Here is some information on center Ethan Pocicand Cam Robinson from walter football.com..

 

 

Cam Robinson*, OT, Alabama 

Height: 6-6. Weight: 326. 

Projected 40 Time: 5.20. 

Projected Round (2017): Top-20. 
<i> 1/7/17: </i>There is a fair amount of debate about Robinson for the NFL. One team said they had Robinson as a top-15 pick and believe that he is a Russell Okung- or Ryan Clady-caliber left tackle for the next level. Another playoff team graded Robinson late in the first round. That organization thinks a team could get by with him at left tackle, but ideally, Robinson would be a right tackle. One NFC team gave Robinson a second-round grade. That team said Robinson could have problems with speed rushers if on the blind side. They said they project him similar to Tampa Bay's second-year left tackle Donovan Smith. This is a weak tackle draft, however, so Robinson will probably go in the top-20 picks. 

Robinson had a strong start to the 2016 season with a number of impressive performances, including games against USC and Arkansas. He held Razorbacks edge rusher Deatrich Wise Jr. to two tackles. Robinson held his own against Ole Miss, but did have an ugly play getting bull rushed by the Rebels' Marquis Haynes. Robinson had a rough start against Tennessee's Derek Barnett giving up a sack and some pressures before settling down to have a strong final three quarters versus the Volunteers edge rusher. Robinson had a good game against Texas A&M superstar Myles Garrett and kept Garrett from getting a sack. 

Overall, Robinson's pass protection has been improved this season. His bending at the knee looks improved, his feet are better, and he looks quicker in his drop. Sources say that he lost 10-15 pounds prior to the season and that has helped him in pass blocking. Robinson is still very good in the ground game. 

<i>9/3/16: </i>Robinson was a freshman sensation for the Crimson Tide in 2014. He was the leader on an offensive line that allowed only 16 sacks on the season. It didn't go as well in 2015 as Robinson allowed pressure and sacks on the quarterback. He had some real problems with Texas A&M superstar Myles Garrett for example. However, Robinson was better down the stretch and helped open a lot of holes for Heisman Trophy winning running back Derrick Henry. Given the improvement as the season went along, it wouldn't be surprising if Robinson takes his play to another level in 2016. 

There are a lot pluses to the junior's game for the next level. As a pass protector, he has the length and quickness to defend the edge. He also has quick enough feet to cut off speed rushers and also displays some ability to bend at the knees. Robinson uses his length well and adjusts wisely to blitzes. He needs to get more consistent with his bending and shuffling his feet though. He gets sloppy sometimes, and that leads to him giving up some pressures and sacks. 

In the ground game, Robinson is a quality blocker. He has strength to turn defenders at the point of attack and open holes. Robinson is quick to the second level to hit blocks as well and is able to pull. He has some power at the point of attack with a physical demeanor.

 

Ethan Pocic, C/G, LSU 

Height: 6-7. Weight: 309. 

Projected 40 Time: 5.39. 

Projected Round (2017): 1-3. 
<i> 1/7/17: </i>Pocic played well overall in 2016. He is an athletic center who is well-balanced as a run blocker and pass protector. Pocic did a nice job of opening holes at the point of attack and was reliable with giving his quarterback time. Pocic isn't a bulldozing interior offensive lineman, but he fires to the second level to hit blocks while being effective on double teams. For the NFL, it would help Pocic to add more strength to create more movement in the ground game and hold up against bull rushers. 

<i>8/6/16: </i>Pocic was very good in 2015. The second-year starter made an impact at the point of attack with well-rounded play in the ground game and reliability in pass protection. Pocic helped open a lot of holes for Leonard Fournette to have a massive 2015 season. 


Pocic has natural athleticism and is excellent at hitting blocks on the second level. He does a quality job of sustaining his blocks and has strong technique with hand placement. While Pocic isn't a true bull as a run blocker, he is effective at opening holes in the ground game. 


In pass protection, Pocic has been very reliable. He is good at hitting double teams on tackles and also is smart in his positioning. He also has the athleticism and quickness to help handle interior speed rushers. Adding some strength to his base will help him against the heavy, powerful 3-4 nose tackles who are in the NFL. Pocic has an interesting body type for the next level. He is taller than most teams like to have at center, but that is if his listed height is accurate, and more often than not, schools exaggerate the height and weight of players.

This would fix the oline problems for sure..

---

It would fill some needs but at #4 overall? I think there will be some seriously huge talent on the board at 4--A top shelf safety, pass rusher, or even a rb seems to be where we are going. 

 

I'm not giving up on Beechum yet either. He was coming off a terrible knee injury this last year but in Pittsburgh he was a T-Rex on the O-line.

Calling Deshawn Watson a future bust since 3/19/17. If I eat crow, I will keep this in here and proclaim JackCity a genius. 

no thanks.

How bout not and say we did

---

No disrespect, but I don't know what you look like but I hope you're not as dumb as you look. Two rookies on the online sounds great lol. RIP Blake Bortles

---

Cam Robinson? Good God.

---

I'm definitely down to draft a lineman but not day 1. And I don't want more than 1 rookie starting either.

---

I keep seeing the "Offensive line is a problem" argument everywhere on here and I keep saying "No. Not really". 

 

34 sacks surrendered in 2016. That's 16 - 18 less sacks surrendered on average since 2014 and 2015 when we were giving up over 50 sacks per season. As far as the running game? I chomp it up to play calling by about 75%. Especially when Olson was running this offense the first eight weeks of the season. 

 

Under Olson through 7 games: 508 rushing yards / 2x 100 yard games / Played the 21st, 29th, 9th, 22nd, 24th, 20th and 17th ranked defense. 

 

Under Hackett through 9 games: 1,123 rushing yards / 1x 200 yard game / 3x 100 yard games / Only one game with less than 80 yards on the ground during his play calling / Played the 7th, 11th (twice), 13th, 16th, 4th, 6th, 17th & 22nd ranked defense. And this was also with a 2nd or 3rd string guard at one point and a different center in place during that stint. 

 

And the pass protection pretty much stayed consistent. 17 sacks were surrendered during Olson's poor management through 7 games and 17 sacks were surrendered during Hackett's improved management of the offense against stiffer defenses with more back-ups and third stringers on the offensive line through 9 games. 

 

Don't see what others see I suppose. But the running game vastly improved as well as the pass protection in my mind and eyes and the numbers clearly indicate that that's the case.

Caldrac,I mean look at LG we had what 6 guys play at that one spot last year. If we want a good all around line we need continuity and if you draft guys high for OL they are supposed to be there for 10 years. Guys like Linder,he's one of our building blocks and will be for awhile,imagine 2 other guys on the line like that

---

The O-line isn't as much of a disaster as some make it out to be, Caldrac is right about that. I would still draft some linemen on day 2 and 3 though. We need a little depth up there, O line guys get really banged up.

Pass on CR in the first, especially at 4. Second sure.

IT WAS ALWAYS THE JAGS

Pass on CR in the first, especially at 4. Second sure.

It's more than likely that there will be a better lineman than Cam available at 35 too.

Pass.

Linder being here is debatable. He's yet to finish a full season since his rookie year. I am not against bringing in more competition or depth when it comes to the trenches on both sides of the football though. But I think with the first two picks in the draft they're going to be leaning towards a pass rusher or a playmaker in the secondary at No.4 again and double dipping on defense for a CB or DE again depending on what happens on day one. 

 

But Robinson at number four overall is too high. A lot of mocks have him slipping out of the top five in most cases and in some cases even slipping out of the top ten. I would be happy to see Taylor Moton in RD3 or RD4 to push Parnell or Cann on the right side. Pat Elfein out of OSU in RD3 or RD4 would be cool with me as well. He can play guard or center.

Most I've seen recently have him not even in the first round at all. Let alone top 10, or the 1st OL taken.

Hooker in the 1st, Pocic in the 2nd.
