r00tabaga Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 McDermott was a hot mess as DC in Philadelphia. Absolutely terrible. Belichick was bad with the Browns and Levy was bad with the Chiefs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris heff Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 (edited) Belichick was bad with the Browns and Levy was bad with the Chiefs. Both of those are examples of failure as first time HCs, by that standard McDermott will have success in his next HC job.

BringBackFergy Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Prediction: Bellichick replaces Brissett with Matt Barkley and then trades him to the Jets for next year's 2nd round pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roundybout Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 This is false. He was a lukewarm candidate at best. One more year of Carolina missing the playoffs and he'd have been on a hotseat as a DC again rather than getting tepid interest as a HC candidate. Chargers and Broncos both flew out of their way to interview him. Also, would you rather have LynnSanity? A Rex-era holdover? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's No Moon Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 lol no he wasn't. Uhm. OK. I live in Philly. I watched it first hand, but if that's not good enough here you go. Eagles went from 9th and 4th in defense in 2007-08 under Jim Johnson to 19th and 22nd under McDermott in 2009-10. In his final season the Eagles allowed a team record 31 TD passes and were dead last in the league in red-zone defense in what was the worst red-zone defense since 1998. He was a mess. The defense, which had been excellent, completely fell apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAJBobby Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 (edited) @FieldYates The Bills claimed OT Conor McDermott off of waivers from the Patriots, per league source. Former UCLA OT. ANALYSIS Strengths Towering left tackle. Has experience in a pro-style attack. Gets into kick-slide without much laboring. Decent pass-slide quickness. Decent hand readiness. In run game, comes off ball with flat back and uncorks his hips into target. Generates some pop with his initial contact as run blocker. Has some redirect power to stuff stunts inside. Solid cut-blocker. Athletic feet with rare background. Was finalist for McDonald's High School All-American team as a senior basketball player and won Mr. Basketball for Division II-AA in Tennessee. Weaknesses Very little bubble with below-average leg thickness. Plays too upright and with some stiff-leggedness. Lack of bend affects his ability to change direction. Hit-or-miss connection percentage on second level. Core strength is well-below desired NFL level. Bull-rushers can put him on skates and roll him back into the quarterback. Operates with weak punch in pass sets. Rare to find him land hands inside defender's frame on consecutive snaps. Doesn't trust his own foot quickness. Opens way too early in pass sets. Over-sets in race to the edge, allowing defenders to beat him inside or knock him off-balance with an inside club move. Draft Projection Round 7 Sources Tell Us "Just not strong enough to play in our league. Unless he finds more core (strength), I can't see him being able to survive against power." -- AFC South scout Bottom Line McDermott's impressive high school resume is usually an attention-grabber for NFL offensive line coaches looking for athletes. However, his lack of functional core strength is a debilitating weakness that could make it tough for him to maintain an NFL career. McDermott's size will likely get him drafted, but there are quite a few holes in his game that are in desperate need of work. -Lance Zierlein Edited September 3, 2017 by MAJBobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
