Basham evaluation against Jets

[Ethan in Cleveland]

From what I saw Basham barely saw the field. I think he got a few reps at DE in the fourth quarter.  Butler, Phillips, and Oliver took the majority of the DT snaps. Obada and Epenesa were on the field quite a bit.  Basham looks stocky (I’m trying to be kind but he looks thick around the waist) and slow. Doesn’t look like a NFL 4-3 DE. 
Did I miss anything?

So where’s the evaluation other than him being fat and slow?

[Virgil]

What was your evaluation of him destroying their rb in the backfield in the 4th?

What are you implying he has to actually watch him play to evaluate him, that is madness sir.

This is why I come to TBD for this type of in depth analysis

I think if you are finely tuned, you will likely see this as some thinly veiled Beane bashing.  We have a position with serious depth, but one that needs to get younger and cheaper, so that is a bad thing when a new guy isn’t necessarily an instant star. Yes, somewhat confusing.  Having a lot of talent and not being desperate to stick new guys in before they are ready is now a bad thing. 

 

I know, it takes some getting used to, but that’s what you get for expecting serious analysis. We mostly get……..this.    🤷‍♀️

So he’s fat… that’s your evaluation?  I saw him make a few tackles toward the end of the game - including one for a loss

[EmotionallyUnstable]

Only time I really noticed him was on the TFL with the cheap 15 yard unsportsmanlike penalty on AJE which was so ticky tack

You're just as bad at evaluating football talent as you are at diagnosing foot injuries, "doctor".

[The Jokeman]

He's a depth DE at this point. With Hughes and Addison both UFAs after this season he's in develop mode aka AJ E was last year.

I think when people say ”player evaluation” this is typically not what they mean.

That was a fierce hit!! 

[YoloinOhio]

Your evaluation is … based on judging his body? Is this sorority rush week? Maybe circle his “problem areas” and then circle back

Exactly.  We don't necessarily need him this year anyway. But he has flashed some nice play. I'm waiting til 2023 to label him a bust. 

Addison/Hughes aren't going to be around much longer.

McD with his rotations, the pick makes sense. Let's see how he develops!

Ethan really on here attempting to fat shame Boogie after destroying a division opponent, I love this place

Other than the fact that this isn’t an evaluation of basham?

Yes - where is the evaluation? 

[Ethan in Cleveland]

I legit wanted to see if I missed him on the field earlier in the game. I thought he would get a decent amount of snaps at DT. 

Look at him and compare him to Hughes, Rousseau, Addison, and Epenesa. Basham has a completely different body type. 

I wanted to see him get more plays to see what he can do. Can't criticize a guy positively or negatively until they let him play.

Considering the posters history.. Exactly.
