  1. We need to stop the Kendrick Green experiment, no matter what position he plays, he sucks

  4. Daniels has plenty of good tape through his career so far, I highly doubt this is anything more than a temporary dip in performance for him. Out of all the struggling guys on the line, he’s the most likely to turn it around.

    Kendrick seems to need another go round with fundamentals/basics of OL play. Plays with zero balance, too easy to manipulate.

    Dan Moore struggled to turn speed rushers around the corner and also struggled a few times to anchor against the bullrush. Every kind of rush seemed to beat him. Real rough showing.

    I thought Mason Cole looked better than this PFF grade suggests. Pass pro is solid, run push didn’t look great, but I imagine ALOT of that is the poor play to his left and right. One man can only do so much.

    Dotson looks good against the pass, but a bit rough in the run game IMO. Still, he needs to be the guy at LG.

    Chuks, my man! No complaints worth bringing up, it’ll just be nitpicking bullshit lol.

  5. – Chuks gets a lot of hate but he’s the best lineman on the team period, and he’s always available.

    – Dotson’s talent should never have been in doubt. But I am not sure if he can stay healthy man. If he can, he absolutely should get that starting LG spot no question.

    – Kendrick Green man. He was used to being stronger than opposing lineman in CFB, but we’re in the NFL now and that’s not the case anymore. I’m really not confident in him.

    – Mason Cole is what was advertised when we signed him. He’s not going to flash but I think he’s done ok

    – Don’t know what’s up with James Daniels but I’m hoping he turns it around and this struggle is temporary. He should be the best lineman on our team but he’s playing like the worst. He needs to use this performance as a wakeup call before the season.

    – Dan Moore just looks lost when he’s playing against anyone with a hint of speed.

  7. It feels like green starting is punishment to Dotson even though they know he’s better lol.

  8. I don’t think I’ve ever seen grades in the 20’s before. God damn

    Chuks needs more respect from the fanbase

  10. I’ve always liked Chuks and I was one of the few on here to not complain about his new deal. Glad he’s proving me right instead of wrong. I was kinda worried about that.

    Daniels should be fine. I think Cole will be fine. Dotson hasn’t really proved much but he’s gotta be better than Green. Dan Moore was improving last year at LT but I don’t know what to do other than to try putting Chuks at his natural position and let Joe Haeg take over at RT.

  11. Honestly if Daniels can play to the level we were expecting I’d be more confident in our O-Line than I was coming into the season because Dotson and Cole are exceeding my expectations a little bit.

    If it can turn into something like:

    Moore – 50

    Dotson – 80

    Cole – 65

    Daniels – 80

    Chuks – 80

    That actually wouldn’t be a very bad group.

  12. Leglue should replace Moore. James Daniels I hope picks it up by the time the regular season comes around. Kendrick Green is just a terrible player and should be cut

  14. I was raving about James Daniels hoping we’d sign him, then got so excited when we did… this is what I deserve
