot of all three. With coaching and experience he's going to become a very good offensive lineman. When Wayne Hunter won the starting RT job, he said he was just keeping the spot warm for Ducasse. It's one thing when the coaches grease up a player (Rex saying VG is good), but it's quite another when other players do it - particularly your direct competition. This kid's gonna be alright.

Seems like he is a better fit for guard. The thing that I came away with that was very pleasing (and something I suspected ) was that he can definitely do what they ask of Turner, and probably do it very well. That is, checking in as a TE and just being a road grader in the run game...feel like he'll be just fine in those situations which is where the Jets really get their value in Turner.

I agree I think the guy is going to be a very good RT when it is all said and done. Don't think he is the brightest bulb on the tree, but as you said he didn't know what a foot ball was as a kid. I want to see more of him as a RT because he needs the reps. Just not when Sanchez is in. Don't think you'll see it this year much, but he certainly needs the work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfilippone Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 I'm curious if he was as horrible at RG next to Mangold, as he was last week. Decent Guard? or no? The key thing is that Sanchez was able to leave the field on his own two feet and not on a stretcher. I recall some people on here worried Ducasse would get Sanchez killed.

I think he stands too high when he is pulling he needs to lower his pad level and his pass blocking is suspect at best. Once he gets a hold of you your in trouble, but in the AFC with these talented 3-4 defenses we face it may be trouble If he can't figure out these blitz packages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TNJet Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 After watching the replay tonight on nfl network, Vlad DookAsse, aka Dookie a$$, Douche a$$, and Dicckass etc., did not play too badly. I think his future in the nfl is at G, because if he locks on and keeps his feet moving he could be a force in the future in the run game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
