The Boys have not recorded a sack yet this season. I did not watch their first game but saw on Sunday night, they got in the face of Eli often. He impressed with his play but unfortunately do not see Jake stepping up in the pocket or buying much time. Atlanta did bring a few blitzes last game and we held up pretty well, but that scheme is nothing compared to what Ware and them is gonna bring. They seemed to keep the Giants run game in check except for one run by Jacobs. I know they will be hungry, just hope we have a good game plan. One has to come around sooner or later.

Otah will own Spencer, Ware and Spears depending on who he sees. Kalil on Ratlif should be a good battle. Kalil will probably need some help from Wharton and Vincent. Ratlif isn't huge but he's quick. Wharton and Gross should hold their own. I think Gross has a good game against Ware.

This game will give us a chance to get our backs the ball in the flats. We know they will bring the heat and the safeties will have to pick up D or Stew, but they should be open for a second in the flats and have a chance at one on ones outside. I have a feeling we will need the pass game to open up the run a bit. Manningham tore up there secondary and the other Steve Smith got open a lot as well. They will key in more on 89 b/c he is our known weapon and the Giants don't have a number 1 so that helped out Manningham a bit. Jake will have to step up in the pocket and I unfortunately see quite a few batted balls at the LOS.

      Some homers' opinions of the OTs that we may realistically be able to get at 19

      By MHS831 · Posted

      You could say that-- but if we don't need a starting OT this year, why would you draft a flawed one that is not going to play? (We are coming from different underlying assumptions and perspectives--I see your argument and don't disagree with the premise) Your thinking is based on the assumption that an OT for the future is more important than immediate needs at other positions, or that we can meet other needs in later rounds even if we take the OT in round 1.  I do not think there is but 1 OT worthy of a first-round grade---they are mocked based on need and demand--if we do not have a need for a starter right now, a team at 18 may grab a T that is the 33rd best player--worth it if you have no starting T, but not if you have a starter.  So just because they are mocked around the middle of the first it does not mean that the players are good values--teams get desperate.  QBs are a great example.  Simpson may be worth it in round 1 for the Cardinals, but not the Jets, because they have Geno Smith.  Sure, they will need a QB by next year, but taking Simpson is a reach. I do not see our need, with 2 starters (Walker and Moton) and another possibly returning by the end of the season enough to justify ranking OT over positions like Safety, Will LB--I do not think we replaced A Shawn Robinson (We gonna put a NT out there?  Wharton (280lbs)?  So do we reach in round 1 for a player who may not play much or do we get a Will LB that can cover?  A deep free safety?  A quality center? A playmaking TE?  A DT to replace Robinson?  A wide receiver to balance the secondary?  Long term, if the right player was there, you would be right.  Short term, OT is a luxury at this point, in my view.

      We arent switching. Evero is 3-4 to the core. Given how 3-4 has been a noticeable characteristic of top defenses recently and we have drafted and signed players fir it  I dont know why anyone would think that's a good idea
