LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?
Last year to draft Pac 12 players.
Well. Shows what we know.
I swear to god, I can't help wondering if he did it just to fuck with us.
so we take a guy that nobody was talking about us being interested in
thats why the whole pre draft thing is a waste of time
should of traded down, bummer,
Jordan Morgan
Overview
Three-year starter who displayed his resilience and work ethic by coming back and playing good football after suffering a torn ACL late in the 2022 season. Morgan is both fluid and flexible in space, with the ability to help spring running plays with second-level blocks and play-side lead blocking. He fails to secure back-side cutoffs too frequently, but improving his pad level and landmarks might fix that issue. His punch approach diminishes his pass protection length and causes him to lose connection at the top of the rush. He will need to get his hands and feet synced up in order to improve his balance and consistency against athletic rushers. He’s a capable run blocker and pass protector, and he features projectable upside with more work. Morgan has the traits and talent to become a solid starting left tackle.
Strengths
Athletic in his lower half, with ability to redirect his weight in space.
Runs his hips under his hands on drive blocks and kick-outs.
Grip strength allows him to stay connected to run blocks longer.
Well-timed combo blocks feature patience and pop.
Effective jump-set helps eliminate rush plan and stall take-off.
Very good feel for the depth of the pocket.
Slide quickness to catch inside counters.
Can flip loose hips to aid in recovery when beaten.
Weaknesses
Long-armed defensive ends stab and separate from him against the run.
Below-average landmarks see him beaten across his face on cut-off blocks.
Needs to fire his hands with greater assertiveness and reset when necessary.
Inconsistent balance and body control through contact.
Tendency to stall feet during punch contact when opening side door.
Allows weight to creep too far outside in pass slides.

good, now bundle your 2 seconds to get back up to draft coop
so what is this guy
is he a guard? or a short armed left tackle?
do we now move tom to center, walker to RT and this guy at LT?
do we screw up our future LT by making him play RT now, then switch the 2 tackles in a season or 2?
This is a good pick. Could revive the talk of moving Tom to C eventually. Morgan may get the chance to challenge for RG position in 2024.

Morgan is a guard. He could pay at RT, but he'd only be as good as decent.
With the talk about Tom being a probowl center, I'm not too surprised they went OT. I'm also guessing they like Tom at center better than Barton.
Fire Murphy, Gute, MLF, Barry, Senavich, etc!
