Green Lightning Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 Ducasse - 16th rated OG in the League 12th vs Run Then the NFL has crap for OGs. I just don't get why McD won't try Groy at RG.
Saxum Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 All signs...except for the tape...and their entire NFL bodies of work. Well I guess you need to start your own scouting service and wait for the money to flow in it. A piece of advice: no not mortgage your house on new venture.

Saxum Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 Trade Miller to the Chargers. Do they have a spare DB?

A piece of advice: no not mortgage your house on new venture. Thanks for the snarky "advice". You'd have a fraction of a point in calling me out if (a) this were the first time I've looked at film and made an evaluation or (b) you had the gumption to make them yourself I don't expect you to know or care, but if you're going to call someone out for not knowing their stuff, it's worth taking a second and looking into whether or not your claim has merit (maybe take a look at the board during draft time). I'd also caution you against claiming some kind of high ground based on a single game, hot shot. I am, however, looking forward to seeing if Vlad can continue to improve, because I'd rather be wrong and win than be right and lose. Edited October 23, 2017 by thebandit27
Saxum Posted October 24, 2017 Posted October 24, 2017 Thanks for the snarky "advice". I started a GoFund for your agency kickoff. Only thing promised so far were some bottles I could return for deposit in right state.
thebandit27 Posted October 24, 2017 Posted October 24, 2017 I started a GoFund for your agency kickoff. Only thing promised so far were some bottles I could return for deposit in right state. I'd prefer you donate the money--I promise I don't need it. Since you've got all this spare time and interest in my scouting ability, go ahead and look through my post history...then feel free to come back and tell me whether you think I know what I'm talking about.
26CornerBlitz Posted October 24, 2017 Posted October 24, 2017 @Cover_1_ Ducasse's run blocking on gap runs was laughable. His man makes the tackle.
Sky Diver Posted October 24, 2017 Posted October 24, 2017 Had the big dummy got out there and blocked 58, Shady might have taken it to the house He ran into the back of his own teammate. Ugh. @Cover_1_ Ducasse's run blocking on gap runs was laughable. His man makes the tackle. He whiffed.
thebandit27 Posted October 24, 2017 Posted October 24, 2017 I just finished watching the game replay, and here are my thoughts on Vlad: He was much better this week overall--I'd even say he was passable at guard. When he makes solid contact with his initial push, he's fairly effective. https://twitter.com/Cover_1_/status/922599556734488583 His problem is that he's hit-or-miss in making contact, and when he doesn't, it's a shitshow. Great example here: https://twitter.com/Cover_1_/status/922615996229275653 He's also dreadful when he's cut-blocking on the backside in OZ (as well as when trying to locate while pulling). One thing I was impressed with was his patience in pass protection. He did a nice job of letting the interior rush come to him, though he really, really struggled to reset himself and often got pushed back into Tyrod's lap.

In the first clip, it looks like Woods messed up. Ducasse clipped his man and then went to the second level where he was stood up. In the second clip he completely whiffed which led to a tackle.

Yeah--the first clip was intended to serve as an example of him making solid initial contact, which is when he's at his best.
Buffalo_Stampede Posted October 24, 2017 Author Posted October 24, 2017 (edited) Seems like Ducasse has 5 or so embarrassing snaps a game and 60+ average snaps. Edited October 24, 2017 by TheTruthHurts
