Something I've found interesting is the strong play of J. Meyers and T. Hall, respectively. Both players were provided opportunities to play after injuries to the guys in front of them (Harry/Edelman, and Bentley).
As far as I can tell, both have played well, and Hall in particular looks much, much better than Bentley - you're essentially getting much more athleticism and speed without sacrificing anything against the run. This got me thinking about talent evaluation/identification.
What do others think about this? IMHO, coaching and identifying talent, while certainly related in some regards, are also unique in others. I hope the coaching staff uses this as a learning opportunity insofar as talent evaluation and providing opportunities for players is concerned.
