He's been a low-end career backup (i.e. subpar performance) to this point in his career. But why sign him? Because this is a signing for next year. One thing that stood out when looking at him is unlike so many others, Christian has good feet for an OT. Where he's lacking is technique but most of all functional strength. This guy needs a year of focused weight training. Wendell has done an amazing job with the OL. Give Christian a year to bulk up and strengthen as well as work on his technique and the Rams may have at the very least a solid backup...perhaps a guy who can challenge for the LT start. My only concern is about Christian's lack of development. Has it been due to issues with coaching or self-motivation (i.e. work ethic)? One of the most overlooked aspects of a good OT is his feet. Christian looks to have good, quick feet. His issues have been poor technique and physical strength. Both of those things are completely coachable areas. It's what makes Larson stand out. He looks like he's got decent feet. IMO Christian's feet IMO are better. Being able to mirror is huge and is one of the things that has troubled Noteboom since his injury in 2022 and again in 2023. Before those injuries, Joe had excellent footwork. The signing of Christian could keep him on the roster for the rest of the season. by 69RamFan 1 month 14 hours ago Total posts: 3325 Joined: Oct 15 2016 LA CA by way of NY/NJ Superstar Geron Christian OT POST #2 actionjack liked this post Dare wrote: It's why I think Arcuri's improved play has been so crucial.

Moderator Re: Geron Christian OT POST #3 Ya. If a dude has been a below avg career backup, he’s had plenty of time to develop. What sucks about depth that sucks is that they are usually on the scout team. And you can’t give our starting defense a realistic and good looks if your scout team OL sucks. Point is, when you lose starter you also lose quality depth as they have to move up. What comes in behind them typically ain’t pretty (2022 anyone). This hurts the team in multiple ways at the same time. by safer 1 month 12 hours ago Total posts: 1323 Joined: Feb 03 2016 LA Coliseum Pro Bowl Geron Christian OT POST #4 Nobody's talking about Bruss for OT. He is very improved this year (at OG) but I think he's got better feet than ANY of these guys AND he knows our play calls.

Sean was OC in Washington when they drafted Christian so he knows what kind of player he has. Christian's career was derailed by a knee injury in 2020 and he's never really gotten back on track. Could he start in AZ? Maybe which would account for Nsekhe being on the PS as their swing OT? by snackdaddy 4 weeks 1 day ago Total posts: 9826 Joined: May 30 2015 Merced California Hall of Fame Geron Christian OT POST #7 Dare wrote:I just looked at the timeline for both Christian and McVay.
