How Texans can lift Deshaun Watson; Cowboys unlock potential

 

Former NFL player and scout Bucky Brooks knows the ins and outs of this league, providing keen insight in his notebook. The topics of this edition include:
 
-- How Eric Ebron is finally starting to live up to the billing.
 
3) Why Eric Ebron is breaking out in Year 5. In the NFL, one man's trash is another man's treasure. Coaches and scouts are always willing to give a former first-rounder a chance to revive his career, particularly when he was selected as a top-10 pick in a draft loaded with Pro Bowlers.
 
That's why I'm not surprised the Indianapolis Colts gave Eric Ebron an opportunity to carve out a role as a TE1 on an offense that desperately needed to put more playmakers around Andrew Luck. Now, I certainly didn't expect the fifth-year pro to be tied for the league lead in receiving touchdowns (6) after six weeks. After all, Ebron totaled 11 touchdowns during his four seasons with the Detroit Lions. Still, Ebron was universally viewed as a top-tier talent in the 2014 draft class with the kind of size (6-foot-4, 250 pounds at the NFL Scouting Combine), athleticism and playmaking potential to dominate as a flex tight end.
 
In Detroit, Ebron never quite developed into the difference maker Lions officials expected when he was selected ahead of the likes of Odell Beckham Jr., Aaron Donald, Ryan Shazier, Zack Martin, Taylor Lewan and C.J. Mosley. Part of Ebron's failures could be attributed to scheme and utilization, but the bulk of the blame belongs to the young player due to his immaturity, inconsistent hands and lack of discipline. Lions officials questioned his commitment to the game and wondered if he would ever get it as a pro. Moreover, they didn't think he could evolve from his role as a pass-catching tight end to the traditional "Y" position.

So according to McD...thebar at WR is so low they are literally looking for someone who can line up correctly. Smh. 

 

I think it's more than that.  It's also about knowing how to correctly run routes to maximize the effectiveness of the combinations that are schemed to create open receivers.

Coach Rick Venturi joined Grady & Big Joe to give his thoughts on the Colts' woes in New York last Sunday, and to help preview this Sunday's game at home against the Bills, and why despite their season-long issues at Quarterback, they have a stud running back and a legit defense that can cause the Colts some fits.

2018 NFL Offensive Line Rankings: All 32 teams' units after Week 6 | NFL Analysis | Pro Football Focus

 

It’s that time of the week again. If you’ve been following the series, you know we highlighted the top performers on each offensive line a week ago. Now, it’s time to flip to the other side of the coin and discuss the weak links on each line so far this season. Let’s get to the rankings.

 

OL-RANKS-768x433.png

 

10. IND-Colts-Header.png
With a hodgepodge of backups rolling through up front in Indianapolis, the results have been surprisingly good. Joe Haeg gets the dubious distinction of lowest-graded qualifying offensive lineman, though, as he held up alright flip-flopping from left to right tackle in Weeks 1 and 2 before getting destroyed by Brandon Graham on the right side for six pressures in Week 3.
 

30. BUF-Bills-Header.png

When you get benched for Russell Bodine, you know things have gone south. Ryan Groy was manhandled to 40.0 and 51.6 overall grades the first two weeks of the season at center before being replaced.
