It's funny that he's exactly as he was billed to be. Terrific pass blocker, horrible run blocker. But if given a choice, I'll take the pass blocker.

Good in locker room, decent to solid starter, plays with an edge,  whats not to like?

Like I said in another thread, my "Boone Radar" was going off big-time with this guy...

But he's authentic and plays hard, an improvement for statuesque QB's like Cousins. 

I think they signed him to a 1 year? We'll see if they reach a longer-term deal this off-season.

He is the kind of guy you want in your locker room and he's very solid on the football field. Happy to have him on the team and looking forward to Darrisaw coming back and them continuing to gain continuity on the left side. I think it's a duo that compliments each other very well

Yup.  Until he got on the field and played like he talked.

I don't get the Boone comparisons. Always seemed legitimately grateful and happy to be doing what he's doing. Love me some Risner. He's a genuine dude.

Risner is a very good LG too; Boone, not so much.

Read a story yesterday on Ezra Cleveland. Said he was surprised and a little bummed being traded. He's a backup in Jacksonville currently.

Advocated for Risner after his initial visit months ago.  Of course, I wanted him to replace Ingram :)  We are a pass first team so get a better pass protector for a 35 year old none scrambler in Kirk at that time.  Now with a mobile Dobbs we will see what a QB who can escape pressure can do.  Also, Hall is mobile and really want to see more from him before the year is out so we really know what we are doing coming draft time.  Meaning clarity at the QB position.

Jaguars have a really good OL, mostly 1st and 2nd rounders. I think Ezra was brought in for depth/security considering their left guard was out with a knee injury at the time of the trade.

I love his attitude. You can look past a lot when the guy has the right attitude.
