He reminds me very much of when Mike Tomlin was hired by Pittsburgh. If you recall, Tomlin was a green behind the ears coach with a lot of energy who dcoordinated a top notch defense(Minnesota). A lot of people thought Tomlin was just the Rooney Rule guy for the Steelers and not a serious candidate then everyone was shocked when he was hired
None. I've always been a believer that when you get to the pros, you either have it or you don't as a player. Most NFL teams run variations of the same playbook, teach the same concepts, and go over the same drills. I'm not saying that players don't get better or worse but I think it has more to do with player repitition and learning as the game slows for them. I think that coaching has very little effect besides concepts. Just my opinion
I think the Taylor missed throw to Harvin was due to the DE on the edge and Taylors lack of height. Since Taylor is so short he had to throw it around the DE instead of being able to throw it over him which caused it to go wide
Except, it's not fool proof. Manufacturing noise during a play in a game is illegal and would result in fines, loss of draft picks, and delay of game penalties.
Yes, I know your half joking but I have also seen this 5 times already
Wilder was actually kind of a bust at FSU until his senior year. He runs really upright and doesn't always run as tough as his size. With that said if he is a roster guy he would prob be really good at STs.
Don't be sure on Davonte Allen yet. That site says he signed with the Bills but another site says he signed with the Eagles.
We have apparently signed Keith Lumpkin OT from Rutgers but it hasnt been updated yet.
I actually think that Gronk has a great chance to be a Practice Squad guy this year and make the roster next year. I think he can fit the TE role as a depth guy(Roman likes 4 TE's) and he can play the FB role which makes him versatile and can take up two positions with one roster spot. Gotta remember that Felton is making a lot of money for a FB and he wasn't very good at all last year.
Apparently Jeremy Cash is negotiating with a bunch of teams right now which is the reason why he hasnt signed...For all you Cash fans out there. This UDFA kind of reminds me of when the Bills won the UDFA war with DaRick Rogers.
