If youre hoping the team amd franchise exceeds expectations, and makes a run at the division title and playoff spot, we need to make a trade for an impactful DT.
As much as Alim has been talked about, he disapointed me. I actually would like him to lose more weight so he can play with better technique.
He is highly athletic but doesnt play like it. If Alim wanted to he could be similar to Aaron Donald. But he doesnt seem to want it. He played with terrible technique in the 1st pre-season game.
Im not relying on Levi.
Brockers is washed.
I see laziness at the DT position.
We need a legit, athletic, strong DT force that plays with quickness, knee bend, levarage, and can move laterally well.
If Larry Ogunjobi was healthy…he may do…
Id make a trade now.
Also…on OL take note of Frank “stand straight up” Ragnow
Ragnow like to hold too.
I wouldnt pay Ragnow. He is lazy. Straight legs Ragnow.
Bend knees, back straight, punch and lock out arms…
Im not impressed by the slop ive seen.
But let the local media and Hard Knocks make you guys “rocked up”…
Professional atheletes…playing with sloppy technique.
2nd year player trying to become a household name…
Dont look good to me
He should be ripped like Aaron Donald. Instead he has baby fat still.
Sorry…school is not a deterrant anymore for him.
He should be a ripped brick house like Donald.
I was an advocate for both Alim and Levi…but im willing to admit maybe i was wrong (however i dont know these players personalities and how hard they work…so…i am at a disadvantage there as i dont have all the facts and intel on the human)…
Wait, what? Aaron Donald is a 6 foot 290lb man with a six pack. That’s just freaky. He’s got crazy ass genes. Go look at HS footage of Alim. It’s just how he carries his weight. He’s a good player. It will be fine. It was one drive of a preseason game.
Depends what you mean. You are absolutely entitled to your opinion. I’m also entitled to think Donald is a trash comparison and preseason NFL doesn’t mean much of anything.
Alim is a talented kid. He will play all of 2023 at a mere 22 years old. I’m hopeful that he has substantial remaining upside and he’s not all that bad as of now.
But you’re completely disregarding that for a 21 year old he loked solid last year. So College Junior age and a confident NT with dome extra athleticism. Alim is the leash of my worries.
My number 1 worry by far?
OL depth
If we’re healthy our offense has a chance to be top 7-8. 50 total offensive TD kind of offenses.
, that is the front office saying, “Hey Jared,…”
