Quote:Understood, however, there has been plenty of praise for Joeckel after the 1st two pre-season games.  This brings it back to reality.  Atkins or not, Joeckel is not a long-term solution at any starting position on the O-Line.  This is one of the top draft priorities for 2017.
 

Totally agreed. Nothing is set in stone long term at that position. Joekel has to play much better this season than that, but there does not seem to be anyone else on the roster to plug into the LG right now.

 

Having said that. He may not be up against anyone as good as Atkins all season, at least no one with any similar history of excellence.

 

If anything this may be a good gut check moment in a game that does not count. At this point you have to hope. 

 

I know it will never happen, but I would love for them to have the first team offensive line for 1 drive against the Falcons. Just for the sake of better cohesion.
