This years OL class looks like maulers

A couple years from now it could be Kraemer and Boudreaux on the same side of the line. What back isn't going to want to run behind that duo. Also Eichenberg who has offers from everyone.

The o-line has seen a huge improvement under HH. Looks like he sends another first rounder to the draft this year. Elite talent is lining up to be coached by him.

I agree, however if the other side is fifth year seniors Bars and Nelson with senior Hoge at center that may not be the preferred side [just sayin...( : ]

imagine going to a bar with Nelson, Boudreaux and Kraemer! you go to the front of the line!

Every time I see Boudreaux I think he should be the bad guy in a Rocky movie.

Yeah kind of like the bully in a high school horror flick! You know, Kyle Rudolph reminded me of Scutt Farkas in Christmas Story Something about the curl of the lip in his high school recruiting pictures.

To be honest, these guys don't scar me non...bigger they are the harder they fall....

Go back to the Meatchicken board where you and your other aliases belong.

Is this why Michigan's OL is so terrible?

plumpbiff at it again. Never learns.

More props to HH for going into OSU's backyard and taking the top two o-linemen (i.e. Kraemer and Eichenberg) out from under UM's nose.

 

[Duo]

Truth is they are kind of "smallish" by comparison. Only one over 300.

Of course, they will all grow once they enter the strength and conditioning programs and are each assigned an individual trainer and dietitian that lays out their individual meal plans. Like strength and conditioning, the "training table" concept is a whole different science now days.

Shannon is a long-snapper, so he doesn't count as an every down offensive lineman. The average NFL offensive lineman is 6-5 and weighs in at 310. Kraemer is exactly that. The other two are 6'5" and don't have the fat load that a Johnson going to FSU or Taylor to Florida have.

 

[TheDecker]

Boudreaux isn't the biggest guy, from a frame standpoint. Thats really then "main knock" on him that's keeping him from being rated higher. With his athleticism and attitude, he would be roamed mich higher if he projected to play at 325lbs...but he'll probably play close to 300lbs

Eichenberg is the opposite. He has a huge frame, and definitely projects to play at 325lbs or more....with great length and athleticism for an OT (which why he ranked so high on most sites)
