Looks like we may have found our Left Tackle. If so that is a nice pick up

I'm curious how much he'll weigh at camp after an off-season with some vets. He's like right at 300lbs. on a 6'6 frame, so he's got room to bulk up without losing his agility.

The thing to remember about Raimann is that he has only played offensive tackle at this point for three seasons...two in college and one in the NFL. His performance is nothing less than incredible given how limited in experience he is. I hope he progresses. It would be nice to have hit on a lower round solution to a critically important position. Not all quality starters in the NFL have to come from only the 1st or 2nd rounds of the draft. |

We beat the Chiefs, and lost to the Eagles by one point ...... somewhere in there is a bona-fide contender, buried by late-game failures and an offensive line which has done a complete about-face since the 2020 Wildcard playoff game in which a 39 year-old, immobile Philip Rivers went the entire game literally untouched by the Buffalo Bills' pass-rush. o

The point is that even Watt was getting his ass kicked in the weight room by some vets and he transformed himself into a monster. If Raimann can continue to handle the mental part, he's got similar physical potential. It's the minutiae that isn't sexy to talk about. But you could go back and break things down and see that all of the "full rebuild" and "this team is nowhere close" talk is largely nonsense. There's a reason why this team was the scary team in the league for a while last year. And there's a reason why virtually everyone (not just us fans blinded by bias) expected pretty big things from the team this past season. Shit didn't work out and we have issues to fix... but a lot of those good things are still here or are coming back. |

This is something Ballard has failed to do and not just at OT (DE, WR, etc.). |

And now, both of those teams are in the Super Bowl. This team has talent ...... but having talent and actually putting that talent into productive use for wins on the field are not the same animal. o
