It's easy, and only takes a few moments.BB had a right to be excited about Guyton's FR/Int (however they score it), he was rushing inside, saw the ball in the air, pushed the blocker to the side and made the grab picking up a couple more yards in the process. A thing of beauty from being aware of the ball to fighting through the block to corralling the ball to tucking it away and gaining positive ground. The kid is coming on strong.
Pierre Woods only had 11 reps, but he made his presence felt in limited action.
On another LB note: Vince Redd was one of the black jerseys in today's practice. That's twice now if I'm not mistaken.
Looking at the offense #s around a third of the plays #44 was in there at FB. If you re-watch the game note how much Evans played better as a lead blocker. He was outstanding in that role. Coincidence that the run game improved? (Yes, I know the Donk's D blows chunks)
With Richardson and Wilhite getting playing time you have to wonder what the deal is with Wheatley not making the game day roster most weeks.
Aw shucks, y'all must be thinking of some other box of rocks' linebacker analysis.You made a comment a few weeks back in another thread essentially getting at the fact that LB may not be an overwhelming need come draft time in April. I'm starting to agree more and more. Mayo is starting and faring pretty well, Guyton is getting more and more snaps each week, Redd is winning practice player of the week, Crable had a good preseason and is understandably inactive for games, and Woods is playing well in a limited role. I don't know anything about Bo Ruud, but with AD signed through 2011, the future of our LB corp looks pretty nice.
