7-29 Practice Thread

For Ealy critics--

 

CJ came into his own during his third year.

Hardy came into his own during his third year.

Ealy has not come into his own after his third practice.

 

Yes, Everette Brown was a bust.  He was a bad pick from the outset.  Don't compare the picks of a desperate ex-newspaper reporter to those of Dave Gettlemen.

And also what made the Brown pick even worse was that we traded up for it while Ealy was a good value pick

And i remember CJ doing next to nothing his rookie year, defensive end is a tough position to play as a rookie

We gave away a first rounder to move up in the second, if I remember correctly.   Hurney was desperate and decided a solid strategy was to mortgage next year to save his but at the time.  Unfortunately, his good picks were safe and probably lucky.    Otah, Brown, A. Edwards--he had a good run moving up in the draft.

Yeah I wish Otah was still here and producing like he was.

i thought he had 6 sacks in not much playing time. or was that his second season?

I don't remember Johnson playing at all until Mike Rucker got hurt just before the last game that season. I think you're thinking of his 2nd season.

    • I think we pick it up and then someone else ends up emerging as the QB next year and we end up cutting him in year 5 and eating it.  That would be the most on brand thing to happen.
    • Evero has his faults, but even in that loss, the team only gave up 20 points. Your post gets to the heart of the matter. We are not a talented team on defense at this time. Some of our younger guys may develop w/more playing time, but for now we have no impact players at LB or EDGE. We could really use a ball-hawking S on the back end as well. We have exactly two players that have to be accounted for on every play, D. Brown, and J.Horn. Mike Jackson has been solid. The other starters would probably be backups on most the upper echelon NFL teams. We really can't expect this team to a Top 10 defense with such a lack of talent. All things considered I've been somewhat impressed with how much better they have played this year.   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-points-per-game   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-average-team-passer-rating We are in the top 15 in terms of points allowed per game (22.6) and top 12 in defensive passer rating (88.9). And, we are doing this without a formidable PASS RUSH. Even our rushing defense has improved. We are #16 in rushing yards allowed per game (116) compared to 179 per game last season. https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-rushing-yards-per-game I wouldn't cry if Evero moved on after the season, but his defense isn't the biggest worry for our team.
