Cover 1 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 (edited) Not sure if you guys had a chance to dig into the type of player Eric Striker is or what he will bring but if you haven't give this a look, you will definitely root for the kid. http://www.cover1.net/2016/06/cover-1-film-room-eric-strikers-role/ Edited June 4, 2016 by TurnerE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transient Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Even though he's got more guts in his little finger than most of us do in our intestines, including the colon, I'm not sure he's ever really gotten over what happened at Macho Grande.

Mark Vader Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Yikes! He had Kouandjio for breakfast, lunch and dinner in that game. Right now he looks like nothing more than a situational pass rusher, but he could also be useful in coverage. He could also make a mark on Special Teams.

machine gun kelly Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 I guessed I picked a bad week to stop sniffing glue. Sorry, just wanted to get into the Airplane talk.

Fadingpain Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Striker flew single engine fighters in the Air Force, but now he is going to have to pilot a plane with four engines. He's made mistakes in the past. If we take into account the passing of Lt. Zip, seven men have died because of Striker's mistake. The real question is whether or not he can fly this plane, and land it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 (edited) hard to understand how the kid can be so good given his measurables.

#34fan Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 I have a sickening feelin that Ryan bros. Barnum and Bailey circus is going to cut him... I hope I'm wrong, but don't see a passrusher that small as their type of player... Too bad, because I happen to think he's a special player.

Marty McFly Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 definitely hope this kid makes his mark and gets on the roster. yeah I think making the team on STs, and like the other posters said, slowly working his way into sub packages would be the opportunity for him to make his mark.

Delusional Bills Optimist Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 I think it all depends on if he makes plays in camp. A guy like this has to do it twice as good as the next guy One thing is for certain: He's gonna have to pull that lever panel off, just riiiiip it off. Then, he's gotta find a piece of metal, and shove it in there. Any piece of metal will do. But he's definitely gotta cut the bleeding heart crap. I mean, Whaley and the Brothers Ryan have all got their switches, lights and knobs to deal with. At OBD, there are literally hundreds and thousands of blinking, beeping and flashing lights. Blinking, and beeping and flashing. THEY'RE FLASHING AND THEY'RE BEEPING. THEY CAN'T STAND IT ANYMORE! THEY'RE BLINKING AND BEEPING AND FLASHING!!! WHY DOESN'T SOMEBODY PULL THE PLUG!?!

thebandit27 Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Love this kid. I don't know that he'll ever be an every-down player, but I do think he'll eventually be a contributor both on the EDGE and as a Will. Side note: he's got a plaque hanging in his locker that reads: "Expect nothing, Keep sweating." I'm going to cheer really hard for this kid to make it.

Luxy312 Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 His quickness is what catches my eye. He's basically the size of a safety. Hard to get hands on him when he's in space. When all is said and done, I'm not rooting for him or against him. I just want to see guys on the field that can play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockinon Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 This kid belongs on the outside. He consistently gets to the QB very quickly. He also is very good at dropping into coverage. Biggest downside is size. He is not going to be a big factor on running plays if he asked to set the edge. More of a speedster and can chase down a ball carrier. If he can stay healthy, there is no doubt that he will be extremely productive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
