Who gets the starting LG spot? - StickierBuns - 03-11-2025
This is in stone: Darrisaw- X - Kelly-Fries-O'Neill. IMO, Brandel showed his ass as the season went on. God forgive me, but.....I'd like to see Ingram get another shot. He's so f-ing athletic and strong. Very good in the run game. Pass protect is so bad though. If he somehow figured that out, it would be a KILLER line.

But, we can't afford Ingram stepping back all over our quarterback's feet either...He needs to fix that foremost...

I think it will be Jurgens. The team is evidently high on him. With the rest of the very porous holes filled on the line...maybe he steps in and plays LG for the team for many years to come. 6' 5", 311 lbs so he's not going to get pushed around

Brandel was playing very good ball until Darrisaw went out. I’m thinking he’s penciled in at the moment.

The team is high on this kid, I hope you are right. He's built like a square box.

Might be a draft pick. We've filled enough of our needs that we could draft an IOL with our top pick.

Wondering what Darrisaw's timeline is - Anyone see anything lately, all I saw was rehab pics

We certainly could, but that's investing a LOT into the OL. I think Brandel will play better with Darrisaw and Kelly next to him.
One position no one is talking about is safety. We lost Bynum and haven't really replaced him. Even if Harry comes back, he's 36.

Depending on what Harry does, Justin Reid perhaps…!?
Or Draft the athletic S Nick Emmanwori.
