Basham evaluation against Jets


Ethan in Cleveland

Recommended Posts

From what I saw Basham barely saw the field. I think he got a few reps at DE in the fourth quarter.  Butler, Phillips, and Oliver took the majority of the DT snaps. Obada and Epenesa were on the field quite a bit.  Basham looks stocky (I’m trying to be kind but he looks thick around the waist) and slow. Doesn’t look like a NFL 4-3 DE. 
Did I miss anything?

This is why I come to TBD for this type of in depth analysis 

 

I think if you are finely tuned, you will likely see this as some thinly veiled Beane bashing.  We have a position with serious depth, but one that needs to get younger and cheaper, so that is a bad thing when a new guy isn’t necessarily an instant star. Yes, somewhat confusing.  Having a lot of talent and not being desperate to stick new guys in before they are ready is now a bad thing. 

 

I know, it takes some getting used to, but that’s what you get for expecting serious analysis. We mostly get……..this.    🤷‍♀️

You're just as bad at evaluating football talent as you are at diagnosing foot injuries, "doctor".

I think when people say ”player evaluation” this is typically not what they mean.

So he’s fat… that’s your evaluation?  I saw him make a few tackles toward the end of the game - including one for a loss

Exactly.  We don't necessarily need him this year anyway. But he has flashed some nice play. I'm waiting til 2023 to label him a bust. 

Addison/Hughes aren't going to be around much longer.

McD with his rotations, the pick makes sense. Let's see how he develops!

Other than the fact that this isn’t an evaluation of basham?

Yes - where is the evaluation?

I legit wanted to see if I missed him on the field earlier in the game. I thought he would get a decent amount of snaps at DT. 

Look at him and compare him to Hughes, Rousseau, Addison, and Epenesa. Basham has a completely different body type. 

I wanted to see him get more plays to see what he can do. Can't criticize a guy positively or negatively until they let him play.

Considering the posters history.. Exactly.
