Second Round Pick 2019, Elgton Jenkins OL

I know the game has changed and body types have changed. But this guy looks as much like an OT as a Center. I wouldn't be surprised if he's the starting LG on opening day. And I'll be interested to see if they thing he can play OT in the NFL.

Flanagan -> Tretter -> Jenkins

Is the circle of desperation.

Flanagan -> Tretter -> Taylor -> Jenkins

but is that a circle? And where is Marshmallow Outhouse in that 'circle'

Might not be a circle but its definitely a cycle.

Outhouse is the speed bump trying to disrupt the locus of protection around the origin (QB or Neo).

Did Lane Taylor play LT at one point?

i read and watched a thing where they were talking about how the guy is so good with his hands that he almost looks lazy

from what i saw in the short video, he seems to just engage his guy and stonewall him so the defender doesn't move off his spot

this lookes great for a center, but has anyone seen him actually on the move blocking? the video i watched says he can do it, but he just doesn't because he doesn't have to

that would be my only concern with the pick. if he can move and block the way he does, then we got a gem for the interior line

[Joemailman]

Some say he has strong hands, but that he's often late with his hands. Seems to me that requires a change in technique that can be coached. The balance he plays with should help in pass blocking. Will he be able to handle a good bull rush? Lining up against Clark and Daniels every day in practice should answer that question.

Couple more posts and Tank will be fawning over Ted's body of work.

Couple more seasons of Gutes putting us in Cap hell and trading away draft capital and we all will.

If he has superior hands and can lock onto a guy, he can probably engage in space. *I have watched zero video of Elgton the destroyer.

Some hit and a lot of miss in the fourth round. Savage needs to be a pro bowler/ten year starter for what they spent on him.

So far, after 2 offseasons, I give Gute an A.

Would be an A+, but Lefluer is an unknown.

I am still ticked McMillan wasn't a better safety. That looked like a sweet pick. Tretter was a great pick who was unlucky with injury early in his career.

I always preferred Tretter over Linsley because of his mobility on sweeps and screens. Linsley is a fine player and I'm not surprised MM preferred the Center who was more of a wrestler. I'll bet Tretter would be a better fit with what LaFleur wants to do though. Oh well.

I agree. Tretter is a perfect fit for what Lafleur does.

[Fritz]

Any predictions on what happens when Spriggs lines up against Gary in practice?

They will both get hurt. On the same play.

Tank is a moron, don't feed the troll.

You are the moron, punk.

The Fucking Center over the DK Metcalf. Fucking Center can’t block Fritz’s grandma while Metcalf has morphed into the next great Prima Donna rock catcher, just as I ingeniously pointed out to y’all back in ‘19.

We could have won it all with Metcalf in the Green and Musta Yella.
