    Not bad. It's tough playing next to Lauvao, who probably won't make the team

    next year. Need a ROG to step in, and life would be easier for the Browns' RT.

    no shit. gotta be one of the first 3 or 4 picks. otherwise we will never have a running game.

    I think it better be a priority in FA. Go get Mitchell's brother, or his backup.

    didnt' expect that high of a ranking. But I'm really not sure how much poor rg play affected Scwartz getting beat "alot" 1v1 on the outside. Just remembering the Miami game, he got scalded around the edge. And cousins was bulled into the backfield "every single down". So yeah we absolutely need to address the guard spots.

    I think they swapped the 1 for a 3 by mistake

    He was getting beaten easily by a speed rush early in the season. There's a stat in that article saying he gave up 7 sacks in the first 4 games, then 4 for the rest of the season. Perhaps he just trained against mingo the entire time?! Either way, he improved as the season went on, like his rookie year. If he can just start strong with it, he'll be excellent.

    And yes, better help at OG would be good.

    Wait.....by reading these boards, I though Schwartz was a piece of crap! 😉

    If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

    imo he still is. hasn't proved anything to me.......yet.

    maybe if the guard next to him stepped up i'd believe that ranking. but for now i'm with londonbrown thinking they made a typo and printed a 1 instead of a 3. the whole right side of our OL is shit.

    Or possibly, he was a second year player learning a new system....

    He's also ranked #14, not #12, btw.

    #14 seems reasonable enough. I don't know enough about the bottom 16. Lauvao definitely didn't help him, but he still got bullied.

    Schwartz is good. Not sure why there's any doubters. He was a 2nd round pick, and was the purest RT coming out of his draft class. Sure, he got beat bad a couple times, but what player doesn't? Thomas even gets beat on occasions. He's going into his 3rd year, and should be solid for us at that spot for years to come... The only problem on the line was RG all season long...

    You are correct, everyone gets beat at times. But you have to admit the start of his season was scary. I believe he will be a great tackle, no matter who is at G. Defending one on one pass rushers has nothing to do with the G. He will continue to improve and impress

    not entirely, but we have bigger problems imo

    This is why I prefer to get veteran lineman through FA, or if you get a draft pick he sits for a few years. They're just used to the speed. Guys like Thomas are unfortunately an anomaly.....guys that can start on your team from day one.

    you want OL to draft? look at thomas's alma mater in wisconsin.

    I know many fans wanted Joe Thomas' little bro, Crimini or something like that a while back. I think he just got released. Was he any good? I mean obviously he was cut, but does he suck worse than Lavaman or Pinkey?
