The Tolbert Effect

Going back to the beginning of last season, our record with Tolbert on the field is 14-2

Without him? 1-6-1

Coincidence or contribution?

I think his value to the team is one of the most underrated aspects of the team. Blocking, catching out of the backfield, goaline TDs and getting first downs on 3rd and short. 

Something to consider as he approaches free agency this offseason

Coincidence ... Tobert does NOT block .. not once have I seen him lay out a linebacker or make room for Stew behind him .. He may have his occasional catch here or 2 yard run there but its all shade IMO.  Ward would/should have taken his spot on the roster but for some reason the dancing bear is still dancing

I think we just need a younger power RB. Another Stewart.

Tolbert plays around 30% of the snaps a given week.   He is a nice ultility HB but we just need youth there.  Can't ask him to hold up at his age being that

We will eventually, next year or the year after.  But Tolbert is ok for the role he is playing right now.  He doesn't have that much mileage on him for a back his age.

      As long as we have DB, odd man fronts are the way to go for us. We want to line DB up between the guard and tackle (4i-tech) because of how quick he is off the snap and his punch on the guard off the snap. If anyone is wondering why he pretty much has to be doubled (or combo blocked) just about every snap, its because he is lined up in that spot in our odd man front. If we change to an even front, it becomes a lot harder to have DB play the 4i-tech.  Not sure if I would say Evero likes smaller NTs - I wouldn't call Bobby Brown a small NT by any sense. I think we run a 1-tech NT, so they are usually getting double teamed (or combo blocked) by concept alone. I actually think Bobby Brown did a pretty good job of eating blocks and being positionally sound on most runs at him (not his fault we were rocking ass LBs last year + Wharton being god awful). The bigger problem came on the toss plays/outside runs where DB wasn't able to blow it up in the backfield (i.e., the Bills game). Lloyd should help with the run D and getting a rangy LB in the draft will definitely help. There are also some good 1-tech DTs (and 0-techs) that can be instant day 1 starters for us in the draft.

      Thanks for bringing receipts. I appreciate the facts, but they are a stark contrast to what we see on the ice, but maybe, as I've said before, his "aw sh!t" moments just seem to weigh heavier than his "attaboy" moments.
