OL needs to pass block better so he's not stuck playing as a 6th OL so much

His value in the scheme comes in part because of his ability to stay in and block. That's what sells the play action. He's not just a big WR, he's a true Y.

i can see that, but him playing 6th ol shouldn't be necessary unless it is a specific play design. not because our ol is crap.
 
excerpt from an article on "the athletic" website about one potential breakout candidate from each team:

Green Bay Packers​

LB Edgerrin Cooper​

Does Cooper count since he won NFC Defensive Player of the Week twice as a rookie last year? The 2024 second-round pick wasn’t a Defensive Rookie of the Year finalist — he finished sixth in voting, perhaps because he missed three games in the second half of the season — so I’m still picking him here. Cooper can rush the passer and cover, and he should hardly come off the field when healthy after battling injuries and learning defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley’s system last season. Cooper is up 20 pounds since he arrived in Green Bay to 240 because he wanted to “feel powerful” while still keeping his explosiveness. He said almost 100 percent of the weight he gained is muscle. — Matt Schneidman

See I am not buying what he's selling..20 pounds of muscle is still 20 pounds and you lose a step at 240.... he's going to have to show me
