Hey, people saying Voth makes poo up, where ya at? I've been hearing echoes all day.

TC reports are great but unless we are there we don't know enough. Like in this article, Bradberry being the #1 is totally news to me. Very interesting.

To be fair,  it isn't number 1 and number 2 as much as it us left and right. Bradberry starts on the left. Worley in the right. I was just meaning who the better cb could be in the long run.

TE Scott Simonson has been getting plenty of reps with the first and second teams, maybe as many as Dickson. This could mean that Dickson and Simonson are in direct competition for that number 2 tight end spot, with the 3rd spot being already claimed by seventh round draft pick Beau Sandland.

Bye bye Dickson

Awesome notes about the back of the roster position battles. I saw Norwood and Byrd mentioned, are they the two closest to that 5th WR spot currently? Also is it a fair to guess that Horton-Miley and Delaire-Cox would be the direct competitions at DE? All I have is pre draft measurements (height, weight, length, etc) to speculate off of but each pairing is very similar in that aspect.

First of all, thanks for doing this. Secondly, can you tell a difference in the athleticism of the CB group now, compared to last year? I don't expect any of them to be more athletic than J-No, but I'm guessing that the overall athleticism has gone up, no?

I could definitely see Dickson getting cut or possibly traded.

he tried to make it sound like the dude tore his ACL again when it wasn't anything serious at all. and then claimed that nobody thinks Hill is good anyways and has no chance (even though he is already an average bubble player anyways). This is the first I've heard of him having a bad day all around so idk where he's getting that or why he would make such a bold statement. 

then I remembered he's a below average media guy that needs clicks.

No he said he's not quite the same WR

I think they are every bit as athletic as J No. Just maybe not as aggressive and competitive. I think the overall athleticism has gone up at the cost of experience.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
