It should go without saying that those 4 new addition easily trumps Cincinnati's. Kansas City did it with a big trade, a big- money free agent pickup and 2 great draft picks. Humphrey and Smith were great picks.. Their oline may be top 3 right now.. Dangerous team... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Dub Posted November 7, 2022 Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 "True Passing Sets" sounds like a great way to throw out any play that doesn't match their expectations. Volson on his back, arms & legs kicking like a turtle? We'll just skip that one, it wasn't a True pass. PFF is nothing if not creative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True passing sets is a legit metic...it takes out play action (where the OL SHOULD have an advantage) and only includes straight drop backs or shotgun passes (w/ no play action)...at least that's how I understand it.

I'd have to see his PFF rating (lol) when they don't take out those plays to judge. Does his score jump considerably? What does 97.3% Pass Blocking Efficiency even mean? If they can explain to me in simple terms how he is 3.7 away from perfect I will start taking PFF seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleEarl Posted November 7, 2022 Report Share Posted November 7, 2022 I'm no PFF fan, but I think it's safe to say that Volson is doing just fine. I'm not suggesting he's going to the Pro Bowl or anything, but for a fourth round pick starting as a rookie he gets an A+ from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, like Marvin always said, "I continue to see improvement every week". Volson is thriving with the OJT and Trial by Fire. Maybe the addition of Jonah Adanajii at OLT will help, too.

Better than average LTs are rarely available and if they are they cost a LOT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Is he serviceable? Yes That's the rub. Can we replace him without grossly overpaying another Collins/Cordy Glenn/etc type free agent that's really more of a side-grade? Doubtful. Can we replace him without giving up draft picks better spent addressing bigger needs elsewhere? Also doubtful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the best hope is that we can somehow find a Whiteworth type LT where we took Whit high in the 2nd and let him play G for a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, it's very incentive-heavy. Something like $100k per start. I should say that overpaying probably won't get us much improvement over him. The inconsistent effort is why he was available at a discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikeslumina Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 I still like volson from those preseason videos. Still long way to go knock on wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted December 6, 2022 Report Share Posted December 6, 2022 The team should find out if Adeniji or Prince have improved their pass blocking enough to succeed Williams. Jonah is under contract for 2023 so we're ok for a bit and can draft a project if need be. But he hasn't lived up to his draft status and doesn't deserve a raise over this 5th year option number.
