Ditto, Needle. Hinton was trucking linemen and linebackers both last year in short yardage formations, especially on the goal line. I saw Hinton's hold and it was obvious. Looked like he expected a different move and hopefully won't happen often.
I also had outsize expectations for Sarrell. He proved to be strong but lead footed and an early leg injury didn't help. He was cut early by ?? this year. If he could train to become more nifty, he could make it.
And, back to my first question, does anyone know anything about different techniques for the OL this year?
Yeah, Sarrell was touted in HS as one of the, if not the top lineman in the nation. He got exposed a bit in the All American game by the quick D-lineman and dropped down in the rankings somewhat. His Stanford career was decent, but he certainly never lived up to his HS press clippings. Hopefully he can catch on with another NFL team and his pro career is not over before it started.
