The Byrd hype may be real, but I'm not so sure about his chances of making the roster...

Don't get me wrong... I would love for him to make it, for himself and for us... But if we take 5 WRs I really think he won't be one of them.

I'd specifically like to farm Tampa or Atlanta for any talent they might have. Like Delaire last year, it's a little more fun when we use our little brother's own hand to slap him in the face.

 

Stop hitting yourself. Stop hitting yourself.

Yeah, for DG to say he loves Hog Mollies so much.  He truly has ignored the DE position immensely the past couple of years.  Besides the obvious trade halfway through the season for Jared Allen.  The DE position (besides in the Super Bowl) has been borderline shitty for the most part.  

He drafted Ealy in the 2nd in 2014....

 

Do you guys think that DE's grow on trees?  There is a reason that Tampa, NO, and ATL have struggled to get pass rush help the last few years.

Positions that we have a top 5-10 unit.

 

QB

LB

DT

WR

TE

G/C

We have a ton of talent here, but you won't be able to fill every single hole.  While I do worry about our DE's and T's..it's just the way the game is.

Honestly, we're not that bad off at DE. We have CJ, Ealy and Addison who are proven and solid. All we really need to do is find one more decent back up pass rusher and we will be fine. IMO, Gettleman had the right idea going after another interior pass rusher in Vernon Butler because the shortest route to the QB is right up the middle.

Not only that 4-3 DE are harder to find.

I'm not concerned about our DE. How many teams can say they have 3 DE that can get 7 plus sacks a season. I'm still holding out hope for delaire. I'm not going to bash him for one pre season game.

It's far more than one preseason game.  He's an UDFA from Towson who only flashed in one game period.  I have seen him out of uniform and can tell you he simply doesn't look like an NFL DE, in or out of uniform.  GMan said Butler was a whole lotta man.  Think the opposite of Ryan.  I wish him best of luck in future endeavors, but he needs to go.

      Ideas on how to find a pass rush

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      I'm not sure how much I'm changing mid year, especially when we are seeing some success.    Most Pass Rushers are physically gifted. Scheme and personnel help, but you gotta have the Jimmys and Joes, especially at that position.    We will likely lose games when the other team can throw for 400 yards, and has multiple high level receivers, but I think at this point in the development of our franchise, we have to be ok with that. You can't address every single issue at once. Really looks like we have plugged some holes on offense, and definitely in run defense. In the next draft, if we hit on a CB, an ILB and a Pass rusher, we will be pretty dangerous.

      Week 6 PFF grades vs. DAL

      By Icege · Posted

      His route running was not very good in this game, especially when compared to the previous week. There were at least three playactions ran where I couldn't tell if he was going to be pass blocking or running a route with how little effort he ran with. They also dinged him for the fumble on the play where XL lateraled to him. 29.8 fumble grade, 6.1 pass block grade, and 40.0 receiving grade really hurt his overall score. Personally, I'd have put him in the mid-to-high 70s on the day. I don't think his receiving grade should've been 40.0 but can see an argument for in the 50s. Maybe his pass blocking grade could've also been in the teens since he did win on the final rep handily.   Just re-watched the receiving TD for Rico and it was a hideous route. DaRon Bland left his zone to cover over top of TMac though which left the area wide open for Rico to get to. Very surprised that they gave Bland a 66.5 coverage grade as I recall him getting picked on a couple of times (and giving up the 4th down throw to Renfrow by giving an incredibly soft cushion).
