Hex Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 OL is by far the biggest issue on offense currently. Zach isn't sustainable either but the OL is more of a weak link. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Becton was probably the highest rated OL out there today (which isn't saying much). Agree on Brown. He looks washed. Tomlinson is nearing Trumaine Johnson level... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonkertons Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Ironically, the biggest problem is Brown, who was considered one of the safest bets on this OL. So much so that Becton had ZERO chance of winning that LT job regardless of how good he looked in camp. At this rate, Becton will be back on the left side before long. Then either AVT bumps out to RT or Mitchell gets another shot. Not sure if they'd go to Turner ahead of him but I like Mitchell's upside more. But yeah, Brown has to be a lot better. Like....WAY better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DireJet Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Mike White put up numbers behind this same line sans their supposed best player: AVT. LaFleur schemed a bunch of it.

Saul Goodman Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Any posts that said there should be concerns about the offensive line were quickly shot down. Delusional to think these guys were going to gel into a competent unit. They literally can not block the defender in front of them. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk Not sure if this is a controversial take, but even if we got Broderick Jones, he wouldn't have seen the field yet. No way would they have started him over Brown yet. Probably not in week 1, and definitely not after a win and going up against Parsons. Steelers didn't even start him in their game. Not to mention he wasn't even available(really not looking to get into a Rodgers trade value debate either). Who was available at that spot? Cody Mauch? Is that who you preferred? We did take OL with our next two picks though, and then a LB after that, so overall not far off on your wish list. But yeah, let's chill with the whole "we should have drafted" stuff. It's two weeks in. The guy we're wishing we could replace right now - Duane Brown - was considered one of the positive OL pieces we had at the time of the draft. If anything people wanted a tackle to replace Becton, and he's been our best guy by far to this point. Let's let sh*t play out a bit. Rough game, but still just one loss. Tough defense. Let's let these guys continue to gel/gain some chemistry(didn't play as a full unit pretty much until right before week 1). Way too early to panic. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K_O_Brien Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 The o-line being so bad makes losing Rodgers easier to digest. Because even with #8, realistically we were never winning anything with that line. This is a reflection on Douglas as much as anyone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
