2016 Practice Squad

I was impressed with Street during last year's preseason (wife is a DAL fan). Didn't pay much attention this summer, though.
Just read he's been limited by a bad back and didn't impress in camp or pre-season, but In Bill We Trust.
 
Thats another cut that annoys me.

Is Justin Coleman really that much better than Daryl Roberts? Does Justin Coleman have more upside than Daryl Roberts?

Sorry but no way.

Might be special teams again that was the difference.

I am just curious why you think Roberts has more potential? Coleman went to the combine and Roberts numbers are from a pro day. Coleman led all DBs at the combine in the bench press, 3 cone drill, 20-yard shuttle, and 60-yard shuttle. Roberts did not even get invited to the combine.

Roberts is also almost 26, which makes him over 2 1/2 years older than Coleman. Generally the younger player has more potential.

Roberts
Height: 5110
Weight: 187
40 Yrd Dash: 4.38
20 Yrd Dash: 2.50
10 Yrd Dash: 1.48
225 Lb. Bench Reps: 23
Vertical Jump: 39
Broad Jump: 11'01"
20 Yrd Shuttle: 4.06
3-Cone Drill: 6.66

Coleman
Height: 5105
Weight: 185
40 Yrd Dash: 4.53
20 Yrd Dash: 2.60
10 Yrd Dash: 1.54
225 Lb. Bench Reps: 20
Vertical Jump: 37 1/2
Broad Jump: 10'04"
20 Yrd Shuttle: 3.98
3-Cone Drill: 6.61

Coleman has proven he can play in the NFL, Roberts has not.

Yeah, I didn't pay close enough attention this summer, but last summer he looked very good. Let's hope the back issues subside on some level and he gets a shot at learning the playbook.
 
Unknown?? Did they catch a Pokemon or something?

 
This isn't a bad signing in my opinion.

He has a better college record than many practice squad types. All time receiving leader at Pitt. Might have gained muscle in two years.

So 4.4 is equal to 4.5? and vertical and broad are much higher.
I dont have any problem with Coleman on this team. He sucks as outside but as slot he wasnt bad last year.
I think that problem with Roberts is that he lost one year of playing and he had only one or two good week before going to IR after preseason first game.
 
4,55 forty
Antonio Brown - 4.57
Josh Gordon - 4.52
Dez Bryant - 4.52
DeAndre Hopkins - 4.57
Allen Robinson - 4.60

4.55 is not that bad.

I would take Coleman's numbers at the combine a lot more serious than I would Roberts at Marshalls pro day.
 
Uf Allen Robinson 4.60, didnt know that.
thnx for info.

There may be an element of "binkism" in my analysis and I'm trying to divorce myself from it.

I thought Roberts' was more sticky on the outside and inside and his athleticism was better thus making him a better CB

You are 100% correct. Coleman did ok last year and Roberts has not done enough.
 
Well ... here's that 6.3



I remember Street was a binky of mine. I think I had him with a 5th round grade personally with upside IIRC. Good pick. Take a shot on him.

Unless is a major school such as Alabama or Florida, etc. I take pro day numbers with a grain of salt. They are not nearly as accurate as the combine numbers. Coleman is every bit the athlete Roberts is and he is 2.5 years younger so he is not going to start to regress in the next few seasons.
 
IMO it was Jones' doing a bang-up job on special teams. Plus I think hes a better athlete than LeBlanc. In coverage I kinda thought they were pretty equal.

As you say, he was doing a bang up job on special teams. As you say, great athlete, fastest 40 time by a cornerback at the combine, and he was the 110 meter hurdles national champion in high school. And, hardly a workout warrior, four year starter for Auburn (and played in a National Championship game against Florida State), selected on the coaches all-SEC team, which is no joke. So: great on special teams, super-fast, and super productive in college. What is not to like? Well, his height, 5' 8 1/2 ". It would be great if he was four inches taller, but then he would hardly been undrafted and available of the Patriots to poach.
