I was definitely on the Feliciano over Burford train but this wasnt a good game for him imo, on the heel of a mediocre game against TB. Just re-watching highlights and not even all-22 and oof...lost some one on one reps to Reed especially in pass pro, fossil Bobby Wagner was getting off his blocks and stopping CMC...the false start also didnt help.

You're right. Give him a little pass moving from LG to RG (not playing next to Trent) but it's something to keep an eye on. That right side is still a problem indeed. And hopefully Banks can get back to his peak level soon too. Brendel is what he is. Gotta keep Trent healthy.

Agree 💯%, as Feliciano gets more comfortable at the RG spot, hopefully his play improves.
Struggled against Lenard Williams but a lot of OG do. Huge test against Philly as their strength on that DL side is the weakness of our side of the OL from center to RT.

For what its worth, Feliciano is bigger than Burford and hopefully can hold his ground better than Burford against the Eagle DT's. I saw one of the pressures Feliciano gave up in the Seattle game was a miscommunication between Brendel/McKivitz and Feliciano (I couldn't get the number), and so I hope more practice reps helps in that area for the right side.
He's been playing well lately, really helped upgrade the RG spot. I was meh on the signing when it happened but he's been more than solid, also appreciate how often he's the first to help Brock up or celebrate with him after a touchdown. Maybe its the tattoos but he reminds me a lot of Alex Boone when he was here.

I get that he was an unknown but when the bar is set so low as burford set it why does it take 3/4 of a season to realize this guy is far better than burford?
