re: Grading our offense by position (Football)

quote:

---

Elliot Porter played a couple of downs, and looked ok. We had a lot of botched snaps when he was in the game

lol, so you say he played a couple of downs, which means 2. but then u say we had a lot of bitched snaos when he played. makes no fricking sense.


he played more than a couple of downs and even saw pt at gaurd, and we didnt have a lot of botched snaps.

Mettenberger was a little above average last year, but most ranters make him out to be worse than he was. He has all the talent in the world, and if he could put it all together under Cam he could be a top 5 QB. I think Rivers will be the guy if Mettenberger gets hurt; however, Jennings may or may not have his own little package ala: Blake Bell(OU), Tebow.

---

Another thing about mett that the rantards so quickly leave of; the drops. It was an abysmal about of drops. I agree with your QB ranking. He had a good year for a first time starter in the defense conference.

RB is always one of the strongest spots on Les Miles football teams. Only thing keeping it from being an A+ is Hill may be suspended, Blue is still unproven and coming back from an injury, Hilliard didn't look all that last year, and Magee only has a handful of carries.

---

Agree. A possibly A+ with a legit passing game. And if you know as much as I think you know about les miles' team's, there is always an dark horse RB that emerges.

We have so much talent coming back, and they are a dynamic group. If we can cure the dropitis, a big part of Metts issue, and get the ball in their hands it will be exciting. The addition of Q. Leslie is a big one, he brings us the physicality and ability to win jump balls to the team.

---

Agree. We've got major talent at the WR position. The drops were horrible and there's not a doubt in my mind that they aren't focusing on catching the ball in the offseason. These guys can catch. They just need to brush up in some minor fundamentals. They're as talented as they come as a whole.

We have a solid group coming back, but very little experience. I think Stokes and Smith's ability at getting up the seams, along with Dickson's versatility, and Gordon's size could make a nice rotation.

---

I think whoever has the best run block/receiving skill set will start. I believe cam will bring us back to receiving TE's.

We lack experience here, and it seems to be the reason we moved Collins back to LT. The only person who has had significant playing time at Tackle is Alexander.

---

I'd give this OG ill give an A- to B+. Collins and vadal will be freaking studs. Book that. Hawkins, Austin and Edinburg are a bit more raw but the talent is there. No worries about this line.

This is the strongest and deepest part of our O-Line. We brought in a bunch of new guys this year, and they are massive. Having Turner and Williford back is a huge boost. Also Fehoko Fanikia may jump one of these guys in the summer.

---

I give the OGs a solid A. This line will be sick this year. Mett is going to shine with his talent, these lineman and our RBs.

Elliot Porter played a couple of downs, and looked ok. We had a lot of botched snaps when he was in the game, and that is a little bit worrisome. Porter is also the only one with any experience at the position.

---

Again, fundamental stuff. He can block and has good form. The snaps are the easiest to teach. He got another year under moffitt and will be more confident in his strength to not rush snaps.

Every excited about this offense. More excited than I've been in a whole for an LSU offense.
