I'm nervous to see this new Oline group bs the Jets but if they work out and turn into a solid group then good golly miss molly we are going to have a very good Oline for years to come. All Hail Jason Garrett.

Im excited to see it.

It's gotta be better than last year.

Having a young athletic O Line with our skill players makes a lot of sense.

for those that praise the drafting of Nagy and Arkin, you have to wonder what they were looking at when they drafted Brewster and Young.
both were 40+ game starters, they were thinking all that game experience=ready to play quickly...they were wrong

Ive always liked OL from Wisconsin. something about Wisconsin lineman that really make them successful. I have no stats to back this up nor proof by link.....but for some reason It seems to me that Wisconsin lineman, whether high draft picks, late round picks or Free Agent pick ups.....seem to be really good, at least starting NFL lineman.

Am I crazy or is there some truth to that. anyone have any stats or proof to this?

This is just anecdotal, but Wisconsin linemen are usually the only players from here that see any success in the NFL...

...Up till a few years ago, we had Al Johnson as a center, and he was a Wisconsin O-lineman, but he was a dissapointment for us.

this is true, he was indeed a disappointment.

There were rumors that the O Line coach at Wisconsin was not a big fan of his after the moped thing. Yeah it was dumb but to treat the kid like he did afterwards, basically hurting his chances at being drafted, really sucks. POS.

Laugh at the part where the scouting report talked about lack of bulk (he weighs 318) and strength problems. I wonder if that scout was a friend of the coach.

That jumped out at me too. How do you call a 318lb a player who lacks bulk? :huh:
I don't think he weighed 318 in college, might of bulked up for the combine. But he didn't hold on to the weight since he was rechecked at the start of training camp and weighed 299.

good info, the thing that stood out to me was the suggestion that his coach had a problem with him and i know from experience that just kills your shot at anything no matter how hard you work.

the fact that he will be starting for us tells me there may be something to this and while it may have sucked for him it may work out very well for the team. if he pans out major kudos will be deserved for our scouting department for this one


Badgers head coach is a notorious tool...although I do have to admire the fact he bagged Erin Andrews ..:bow: :laugh2:
