Spriggs - even worse than we thought?

Very easily fixable. Just change his position on the official team roster to OLB, and he's a very positive addition to the team!

Spriggs is a player the team should look to upgrade from. Unless there was a financial reason not to, I'd bring him to camp to let him compete. They need to improve the level of competition though.

Wanted to compare Spriggs to Bahkiari just to get an idea of comparison. I found this article at PFF that says Bahk played 2900 pass blocking snaps and gave up 133 pressures. This puts Bahk at 1 in 22 plays, however it doesnt count holding penalties. Bahk doesnt get many of those, but he has some. Later it says he allows a pressure 3.8% of snaps, which doesnt seem to add up. But this isnt bad if Spriggs is 5%. Also, Bahk has the blind side and usually goes against the best pass rusher.

Am I missing something? I actually thought Spriggs looked decent in some of his outings this season.

The blind side does not usually go against the best pass rusher. Its just important because its the blind side. Sometimes its the best, often times teams scheme so the best is NOT going against the LT.

Let me just say that for all the times Aaron Jones has handled the football, he's never thrown an interception. Helluva QB.

...which should make us all appreciate what the Packers had in the combination of Clifton and Tauscher all the more. I remember an article early in their careers that quoted an opposing scout as saying something to the effect that having two young tackles like them meant all the Packers really needed was a couple fat guys to put between them.
