Which recent cast offs do we miss?

I liked Billy Turner. Third round pick for us
which Coach GM duo cut him in 2016 ?
in 2019 he signs 4 year 28 million with the packers. He protects Aaron Rodgers.
looked good Monday Night . Yea should have kept him I say

I'm 100% convinced its coaching. Its almost impossible to draft as many offensive lineman as we have and have them all play subpar, and even regress.

Its such a high % hit rate compared to many positions, even if you sucked at drafting them youd luck into a couple good starters with as much investment as we have put in.

Ereck Flowers, and Richie Incognito. Incognito was probably the best guard we’ve had the last 15 years and he had a mean steak this group is lacking.

Unfortunately, Philbin and Martin got "queasy" so Richie had to go!

It's no surprise that Philbin ruined the o-line (which is STILL a mess), and Incognito went to the Pro Bowl as a Bill.

I'd say Turner was one of the most hated on this board. Many wanted to trade him for his 50+ year old jack diesel farther

Thomas was probably the most hated

Maybe the negative post on this board influence in a bad way, Turner looks good protecting Aaron Rodgers ,he would most likely not have gotten Tua. Busted up

Billy Turner is pretty much proof positive. Yes sure he may have improved since his time here, but he surely didn’t go from walking turnstile to solid starter.

It’s a combination of coaching and QB, probably more so coaching. Both those things have major impacts on the line

A lot of OLmen simply need to go to a team that runs an offense that fits their skill set. GB has Rodgers, Jones, Adams, etc. which keeps the defense honest. If you try to confuse a QB like Rodgers and bring extra pressure he will find the soft spot in the coverage and make you pay. A guy like Billy Turner can thrive there because he isn’t asked to do anything unreasonable.

I’m not old enough to have seen the glory days, so Incognito is 100% the best guard we’ve had in my memory. Think the first Dolphins game I remember was the one on Thanksgiving vs the Cowboys in 1993. So I’d raise your 15 years and make it almost 30.

Not necessarily unreasonable, but expecting a consistently clean pocket in the modern NFL is a mistake. You need to help the big guys out with play calling.

Not saying it never happens, it does if you're elite across the line, but more often than not its on the QB to understand the defense and his protection to manipulate the pocket.

Well, when you are a young player on an OL with young players and your QB is also young it can be seen as unreasonable because there is no one on the field to help you. There is no experienced vet QB or IOL making the correct protection calls. There is no one emphasizing communication pre or post snap. It is a situation that makes it very easy for a potentially “good” young OLmen to fail.

Ok. But personally I don't think any of that is asking unreasonable upon young players. Learning on the job in this aspect is not unreasonable to me. Some are just faster than others. Just like Turner (who I liked and didn't understand moving on from)

For sure. I kind of tie that part into the coaching.
