How Saints' Ryan Ramczyk went from a convenience store clerk who quit the game to an All-Pro

Yes, the New Orleans Saints right tackle has all those physical traits you want. He’s big (listed at 6-foot-6, 314 pounds) and he moves with an athletic grace usually not associated with his bulk. But it’s the plan — how he studies the favorite moves of the guy who will line up across from him, then figures out the best way to deploy the techniques he’s spent so many hours honing — that makes him so tough to beat.

Ramczyk vs Mack will be key today.

Re: How Saints' Ryan Ramczyk went from a convenience store clerk who quit the game to an All-Pro

He's the best offensive tackle in the NFL, and if he's not All-Pro when the NFL honors are handed out, then I'll stash All Pro with ProBowl in the trash heap when folks argue with me about who was better...

Look at the freaking skins he has so far this season...

Ram is taking names and numbers

How he and Armstead take on Mack will be key today

Khalil Mack is a warrior, I'd be curious to see how many snaps Mack faces Ramczyk vs faceoffs with Armstead because there will be a point where the Bears will need to get him going...

Expect colorguy at some point today, that pressure from Mack will count vs Ramczyk, but he stunted around another to create pressure, credit Chuck Pagano for finding a way to get Mack involved...

If I were Payton, run Murray behind Zach Line right at Mack early and often, let the heavy artillery of our tackles soften him up then wear him out by the middle of the 3rd quarter for some off-tackle gashes...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

There is an empty feeling deep down in your stomach when you hang up your cleats. I'm glad he's a Saint. I sure hope we can afford to keep him down the road.

Wow that is real fortunate that he ended up with Wisconsin after his change of heart and got coached up to the player that he is today.

Who the hell is this Khalil Mack feller you speak of ?

I'm so glad the Niners blocked our pick (Reuben Foster) & we went with a big nasty o lineman instead. Beautiful pick @ #32.

Ryan is a OUT THE BOX STUD. Doesn't trash talk, brings his lunch pale every Sunday and gives opposing DE's the business for 4 quarters. Dominant player.

The Bears got humbled at home.

I bet Ryan is in the film room right now game planning for the Cardinals.

From selling corn nuts to shutting down Khalil Mack!
