Speaking of Zinter - not to derail the thread - but how did everyone think he looked when he got some playing time last year?
He struggled but he was also coming off a tough injury end of his last season at Michigan. I think he will look quite a bit better this season with a whole year of off season work outs. Last year due to the injury he did not get a whole off season of work.
I really don't know what to make of last year's OL struggles. Even the experienced vets looked perplexed at times.
Here's hoping the new coaches work out a lot better than the last group. Bloomgren did coincide with Callahan on the Jets, so hopefully he's talked to Bill about what worked well.
That's one thing that is going to be interesting to watch. All new OL coaching staff. I like what I've heard, but now let's see it.
Looking at the RBs we drafted. I expect a lot more smashmouth which I think fits Zinter better than drop back passing from shotgun. Just a more be the aggressor mentality should go a long way, I feel.
