And the first time he touched it he dropped it. He looked good overall though. Shady scores on two of the four carries imo. 

I think DS just got used to those jukes working on 95% of college players and figured that was more of a sure thing than outrunning the defender to the corner.  Rookie debut jitters I guess.

Under what circumstances is he supposed to let that guy have a free shot at QB?

 

Under 100 different circumstances depending on the play call... Free releases happen all the time, especially with TE's. He ran out into a route, and it's possible that his progression called for a chip, but it's just as likely that he wasn't supposed to chip the end.

Thank you for this.

 

Oliver made an impact today, even though it doesn't look like it from a statistical viewpoint.

 

Now, can we please not have him drop back into pass coverage again?

A look at all of the McDermott/Beane draft picks and UDFA pickups:

 

Good first week for the 2019 draft class:

 

1. Oliver and Singletary were very good

2. Sweeney performed when called on (2 catches, couldn't tell you on his blocking)

3. Knox not a factor but no negatives

4. Ford struggled

5. D. Johnson in the DE rotation

 

2018 draft class:

1. Allen up and down but comes through in the end

2. Edmunds - very good game

3. H. Phillips - in rotation acquitted himself well

4. T. Johnson - really good game but got hurt again

5. L Wallace had a very good game

6. S. Neal - solid made a few good plays though had 1-2 shaky ones

7. Foster - nothing

 

2017 draft class

1. T. White - must have had a very good game they didn't throw much at him

2. Z. Jones - nothing spectacular but made the catches when thrown to 

3. D. Dawkins - Looked bad on the one play but overall pretty solid

4. M. Milano - Great game

 

To have 15 players from the last 3 drafts (plus a couple UDFAs) contribute and overall be very good except Ford is very encouraging and really starts to establish a good foundation for the team.

Nice game by Sweeney.  35 yards and showed really good drive blocking on a Singletary run.  

 

Knox:  1 yard.  Nothing to report in terms of blocking. 

 

Oliver: 2 tackles.  I'll take it. 

 

Ford:  Struggled. 

 

Uh what about Singletary?
