We heard that Solder and Chandler Jones weren't ready too contribute day 1 but they were (I know their situations were not injury related). Pretty much every player we have taken in the 1st round has seen significant snaps as a rookie. I expect Easley to continue this trend and I'm optimistic...
Our 5th skill position player is our weakest starter. We know Amendola, Thompkins, Ridley and a TE will start. Whoever that 5th guy is (Dobson, another TE, Vereen?) will be the weak link.
Next weakest starter is the safety next to McCourty. Third weakest link is our coverage LB next to Mayo.
I disagree that 4 CBs is enough. The Patriots' 3rd CB is a starter since we play more 6 man fronts than 7 man fronts (IIRC). That being the case 1 CB is not sufficient to back up 3 starters.
Now due to salary cap and available talent the 5th CB is normally a ST only player pretending to play...
Well we fundamentally disagree on the issue then. Murder and rape should be two crimes that supersede previous legal obligations. I understand this is somewhat unrealistic however I believe our (America's) judicial system / society is waaaaay to lenient with these criminals. Murderers and rapist...
I’m glad BSR is asking questions and is unhappy with the NFLPA. I understand that legally the NFLPA must represent Hernandez. However, the question I have for all those defending the NFLPA is at what point does morality take precedence over legal obligations? From reading this thread it appears...
Does anybody know why McCourty has been wearing the red jersey?
To anybody who has been at practice, how does Devin look? Does he look limited in any way?
1. You already know the answer so I'm not sure why your asking but as was stated in the first 25 posts of the thread it's b/c the rookies are looking great.
2. First 25 posts - our rookies look great! Hooray!
Your post - we made some terrible FA signings at the WR position.
Can we keep this thread about the current WRs / TEs and not about BB's ability as a GM? We've talked enough about BB the GM on this board.
The starters are not yet set in stone. Right now we have:
1. Amendola
2. Thompkins
3. Dobson
4. Boyce
5. Edelman
It would not surprise me if...
Good rant but it won't resonate with the people you're talking about. Some people aren't happy unless they have something to complain about. Their loss.
I'm excited to watch football for the first time since the SB. I'm so football starved I don't care that these games don't count. Here's what I'll be looking for:
1. Chandler Jones - we really need him to become a force as a pass rusher to open thigs up for our other rushers. He was good last...
Last year we used (2) 300 lb DT's with Nink and Jones at DE. Despite the drop off in size our run D did not take a hit. This year Nink will start again as I don't see who would represent an upgrade. The days of using (3) 300 lb DL are over unless one of those guys can offer significant pass rush...
18.3 attemps in that range is too low. The personnel at WR was likely the reason we took so few attempts. This off season we have upgrade speed and size at the WR position while sacrificing experience. It may take some time but I think by the playoffs our offense will look a lot different than...
The thing that stood out to me was his pursuit, he covers a lot of ground quickly and doesn't give up on the play. As you said he has a great motor. I also agree about his savyness, always seemed to be around the ball / know where the ball was. I didn't think his first step was that great but...
