  1. I feel the same way. ***** happens but it just keeps piling on and it’s hard to shrug off. Honestly; it’s less about me than the players going down that bums me out. These guys work so hard and the end result is a messed up body. On the other hand at least you get guys will get a shot.

  2. Folks, there's an article about Bill Belichick and Nick Saban's relationship, really good read from 5-6 years ago maybe, think it was SI.  Anyway, Saban unearthed Daboll and recommended Brian for the job up NE.  Told Belichick, he's one of us, so he had the prodigy label from an early age.  It also helped that he's coached a long time, and coached both sides of the ball, and a few positions.  He's earned his stripes.  I like Daboll, think he's a good coach, but early last season, before the Jets game where Josh banged up his elbow, Allen looked fine without Daboll.

     

    We've had a bunch of turnover on O staff, Tierney was another guy, a guy Daboll brought with him, that Josh liked.  Adjust or die in this league, has to figure it out, football hasn't changed, just needs to stop trying to make the insane plays.  Take the 5 yard hitch or the 4 yards shallow cross, live to fight another down.  

     

    Wish we still had Daboll for the continuity.

  3. White is a consistent underperformer relative to his draft slot, I only bring up his slot because it's all he's living off of.  His NFL production is subpar, good blitzer though.

     

    Edit: ^ You posted those stats right as I hit send.  But at least those "grades" match with my eye test.  Guy can get after the QB, he's quick, but everything else is just nothing to write home about.

  4. Late round.  He's do for a contract, hasn't done much of anything, injured, 3rd day pick.  I mean why is anyone giving you anything for him at this point, based on his Bama days?  He couldn't get together with Wilson, and I know folks feel Wilson is a washed up Diva, but the guy still can get the football to open receivers.  Just not sure what to think about Jeudy, he hasn't do anything in this league.

     

    Most I'd give is a 3rd, I have to pay him and he hasn't proven he can do it.

    I agree with Steve. I see Kevin White when I watch Quentin Johnston. I'd rather try my luck with Cedric Tillman. Get me a WR from the SEC with production

     

    I agree with Steve on everything as well.  Not that I don't like Johnston, but the issues he brought up are clear as day.  His speed isn't always evident, and even when you watch clips of him in that Smith video you see him body catching deep balls, that's awful technique.  You shouldn't allow those balls to get into your chest, attack at the catch point with your hands or a DBs is going to knock your block off and dislodge the ball by letting it get into your body.  It wasn't a long video, but the issues he brought up are there when you watch Johnston, clear as day.

    Poyer is dead to me.

     

    I knew he was a competitor, but I never took him to be a vindictive prima-donna.

    The guy gave us 100%, put his body on the line every damn week.  Deleting some photos doesn't make him a prima donna, he behaved  exactly the opposite all season long, especially when you factor in his injuries and his contract situation.  He can delete whatever he wants, doesn't change what he did for this ball club.  Love the guy.
