The Great, Big Joeckel Thread (merged threads)


Quote:I would for a 5th and 7th.  I wanted to keep Monroe.  I thought Joke would be at RT, but you know how Caldwell loves draft picks.  The problem with me is 2 things: 1. He's getting absolutely man handled in the PRE-SEASON, and 2. He plays with zero passion/toughness against people who just bull rush him.  Everytime he's given up a pressure or sack, they bull rush him.  They don't have to use spin/swim moves on him, they just have to be mean.  I'm sure Boselli is thinking he is a wussy.  It's not someone I would want to protect my young upcoming QB.  He already almost took out Bortles knee, and then what are we left with? CHENNE...
OK, just trying to get a feel for where you stand. I don't agree, but appreciate the info. From what I have seen he got absolutely manhandled twice in preseason, once by Harrison, and once on that scary play where he landed near Bortles' knee. Those were flat out ugly plays. But there is a reason places like PFF look at every snap, to get context for the way someone is playing overall. Hence the Vine posts regarding Monroe. When you say passion/toughness, I don't think he lacks in those, but that might just be semantics. I call it playing with a nasty streak. Boselli had it in spades, Joeckel doesn't seem to right now. Personally, I think he lacks confidence, but I don't really care to play armchair sports psychologist, Either he gets it together this season or not. So I trade you a 5th and 7th, who are you starting week one?
