He struggles with the mental aspect....
I think winovich replaces van noy.Jennings will be the new Van Noy and Uche the new Collins.
They're different players, with different responsibilities....Bentley will get a lot of Collins snaps too.
No 2 players are the same.They're different players, with different responsibilities.
I wouldn't say on-field burst and measurable athleticism are synonymous. Maybe they think he has a lot of raw talent but it didn't show on tape with respect to burst. The most concerning thing to me in that write up was that vague third of a sentence claiming he couldn't play the run.
Path to Pats for versatile Michigan LB Josh Uche began with Belichick recommendation – Boston Herald
"According to a league source, had the Patriots failed to trade up for Uche, he would have been taken by one of the teams that owned the next three picks after 60th overall; the Titans, Packers or Chiefs."
How can this be? I was assured by multiple Patsfans.com members that Uche was example of Belichick reaching again for a player that would have otherwise been drafted in the third round and those people are never wrong (just ask them). They don't need evidence or sources, they just KNOW that their views are facts. To borrow from George Costanza....It's not total bullsh*t, if you believe it.

My favorite counter example: Tom Brady would certainly have been a reach if he were picked in (say) the 4th round of the 2000 draft, because we know he was available at 199.
Wrong, but thanks for playing...Please collect your parting gifts on the way out...I particularly love the argument that even if a "reach" works out it doesn't excuse the loss in draft position the imagined later but optimal pick would have saved.

Really? And maybe we could have had him for a 7th.
I believe belichick is quoted as saying that if they knew brady would be brady they would have taken him in the first roundYep we're all doing lots of wishful thinking, positive and negative. Hypotheticals about where someone would have been taken later are particularly fun because they're nearly totally speculative and hence provide enormous room for argument and trolling.

Thought this breakdown of Uche from Dan Hatman was excellent...
