I’m enjoying all the OL posts, but I feel like every year McVay doesn’t get this figured out until the bullets are already flying.

IMO this (OL) should be sorted out by the end of camp, but what do I know…maybe it is already.
Not having them get even a few live reps in preseason has a cost

Agreed. Seems like every fucking year the OL slows our start.

Last year some of us were discussing this fact when we were already seeing the danger signs of Avila failing at Center. Rams tried to spin that bullshit as per usual and as teams tend to do. But bottom line is when your starting OL doesn't play in preseason you don't have a lot of wiggle room to fuck around in camp. Camp and more importantly the scrimmages become critical for live reps to polish your top five.

I think this year McVay has the OL positioned far better to be ready game one. Of course since we can never have nice things on the OL we end up of course with Jackson having the blood clot issue, and if that affects his readiness Stafford's gonna get beat to hell off the blindside. Trying to be positive here, really. I hope he can start and play a full 17 weeks for us. But we have an old pocket QB who is not his usual badass self when his blindside is unsettled because he goes full gunslinger mode.

Our division is going to be very strong. Certainly stronger than Philly's division. We have the better QB, but they have by far the better OL. If Jackson is good for 17 games then we're close to them. But there's no way in hell we'll be in the mix for the bye if Jackson is in and out of the lineup. We'll be dropping games early and end up with the usual late season run if we're lucky.

Limmer, Dedich, and Leveston make for a great depth chart on the interior. We also added McMahon from Philly who has not looked great at this level but he is only 24. And we have a few UDFAs behind them.

Sad thing is as good as the interior depth looks the OT depth looks like shite. Humphries helps, however if he has to spell Jackson we're up shit creek on both starting and depth quality with a subpar LT and McClendon as the first OT off the bench.

another yt training camp vid. #5 is by far our laziest route runner, but you can tell he relies on speed to get open--not a bad trait to have. #15 doing pretty good too. No Adams.
#18 is the only one blocking the sled correctly (from what I know, which is squat lol) some interesting blocking drills towards the end.

I think McVays strongest year for Olines was his first year when he had Whit, Saffold, Sullivan, Brown and Hav. Those were the daysss...
 
I feel like the Oline has more depth than it has in a few years.. I guess I'm more excited about Humphries than Noteboom.. though it's not like there's a huge difference there. I mean.. Humphries has been injured 2 of last three years.
But Limmer and Quessenbury (sp) I like as depth. We'll see.

Konata Mumpfield looks like just an excellent guy to have in your WR room as your 4th, 5th or 6th guy. I feel like he can go out and get a catch.

Feels like Dedich has a lot of tools but lacks the size you want at guard - so to me - makes sense to try him at center.
He actually anchored pretty well in pass pro against a bull rush.
Like all young OL he could get fooled and get beaten by a more experienced player using their hands or leverage.
He also, generally, got decent movement in the run game.
 
I don't agree with all of the downer talk about the Oline. I really like the starting five. Staying healthy is the only real concern. Its basically the same unit as 2023 and they were very good
