What Is Our Best Unit? (Minus QB)

What is our best unit?

 

[PDXChris]

I'm going with TE. All super young, physical, can block and two of the 3 are legit RZ threats. Tip could end up being too.

 

[MadCardDisease]

I was torn between TE and RB but I still think RB is a deeper unit. I also think Safety is pretty deep as well.

 

[Chopper0080]

Safety. Not the best value but the best in terms of talent. Not WR. Not TE. Not RB.

OL

TE group is amazing. RB group is awesome.

Neither of those groups amount to spit if the Oline does not hold up.

when are you guys gonna wise up and give the Big Men the credit they deserve??

Voted TE. If we exclude QB, then it can only be TE or S IMO. Only positions where we have a proven elite player and the depth is very good as well.

I do, however, think the play at OL is the most important factor for the team. They set the tone for the entire offense

We have good depth at RB, but no matter how good a fit Connor is to this system, he's not a top 5 RB.

The CB room has potential to become special over time.

TE is a great choice but I'll buck the trend a little and say WR.

By the end season, we'll see that MHJ/Wilson/Dortch/Jones are a pretty salty group!

 

[Chopper0080]

You all are a bit crazy on your TE love. It is a nice group but low production outside of McBride. Same with RB.

Salty doesn't equal best tho. Wilson has 3 catches on the year.

OL

This is an interesting one.

 

[CardNots]

This is an interesting one.

Mainly we have fixed the left guard position.

False starts are low to non existent or doesn’t seem to impact the game.

I don’t see KM being crashed up the middle of the line immediately as before.

KM seems to actually have what resembles a pocket more times than not.

Running lanes are available.

Less pass attempts seem to be tipped or batted down.

3 newly manned positions which should have spelled it will take time but I haven’t seen a drop off in performance.

Last not to be ignored, I’m a bit bias when it comes to the big guys

That would be me @bankybruce

 

[BritCard]

I voted OL.

I like the TE room, but both Higgins and Reiman have done very little at the NFL level, it's all potential.

The OL is legit underappreciated. We have one of the most difficult run schemes in the league and a mobile QB that is a nightmare for OL to block for.

It's not a top 10 unit, but it's getting there. It's certainly much better than given credit for.

I mean, it really might be TE just off of McBride’s ability alone. I loved the Budda/Jalen duo for a while, but I believe McBride is a better player than both of them combined at this stage. Budda is slowing down, Jalen remains consistently solid, but McBride is only going up.

 

[Totally_Red]

TE but RB is equally as good when you are 4 deep and have a solid veteran like Michael Carter on the practice squad.

Graded out as one of the worst on the team along with White so are you sure and why so?

 

[vince56]

The TEs are McBride and his McBridesmaids. They're awesome.

Whose grades? PFF?

Whose grades? PFF?

Someone posted it on another thread but yes probably PFF.
