Run the Damn Ball!

[coltsfansince65]

Absolutely love this kid.

[WoolMagnet]

Ballard needs to find 52 more like him.

 

on a side note..... who else was hoping he’d throw that punter headfirst into a trash can?

[HOZER]

Absolute stud, so glad we drafted him!

[John Hammonds]

Love this guy!

Last years run was so much more fun than this years weekly stroke waiting to happen. Nothing better than Baldys take on Big Q.

Thanks for sharing.  Nice to see something positive.

Nelson is definitely the LG you would talk about...if you in fact talked about LGs. 

[shakedownstreet]

He's a BAD man!

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

We need to find a RG just like him.

 And he is still a kid!  Not even 24 yet.  It's kind of scary how good he could be in a couple of years!

10 pounds 10 ounces at birth.

 

Holy bujeezuz.

[Myles]

Thanks for this.   My favorite part is his tackle at 5:30.

He'd better buy his momma whatever she wants with his next contract!  She earned it!

I was 10 pounds 12 ounces.  I am not near the size of Nelson

I like the “what do you want to be when you grow up?” “BIG”

The ship may have already sailed, but I'm hoping we can get a very solid RT and move Smith into RG (I think Smith does fine outside, but think he's a little more natural inside).

 

On a side note: the clips of Q's basketball all-star game were at the gym I went to HS at -- always gotta root for a fellow Jersey Shore guy.

Two of our four were 10lbs 12 ounces. One is 6'9" 350.

Have you seen Smith play RG in the NFL? If not, are you basing this on his collage career? Just curious. Would you risk moving him an unsettling his current status. Being fine might be the best we can hope from him. Surely easier to replace one moving part than shoogle around with two?

I'm sure it's mostly because of how he was discussed coming into the league.   He was a first team all american at RG.   Many had noted that his natural position is guard.   I wouldn't mind him staying at tackle, but he gives the team options.  They can bring in a RG or a RT and be set.

No, I haven't... but he has prototypical size for a G (in fact, he's listed on the team's website as a G).  He has played very well at RT.  What @Myles said, I agree with.  Regardless, I think that just about everyone can agree that Glowinski is the weakest link on our OL (which is a pretty darn good OL).  If we want to take the next step on OL, we need to improve the RG position.  Right now, we don't have a right tackle better than Smith.. that said, if we did bring in another T who was better than Glowinski is at RG and afford the opportunity to move Smith to RG, I think our OL would be significantly improved.
