What an absolute gut punch on Bisontis going down last night because for a second week in a row he looked about as promising as a rookie OL could. The twitch and explosiveness leaps off the film.

I’m not evaluating college DL at the moment but this rush from Mesidor stopped me in my tracks. The fluidity and speed at which he clears the corner here is really impressive

Travis Burke might be the most violent finisher in the 2026 OL class. 6’9, 325 and you’re getting 5–7 knockdowns a game — not cleanup, not scheme… full-body, torque + drive finishes. Film room with Memphis RT ↓

Good afternoon to Beau Stephens and only Beau Stephens. The rookie played some BALL last night against the Chiefs. These first two reps vs. Chris Jones are the best 2 reps I've seen from any OL this preseason. Whew.

Seth McLaughlin has a big opportunity at center in Detroit. I was very high on him as a prospect relative to him going undrafted. He can play and I think had a promising first outing vs Cinci last night. Crafty, alert and tough.

NEW on Substack: Pass Pro Lab with Lane Johnson. We studied tape against Khalil Mack, Micah Parsons, T.J. Watt, Nick Bosa and others while discussing pass-set choreography, QB landmarks, route concepts and how elite tackles solve problems. One moment that stood out: Lane discussing how an early bull-rush from Abdul Carter reminded him of Micah Parsons and why studying Laremy Tunsil helped simplify his approach. Full film room + video:

One of the most interesting parts of my conversation with Laremy Tunsil was hearing him discuss the adjustment that changed his career. After years of getting beat inside, Tunsil began working with former NFL OL Mike Wahle, who introduced him to a line set influenced by Hall of Famer Walter Jones. The result was a simpler approach that helped eliminate many of the inside losses and spins that frustrated him earlier in his career. New Pass Pro Lab 👇

Spencer Brown was lights out yesterday against the Broncos with several impact blocks. He has been a personal protector for Allen scrambling right all season, a weapon in the screen game and dialed in on an island using a potent snatch-trap technique and effective change-ups.

The field conditions at the Super Bowl were an issue and frankly embarrassing considering the magnitude of the game. These are just some examples.

There was a lot to like from Cardinals OG Chase Bisontis in his preseason debut. Twitched up, fluid mover with good physicality. Could see the closer to average square power show up against Hunter but overall a very encouraging performance with a lot to build on.
