BenchBledsoe Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 I'm everyone's favorite poster! Your optimism is amazing. Are you for real? You like the 3rd CB pick?
Pete Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 "You can never have too many corners." The Giants say "You can never have too many pass rushers."
Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted April 27, 2008 Author Posted April 27, 2008 Your optimism is amazing. Are you for real? You like the 3rd CB pick? More depth AND can be used for ST. We needed to rebuild our ST after all the players we lost from that unit (Ex. Aiken, Wire....).
otisly00 Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 he wont make the roster. where is our LB/DE depth? I'd rather not see Ellison or Digorgio see the field again
Brandon Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Potential special teamer or practice squad body. Not much info out there about him. His pro day workout: "ran the 40-yard dash in 4.45 seconds, the short shuttle in 4.14 seconds and the three-cone drill in 6.81 seconds. He measured a 38-inch vertical jump, a 10-foot-8 broad jump and completed 17 repetitions on the 225-pound bench press." http://www.kffl.com/player/19449/NFL Those definitely aren't practice squad type workout numbers for a guy 6'1 195lbs...
Whites Bay Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 More depth AND can be used for ST. We needed to rebuild our ST after all the players we lost from that unit (Ex. Aiken, Wire....). The young man has nailed it here, ladies and gentlemen. We've all become used to great returns and great tackles. Short fields for us and long fields for the opponent. That comes at a price, and that price has been a lot of people who are no longer here. Stop thinking "camp meat", and start thinking about reloading the gun.
Golden Wheels Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Those definitely aren't practice squad type workout numbers for a guy 6'1 195lbs... It's odd though that I can't find any positive information that relates to his game intelligence. If you do, let me know. For all we know he is a workout stud, but what about game days?
MattM Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 We will go with a 1st round safety. Bet on it. As long as it's with the number 32 pick, I won't mind....
Acantha Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 he wont make the roster. where is our LB/DE depth? I'd rather not see Ellison or Digorgio see the field again Well, we did actually draft a LB and DE, depth type players. So....
Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted April 27, 2008 Author Posted April 27, 2008 Well, we did actually draft a LB and DE, depth type players. So.... He'll make the team. Practice squad for sure.
texasjute Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 From Ourlads: "Two-year starter. Cover-2 corner that is strong enough to reroute receivers. Can stick his foot in the ground and break quickly on the ball. Has good short area quickness. Experienced in both bump and off cover-two coverage. Had a good week of practice and a good game in the Hula Bowl. Has some catch-up and recovery speed. Good hands to pluck a ball. Competitive and tough on the field. He will get a strong look at corner before he moves inside to safety for some teams. Needs some technique work, but has some talent and size. Durable over his career. Seventh round/priority free agent." Of course I have no idea, but I gotta think that at least one of these CB picks is slated for S depth. And, what's not to like about a guy that can stick his foot in the ground?
BrooklynBills Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Say good bye Youboty. Take Jim Leonhard with you.
Orton's Arm Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 ... 3 corners? Wow. My head, it has three corners Three corners has my head And if it had three corners It would not be my head
Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted April 28, 2008 Author Posted April 28, 2008 Take Jim Leonhard with you. Jim Leonard is a good back up safety. Remember what he did last year when he started. He was good.
BRH Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 My head, it has three cornersThree corners has my head And if it had three corners It would not be my head That's your HAT, not your head. I hope.
Sen. John Blutarsky Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Jim Leonard is a good back up safety. Remember what he did last year when he started. He was good. What Jim Leonhard did was admirable but pretty far from good. We all like him but he's too small and too slow. He's definetly upgradeable. i dunno if this kid has the coconut for safety but I definetly agree that one of the CBs we drafted is going to saftey and it's probably not McKelvin. Our safety depth is pretty scary right now with Jim Leonhard (small and slow), George Wilson (zip tackling, none, zero) and John Wendling (so impressive that they tolerated Big Whiffin' George Wilson for most of the season) Forgetting the fact that it's the 7th round here. You take the best player you have on the board and see what he's got. if he's good you make room, if not you don't lose much.
