    Well, if we play Oakland and their stadiums is done in 2020, how cool would it be to make a weekend in Vegas.  If anyone decides later they are going, we should send PM’s to each other and catch up for some fun together.  I’m guessing a lot of fans would go.  I know if work doesn’t interfere, I am going to go, and maybe take my oldest son as he’ll be 21 by then.  I know we’re thinking 2019, but how cool to be in the new Vegas Stadium, and enjoy all of the distractions.

    Go to moon doggies/naked city pizza for some suicide fries and fantastic pizza! Fun times

  2. We had John Miller, Russell Bodine, Vlad Ducasse, Jordan Mills, Charles Clay, and K. Benjamin starting... add in Juan Castillo as O-line coach. Wow, that could be the worst offensive line ever assembled.  I can’t wait to see Josh Allen and our RBs behind this new and improved O-line! 

     

    Go Bills!

  3. Maybe he can be our Cameron Wake, Doug Flutie, Warren Moon, etc... or maybe he can be a solid #3 WR... or maybe our other WRs outplay him. Either way, I do really like bringing in a guy who can play with something to prove. This guy will bring an intensity and competition needed for our young players to follow. Even if he doesn’t make the team, this was a great addition.

  4. NFL Draft Diamonds Scouting Report: Abraham Wallace, DB, West Alabama by Brandon Davis

    Name: Abraham Wallace

    Height: 6’0”

    Weight: 190 lbs.

    Position: Nickel CB/Safety

    Draft Class: 2019

    College: West Alabama (2018), Texas Tech (2017), LSU (2014-2016)

    Hometown: Baton Rouge, LA

    Projected 40 Yd Dash: 4.48 secs.

    High School: Dunham School

    Games Watched: 2018 Highlights

    2018 Stats (West Alabama): 12 GP, 60 Tackles, 7.5 TFL, 0.5 Sack, 1 FF, 2 INT, 1 QBH, 8 BRUP

    2017 Stats (Texas Tech): 3 GP, 1 Tackle

    2016 Stats (LSU): 7 GP, 1 Tackle

    2015 Stats (LSU): No Stats

    2014 Stats (LSU): DNP (Redshirted)

    Positives: Good height & frame at DB with okay arm length. Shows good AA, decent footspeed, and competitiveness from both the Nickel CB & Safety positions. Displays good mental processing skills from the Nickel CB position &leverage to diagnose & fight through blocks to stop bubble screens &flare routes to the flats. Breaks on the ball well while in zone coverage against curls & crossing routes. Demonstrates some hand/eye coordination ability to haul in a tipped pass. Can provide run support from multiple spots,including the edge. Is quick in pursuit off the edge to stop HB Dives, and uses leverage to set the edge & stop off-tackle runs. Is alert & quick to run downhill from the Safety spot to fill gaps. Has okay wrap-up skills when tackling. Can also play as a gunner on punt coverage.

    Negatives: Plays abit high in his back pedal, has stiff hips which limits his COD skills. Onlyshows marginal trail technique ability in man coverage. Can let a WR get behindhimwhile playing the Nickel CB position when defending the deep ball in man coverage. Tends to aim high near the neck/shoulders or down at a ball carrier’sfeet when tackling despite his wrap-up skills.

    Summary: A participant on special teams at LSU under Ed Orgeron & at Texas Tech under then head coach Kliff Kingsbury before being a starter in 2018 at West Alabama under head coach Brett Gilliland & defensive coordinator Steve Sisa. Was used in multiple position in West Alabama’s 4-2-5 scheme. Wallace relies on mental processing, quickness, and pursuit skills to make plays in zone coverage & against the run, but plays with a high back pedal and stiff hips. Can be a liability against speed WR’s in man coverage from the Nickel CB position. Will be a good contributor on special teams while improving his man coverage & COD skills as a Nickel CB

  5. This kid is one of our UDFA, and I really like the way he gets through traffic to find the ball carrier. I think he’s a long shot to make the final roster, but I would not be surprised to see him on the practice squad, or being a special teamer.

    Yea, numbers are for nerds. Facts just get in the way of the tried and true ol' eyeball test.

    Yeah, because Tebow is working on his 5th Super Bowl because his stats say so! Those perennial pro-bowler QBs from Hawaii, Oklahoma St., and Washington State are killing right now in the NFL with all their stats they accumulated in college. Stats stats stats!
