Rookie Roundup

Good info. When they evaluate this draft class in a few years, I think Butler may end up looking like a steal- maybe Bradberry too. I can't wait until they start popping some pads so we can see what the hitters have.

Bradberry is freaky athletic. Reminds me of a cb version of Funchess.

His arms look as big (and nearly as long) as his legs, and that's not a knock on his legs. With him, I think an 'arm tackle' will be good enough.

I'm extremely excited about Butler. Seriously, I've got a boner just thinking about our interior.

I think Vern is going to be great but am more excited about Bradberry and Worley.  I think Bradberry will have a learning curve and will likely catch a lot of grief here but he seems to be a baller.

Wonder how Bradberry ended up at Sanford? Late bloomer maybe?

Transferred from Arkansas St. because they wanted him to play safety, Samford allowed him to play corner, and the rest is history. 

Similar deal with Sandland was at Miami, and transferred to Montana St.

Sandland seems kind of big for a safety. I'd say Miami was off base with that move.

 

.... just kidding. Unlike Bradberry, Beau was solid at his chosen position, just wasn't getting enough playing time.

    • Bryce and Dave will determine how many games this team wins next year. It’s not on the WRs. The RBs. LBs. This is about 2 things: 1. Can Bryce continue to come up big in the few key downs that decide most games?  2. Can Canales evolve his play calling to counter punch like the big boys do. Half time adjustments.  teams that score 30+ points on the regular win more games than not. That’s on Bryce and Dave. The offense is top 10 at every position group, save for TE and QB. A baller TE is gravy but not crucial when the receivers are dudes.  The defense is the defense. It’ll be better this season, hopefully by a large margin, but Dave/Bryce is really where it’s at. 
    • Normally I'd wholeheartedly agree with this. But I feel like teams figured out this offense after the Raiders game. Bryce was so inept the first 2 games that we couldn't really even run the offense. Dalton's first game showed what we had. But after that game, coverages got a lot tighter and windows were smaller. When Bryce came back in, his ability to extend plays made a big difference. It's really difficult to stop a QB that can beat/escape 1on1 tacklers. It puts a lot of pressure on the defense when you blitz. And he was completing throws in tight coverage with anticipation. Point being Bryce wasn't throwing to wide open receivers that were schemed open by the offense. Occasionally yes. But not often. 
    • With the additions we've made to our roster combined with the state of the division and the conference as a whole there is no excuse for this team not to make a legitimate push for 8-9 wins. Anything less is honestly inexcusable. There will be no more free passes for being a doormat in this iteration of the league where even mediocre teams are competing for playoff spots.
