Quentin Nelson film review video

That is football porn.

Here's another play where he just destroys the DL.

Just saw this and was going to post it myself ...looks good!

I would like to see some pass protection film ...I just remember one play where he didn't win the matchup (against Geno Atkins I think).

Bengals line is no joke tho, and all the more impressive.

Still dunno if a G was worth a 6th overall, but I really thought the interior OL was stout in the first game and def not the reason for the L.

Not a big Voch Lombardi fan. But good film nonetheless. I do agree that Wilkins should have pressed the hole on the first play.

He's doing his job well based on that film (though that's just highlights), but he's still not the level of impact player that you want from a top 10 pick. In the first play of that video, Jordan Wilkins erased all of Quenton Nelson's great work by not running between Braden Smith and Joe Haeg into the endzone, as an example.

So the running back picks the wrong hole and that proves you were right that the guard who did his job is not high enough level of impact player to merit a top 10 pick. I disagree with that logic.

No, that was an example of how his impact on the game can be completely erased through no fault of his own. That the above can consistently happen in any given game is the reason that the offensive guard position is not a valuable enough position on which to spend a top ten draft pick.

I understood what you meant. I disagree. I believe you could say the same about any player at any position on the team which in my opinion negates your argument. He may not end up being worth the 6th pick (there is almost no doubt in my mind barring injury, he will be.) but it won’t be because of mistakes other players make.

In general I agree that drafting guards in the top 10 is dumb.

That said, your point is stupid. The same argument can be made for taking a guard.

“If the qb can’t get the ball off then a wr is irrelevant”

“A great pass rusher is irrelevant if they can just run”

What sort of high level of impact can you reasonably expect from any top 10 pick in their first NFL start? And as far as this value equation, I can easily ask, did he prevent two sacks? Would one of those sacks ended Andrew Luck's season? Ah, then it must have been worth a 6th... It just doesn't make sense.

We picked him to do a job and he is doing it.

Textbook!

If Kelly doesn't blow his block that might have given him enough room to juke the safety and result in a huge play.
