Wow! BM's safety blitz should be huge for us. Did you see the stat line that said he had 98 tackles, 14 for a loss, the previous season (2005?) Bring em on!
Of course you have to take highlight films with a grain of salt, but damn, he wraps them up when he tackles.
I like it!
Yup, he drives and wraps. It's not just in that semi-highlight video either (I've been saying that was among his strong suites since Febuary). Different scouting reports state this about him, as well. I still think Meriweather's going to surprise some Pats fans.
That's not even really a highlight video and it only features plays from 5 games. There's better stuff out there of Meriweather (some of it's on the Patriots.com highligh video of Brandon (still not all though).
That statline from the previous season read 114 tackles, and 13 tackles for loss. Meriweather's ability to blitz was among the things I talked about that made him a great candidate for the Patriots. The past few years Rodney's really been their only safety who's a good blitzer, so in adding Meriweather they now have two Safeties with good blitzing ability.
Do you have the link to those videos?
and a lot of people thought Meriweather was a thug and not nearly as good as Landry-Griffin-Nelson. Now..the whole board is a fan.
I know, I remember having pretty heated arguements with people over Meriweather, and their lack of knowledge when it came to his story. for a little while over on ESPN I had people guaranteeing NE wasn't going to pick him, and if I bothered to even bring him up it would turn into a 5 - 7 page thread where the same two-four posters would say a bunch of BS about Meriweather. It's ok though since it only made it sweeter when NE did infact pick Brandon.
Everything looks good and all but I am keeping my opinion on Merriweather until he actually does these types of things against NFL Caliber athletes in a Regular Season and meaningful game.
