Just imagine if we still had Munnerlyn trying to cover Mike Evans...glad we have some guys capable of matching up size wise.

Well, since he was too short to cover Evans, we could always move him to cover Vincent Jackson instead!

That's the trend in the NFL.  WRs keep getting bigger and it's going to take bigger CBs to match up with them.  The Bucs are going to have three WRs who are 6'5".  The Falcons have 6'3" Julio Jones.  The Saints currently have 4 WRs who are 6'3"+ on their roster.  We added 6'5" Kelvin Benjamin in the draft.  With the way pass interference is called these days, small DBs just don't stand a chance against these monsters in jump ball situations.

As i recall he actually did pretty well against him last year.

I don't remember him getting beat now that you mention it. But I also don't remember how many plays he was on Jackson one on one for.

Losing Captain bumped up our average height.

 

"Losing" Munnerlyn.............................

 

 

 

 

....OK.  I stopped laughing long enough to both agree with your premise and go back to laughing about what it means to "lose" a Munnerlyn.

 

 

I've said it before, I will say it again...I wish DG was our GM and 50 something rather than 60 something.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
