So we cut Marlon Favorite and kept Hilee Taylor?

I think we all fell in love with Favorite and J. Leman because this happens every preseason. It's obvious the coaching staff wasn't high on either of them and now I feel better about the DT situation than ever before.

Good point. A lot of fans fell in love with Taye Biddle too, and some of them were seriously afraid that cutting him would come back to haunt us. The same thing happened with "the predator", but when all was said and done, he went hungry because he could never catch his prey. He was a really loud barker though.

Hell, a lot of fans fell in love with Beavers before they ever even saw him play...why, I have no idea. Personally, I don't want a 160lb punt returner who is gonna fumble the damn ball the first time he takes a good lick.

You're right, if happens every single year and this year is actually the worst, IMO. There are too many nuts on this board that fall in love with a name or a 40 time.

Yeah I do but I'm tired of people acting like Hilee Taylor is a bum, there is a reason we kept him last season and that's the same reason we kept him again this season. He's got the potential to be a very good DE once Peppers and Brayton are gone.

UNC talent is nowhere near SEC talent. Not even close.

Taylor played well when he got his chances, we was a constant menace in the backfield on passing downs, why would we cut him? Especially now that he seems ideally suited for Meeks' system of smaller, faster DE's.

I was glad to see him make the roster as it gives us another pass rusher AND ST'er.

After watching our last preseason game, the future is looking bright for our pass rush :party:

Yeah you're right... Julius Peppers, Greg Ellis, Jeff Saturday, Dre Bly, Alge Crumpler, Kevin Donnalley, Ebenezer Ekuban, Madison Hedgecock, Vonnie Holliday, Natrone Means, Willie Parker, not to mention HOF Lawrence Taylor.

What scrubs those bastards are...

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By Navy_football · Posted

      It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly.

      Should Dave Canalas be on the HOT seat??

      If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
