Steelers' Zach Frazier leading rookie OL classThe 2024 NFL Draft possessed offensive line as a placement of toughness as well as deepness, which has played out in the 1st 3 weeks of the season. 9 rookies have actually created themselves as multi-game beginners: 4 deals with in the Chargers' Joe Alt, the Titans' JC Latham, the Saints' Taliese Fuaga as well as the Cowboys' Tyler Guyton 2 protections in the Patriots' Layden Robinson as well as the 49ers' Dominick Puni and also three centers in the Steelers' Zach Frazier, Bucs' Graham Barton and also the Cowboys' Cooper Beebe.Of those 9, the highest graded by Pro Football Concentration is actually quickly Frazier, the No. 6 fixate the web site. He's revealed both regulation football smarts and also a physicality to be able to align versus greater nose addresses, pulling praise from longtime Steelers facility Maurkice Pouncey on Ben Roethlisberger's podcast."

Kudos to anybody that may name the present document owner. (It's past Jets recipient Rob Moore, who possessed 208 intendeds in 1997.) There have just been actually five 200-target times in NFL history, none since Julio Jones in 2015. For perspective, the Cowboys' CeeDee Sheep led the NFL with 181 intendeds in 2023.

That's the entire Super Bowl age list.Introducing ... The NFL distinguishes between newbies and first-year gamers-- a novice resided in university last year, whereas a first-year player may possess performed a practice squad or even in one more league.
