TBird Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 From national writer Pete Prisco. Pete Prisco from CBS Sportsline on Ricky WagnerPete Prisco @PriscoCBS · 13h Right side of Ravens line with Yanda and Wagner could be one of the best soon Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS · 13h Wagner is more athletic than I thought. Better than Michael Oher, that's for sure. Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS · 14h Ricky Wagner of the Ravens was really good against the Steelers. Good, young player. Killed Worilds Quote
TBird Posted September 18, 2014 Author Posted September 18, 2014 Oher has gotten worse in Tenn. PFF gave him a -2.25 while Wagner got a +1.15. Quote
oldno82 Posted September 18, 2014 Posted September 18, 2014 Wagner has been a super surprise. If he can keep it up, I'll agree with Prisco. Quote
TBird Posted September 19, 2014 Author Posted September 19, 2014 He comes from those big and tough Wisconsin lines ala Joe Thomas of the Clowns. He was injured when drafted but Oz got him anyway and let the injury heal while learning the playbook.He started vs Denver last year in Oher's spot. Gave up 2 sacks but it was vs one of the best pass rushers in thegame. Yanda said there would have been more sacks with any other rookie RT. Then there was the game in Miami last year when he played on an over-balanced line and Rice scored standing upafter Wagner pancaked his man. Yanda said he came in here worked his butt off and kept his mouth shut. He remindsme of me. LOL Quote
varaven45 Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Wagner is becoming quite a find and a much needed one on the OL. Quote
