Obviously, there are a lot of factors that play into our O-Line turn around.
The O-Line coach talked about the room's attitude when he got here and how they were "hanging their heads." His coaching has obviously worked. The buy-in from everyone in the unit has to happen for a turn around to occur. They have to be a unit to succeed and they have bought into it. But, of the factors, having a guy like Earl Grey who came in and basically gave everyone permission to unlease their inner pancake maker in the most henious way possible was the spark that started the flame. The turnaround of this group is amazing.....and has been stated: 1st year in league = Quinton Nelson, Braden Smith 3rd year in league = Ryan Kelly, Le'Raven Clark, Joe Haeg, Evan Boehm 4th year in league = Mark Glowinski 8th year in league = Anthony Castonzo It's not like Castonzo is washed up; many OTs play well into their early to mid 30s and Castonzo will only turn 31 in Aug 2019. We can expect that he has 2 - 4 good years left on him. Got to keep feeding that unit with mid round bodies to keep up the depth and let the creme rise to the top but, man, this is going to be a fun ride over the next decade. A great O-line makes all thing possible. In 2019, we gotta pay Glowinski to stay. He has found a home in Indy. Walk Worthy,

He's clearly the exception that proves the rule. I feel sorry for the next team that drafts a guard in the top 10 hoping they're getting the next Quenton Nelson.

Exactly, because you can't draft a player with the expectation that they'll play at an all-pro level from day one, but that's the level of impact a guard would need to have to make drafting them top 10 worth it. I said when he was drafted that Nelson would have to be the next John Hannah to be worth it. He appears to be well on his way.

Zack Martin was picked 16th, that's worked out well for the Cowboys. Beyond that guards seem to be picked 20 or later. |
