Idk.. Compton has been doing better. He looked better against the Eagles as well. I think it's a little early to throw him out with less than a season of real game time experience.

I think the middle of our O-Line needs more work than anything. I see more guards getting pushed to RG3 face. Chester is getting worse every year and Lav was a terrible pickup.

Agree. Compton hasn't been bad. He has been good in the run game.

Compton is like most of the lineman that Shanny brought in. Good in the stretch run but not so good at anything else. He struggles with power run blocking and pass blocking 1 vs 1 on a DE or 3-4 OLB. He is a better version of Polumbus. Tall but not that wide. Has good speed for the stretch run blocking. When pass blocking for a QB in the pocket, he either plays the speed rush and will get run over if he guesses wrong, or he has to set up really hard for the bull rush and loses all mobility to stop a speed rush. Hes better than Polumbus, but that doesnt mean a whole lot.
