@LelouchVeeGeass Well if you would’ve traded him during the off-season like they should’ve. We could’ve picked up a MUCH cheaper FA or drafter his replacement
@LelouchVeeGeass Yah what not gain assets for someone in the decline? He’s got what maybe 3 years left? Why not get a 1st or 2nd and continue building the team?
There aren't many bigger Zack Martin fans than me, but I think anyone who really studies the tape would admit that he hasn't been playing up to his usual level this year, which is confirmed by the numbers as well.
Martin's 10.3% positively-graded run-blocking rate is the lowest of his career. Although, his 9.3% negatively-graded run-blocking rate is the 2nd lowest of his career. His 5.2% pressure rate allowed is also the highest of his career, and his 97.0 pass-blocking efficiency rating is tied for the lowest of his career.
Now, these aren't bad numbers compared to most guards (as most would be ecstatic with these numbers) but they are down from Martin's usual levels of dominance and consistency. #Cowboys
