Norwell improved this year. It's honestly the penalties across the line that has hurt this team more than anything. It's a trickle down effect. Not only does it negate a positive play 9 times out of 10, especially for our team, but it also sets you up in an obvious 3rd and a country mile situation where you know the defense is pinning it's ears back.

Most of the weaknesses this year come from Robinson at LT and some struggling here and there at RT with a rookie in Taylor. We also had a revolving door at RG and Linder was heavily penalized throughout this season so far. In all honesty. They played much, much better than I had hoped for in Oakland. Minshew had several instances where the pocket was clean enough to make a read or step up into it if needed.

We'll see what direction they go in during the draft.
