Offensive Line

1st round Centers are beneficiaries in that sense, because the options and tags work for OL as a whole, and C are least paid. So, the tag/5th year option for the C is the same as for OT, even though they are worth a lot less on open market. So, Ravens did the right thing not to pick up the option. They will try very hard to get an extension. I do hope they fail and we will get make a play for him.

 

That's my best scenario. If they really are going QB in the draft it would be a bad idea to also have a rookie center.

 

Tell you, if you I were Cook, I'd be looking into conspiracy theories or something. It's as if the ENTIRE offense decided to take a day off on purpose to ruin his debut.

 

They showed ZERO faith in Cook today. Turtled early. Removed the running game from the kid's arsenal. Never used Breece once in space. Telegraphed every run, Engstrand figured without Tyrod, he might as well keep it simple for Cook. Almost as if he got his game plan from Dollar General.

Cook never stood a chance today. Undone by his own offense.....

 

For everyone who is pounding the tabke for a center why not AVT?

 

Undrafted free agent rookie. Any suboptimal outcome is on the coaching staff and no one else.

 

I’ll summarize the debacle I just observed as follows. The entire offense was pitiful and let a rookie on his very first outing down by three touchdowns down big time, starting with the OL. The defense was non existent and simply dreadful almost across the board. Our LBs are a joke. Our CS gets a massive F. How ironic that the biggest superstar is the one and only recipient of Glenn’s accountability punishment. I expect a change at DC for starters.
We are so eager to find a newQB in the draft but it will be futile without a massive upgrade defensively.
Brady was the least of our problems today.

 

The OL played like shite today. I was hoping for a decent rushing game but they couldn't do anything well today.
