Felt like there were a lot hyped rookie offensive lineman and even though the position can be hard to grow into from college to pros I didn’t know if one of these rookies has stood out at all?

I’m not sure, I haven’t been watching the rookie tackle film
Darnell Wright has been extremely promising, albeit making the kind of rookie mistakes you’re hoping he cleans up in a year or two, including committing way too many penalties
I just want to see Broderick on the left side, dude is a Dawg (Georgia bull and otherwise)
Jebus Crypes
Bro Jones
Broddy “The Body” Jones
Bill, get off of Reddit. I know scouting hasn’t worked for you, but you won’t find help here.
All things considered, Paris Johnson has played well.
Biased answer. Darnell Wright is the real deal.
More objective answer. Dawand Jones is probably going to be a great player that everyone will regret passing on.
i wanted him in the 5th
Anton Harrison has played against a murders row of pass rushers and has held up decently
I think Anton has been amazing against some of the best. He got wrecked a handful of times but he’s been a solid RT
Probably helps having who he has to practice against…
I like that kid in Cleveland- he looked pretty good against TJ Watt.
Then, of course, I’m kinda partial to Broderick who has done very well even though he’s playing a different side than he did at Georgia.
Broderick Jones has played starter-level snaps (85% or more) in 6 games. In those games, the Steelers have averaged 149.5 rushing yards per game. In 5 of 6 games the Steelers have rushed for more than 100 yards, including a high of 205.
He’s played bench-level snaps (10% or less) in 5 games. In those games, the Steelers have averaged 71.4 rushing yards per game. In just 1 of 5 did they rush for more than 100, a paltry 105.
In the last 3 games the Steelers lead the NFL, averaging 176.7 rushing yards per game.
Barring injury, Chukwuma Okorafor will be sitting on the bench of rest of the season.
What I’m seeing is you need to clone him and then have him play all 5 spots and 2 TE spots. Hell, line him up in the slot too. 8 Broderick Jones. 1 WR out wide for the random deep pass and a QB and RB. If one Broderick Jones is worth an average of 78 rushing yards per game, then 8 will be 624.8 rushing yards per game. And that average is based on throwing the ball probably over half the time
I’d have to take Dawand Jones over him pretty easy
Brojo. Big, beefy and he’s got good jokes.
I’ll just leave this here. Broderick Jones, #77

I’ll vote for Darnell Wright but Paris Johnson has also been great as a day 1 starting RT for a garbage offense. He might even have the upside to move to LT
they moved Paris to RT? He was a LT in college
What are you on about PJJ has been awful the last few weeks, he was decent the first 4 weeks of the season but went downhill since , he was losing matchups in garbage time to the rams 3rd stringers . He’s rated in the bottom 10 by PFF for right tackles . I agree with him moving to the left side but saying he’s the best of the class as of now is just wrong .
Darnell Washington
We got the 2/1 combo deal
Dawand Jones is a 4th rounder who has played 371 pass blocking snaps and has given up only 19 pressures and only 3 of those pressures have ended in sacks
Pretty crazy that he’s seemingly playing better than his college LT Paris Johnson who was a top 7 pick.
