Great point!We get bad OL play - paying a premium
Might as well try another approach
Why? You are at the point you self hate your favorite team? YikesHe gave up one sack his whole college career at tackle. Maybe just maybe he was born to play the tackle position. I'd laugh my butt off if this guy goes to another team and becomes an pro bowl tackle.
Continuity … yet, they likely have 2-3 new starters. SMH McCarthy. Plus Martin and Smith likely gone by 2023
Jesus what an awful take.So, you think he's one of the two best G's in football at this point? That's what it means to be All Pro G.
Let's be clear, Quinten Nelson has the #1 spot when healthy. If he player RG, Martin would not have a shot at Pro Bowl.
If you just consider first team starters, that's 64 G's. You don't think he might really be like the 5th best starter at this point in his career? Now if you narrow it down to just RG, that does eliminate half the field & some of the better candidates. But it doesn't change the fact that he isn't the player he once was.
Martin arguably has the best season he's had since 2018 ??? (where is this signficant drop off ? He played better than both 2019 and 2020 in 2021 ?)It is really sad that anyone who supposedly watched this team last year thinks he was the best G in football.
He's on the All Pro team because he was HOF level early in his career & his name now gets him there.
- Nelson hasn't been healthy since 2019Let's be clear, Quinten Nelson has the #1 spot when healthy. If he player RG, Martin would not have a shot at Pro Bowl.
So, you are saying his play is on par with his early years?
All Pro is selected by the press. Oh, wait a minute. No one questions their knowledge or integrity.
Yes. I'm saying Martin is as dominant as ever.
His play has been declining & since the team is almost certainly not going anywhere the next few years it would be in the best interest of the team & the player to trade him now.
- Nelson hasn't been healthy since 2019
- Nelson plays in the AFC, him playing RG would literally have NOTHING to do with Martin making the NFC Pro bowl roster...... (do you even listen to yourself talk ? What are you talking about ?).
Martin is still solid, and overall still one of the better OGs in NFL , but yeh, he's not on the HOF dominant as many like to think he is now ..
I'd laugh, because they never gave him a chance to play the position he play in college. The guy wasn't 300 pounds or very strong. What made them think he'd be a good guard? I'd love to hear one of the Jones answer that question.Why? You are at the point you self hate your favorite team? Yikes
Then you are making me laugh. Not the way you intended .... but you still got there.
Rebuild is coming. Heard MM talk about how important continuity is with the OL. Both Tyron/Collins have struggled badly with availability. Tyron isn't on the chopping block yet cause there isn't a viable replacement on the roster yet.
Maybe you don't understand what declining means. Doesn't mean bad.Yeah but I'm making a guy laugh who thinks Zack Martin is a declining player. So...yeah.
