Tipster19 Posted April 26, 2005 Posted April 26, 2005 We had a Bermuda Triangle back in the 80's on defense, now we got one on offense. With these threats it's a 3 point danger zone.
MrLocke Posted April 26, 2005 Posted April 26, 2005 Now that I have had a chance to calm down after the draft I have a question for those College football buffs about Everett. How good do you think he can be? I know he hasn't prooven anything in the NFL yet but I expect him to and that is Kellen Winslow Jr. Do you think Everett could be as good as say Shockey, Tony Gonzalez, Jason Witten, Kellen Winslow jr. in time? I know that is asking alot of Everett to be as good as those guys I am just curious.
Phlegm Alley Posted April 26, 2005 Posted April 26, 2005 I'm starting to think that TD is surrounding WM with all of his boyz so WM will be more apt to re-sign if he has old teammates around him.

The U produces good TE, good CB, and good RB With that said, I could see him being like a Freddie Jones or a Marcus Pollard but that doesn't rule out the possibility of becoming a TE that is mentioned in the "elite" class of TE.

All Everett will need to do is run his mouth off about how great he is and fracture his fibula in the second game.
John from Riverside Posted April 26, 2005 Posted April 26, 2005 This is the thing about Everett..... It is a given that he is a pass catching weapon.....his speed and ability to get downfield are very underated.....keep in mind that he is still pretty new to the position (I think he is a former DE) I noticed that he has a swim move that he uses that DE's learn to use on the line to get separation..... This makes him a Antonio Gates type player.....NOW....what makes him possibly a special player is the fact that this guy can block...and I am not talking about a wall off blocker like Campbell or a guy who tries hard but is undersized like Euhus.....this guys delivers KNOCKDOWN BLOCKS...... He is going to be a starter on our team very very soon.........

I am sure that others have said as much. The only thing I am worried about is that the tight end was never highly involved in the passing game during his time in Pittsburgh. Perhaps this was only because of a lack of talent at the position given that Pittsburgh used its first round pick on a tight end.
Dennis in NC Posted April 26, 2005 Posted April 26, 2005 Another point here is that Mularkey & Co. seem unafraid to let rookies and other young guys play! So, even though Everett may be considered "raw", he will likely be given every opportunity to learn and soon contribute. Likewise with Roscoe, who at least has like 3 yrs as a starter (or as a contributor). I think it's a very exciting pair of new offensive weapons.
Tipster19 Posted April 26, 2005 Author Posted April 26, 2005 I'm anxious to see what the "experts" have to say, oh by the 8th game into the season. This will be an exciting offense to watch!
