Dennard plays nothing like Samuel.

Actually there are plenty Of posters who have something worthwhile to add to discussions unfortunately given your initial posts you aren't likely to be one of them. It was bad enough that many of the faux draft experts ripped Wilson endlessly when they took him but those who continue to act as if they were right when he leads all rookies in takeaways look like complete idiots who refuse to allow reality to intrude upon their poorly formed and uneducated conclusions. Wilson has made some mistakes but overall has played well and made those who ripped him look every bit as uninformed as they truly are. Reading and regurgitating Kiper et al doesn't make anyone an expert, it just fools them into believing they are.

He sticks to his WR, makes plays, and when he's beat he's right there. His game speed is way faster than his bad CB forty time of 4.53 too. He has #1 CB potential.

The only real negative is his height, a shade under 5'10" it appears as he looked a good 2 inches shorter standing near Ridley.

Many of the early (Jan/Feb) mocks had Dennard as a late first but he dropped as the process moved towards. The draft. The arrest is the only reason he fell so far, and it's likely many teams thought they could get him as a UDFA's but Belichick saw the value and took the risk. Great move, looks to be panning out. They may well have the pieces for a really good secondary mostly in place, and Beilichick may finally have gotten his secondary picks right.

Beats missing the game man.

Thanks buddy, much appreciated.

I actually have Sunday Ticket, so I can usually catch all the games no matter what. In this instance though, you cannot watch a Sunday Ticket game IF the local network is broadcasting that game, which makes sense.

Sometimes you can get caught in the middle though, if the early game goes into OT (like the stupid DAL/CLE game did) and they continue to show that game until its conclusion, which they should.

I ended up missing the entire 1st quarter, which I was not happy about. If it happens in the future I will certainly check out the site you have recommended. Thank you.
