im just going on what ive seen

strief doesnt let the DEs get the inside rush on him and he is quick enough to meet them on the outside after they commit

bushrod just gets manhandled all over the place.....i really have nothing good to say about him......at least strief doesnt give up the inside and quicker route to the QB

NFL Network moving the chains, the Fox color analyst and former D-lineman for the Bears.

He was also the one who stated Nicks was one of the best OG's he's seen on film in the league.

I've never thought Strief handled speed rushers well at all. He's got RT written all over him. He's massive yet kinda slow-footed.

I'd say Bushrod probably has better potential at LT than Strief.

i hate to take credit away from the analyst

but i was talking about carl nicks long before he was this season

last season i noticed his rare technique and ultimate mix of both power and great footwork

heres to tooting my own horn

oh and i dont have the NFL network so i wouldnt have any idea who he was unless he was on it very regularly

As was I, about week 5. And as were several other posters who were paying attention. I'm not sure if I'd re-joined this board yet though.
