Our coaching staff needs to utilize him a lot more. He can't do all the things necessary in the blocking game, which would open up the run but I don't see our tightends doing a lot in general for the run game.

Ever since I saw this kid in his rookie season take a bomb from Matt Moore, albeit the playoffs were gone, I was hooked. My buddies give me hell over him because he's one of my favorite players but he's a nobody (they also give me hell over Pep).

Anyways, this kid needs the PLAYING TIME. Fox said it best in the 9/22 podcast (referring to Goodson and Muuunaleynnenn) about getting better with reps and on-field experience. But yet you see guys who show substantial promise get the same amount of reps as guys who haven't proven theyre worth the price of the helmet they wear (Jarret).

My argument is, our tightends don't do poo in running schemes regardless, so go ahead and make him our everydown tight end because he's athletic, knows defenses, and can make plays. Special teams is a different story. But as far as offense goes, let him loose so we can actually win a few, and so I can finally talk my poo to my friends for liking him.

Yes.....YES I did, or I wouldn't have typed it.

Struggle is struggle man....plain and simple. No matter who you are.

Electro is obviously still struggling with his impulse management skills.

Rosario missed a block Sunday that resulted in negative yardage on a play. In our offense it's more important that a tight end block well than catch the ball.

I want to know why Barnidge isn't a bigger part of the offense right now. There was a lot of hype surrounding him in camp.

    • I am no football savant as has been demonstrated here over and over, but I saw it.  I went for years doing the mock draft thing and researching the players that we might get around our pick, time consuming stuff. And we would get to the draft and trade the pick. All that time, wasted.  So I quit doing that. Also realized I was not a scout and would never be a scout and went to looking the videos and reports After  we picked a guy.  Maybe I would look at the 1st round, but quit that too and just looked after we picked.    When they did that trade I saw Bryce and his size and just ruled him out. Then it got to yeah they are probably going to take him, I relented and looked at some video and got to his pro day. It took me all of a few minutes to see the issues. The footwork. The arm. And the tape of games? The backyard style. I knew, what can I say?  (Also, went down the physical checklist, not a single plus attribute on the NFL level. Arm, speed, size, etc, nothing to offset the negatives. nothing)  I think it was easy for me because I had not watched a single game he played in college,and wasn’t drawn in by the hype. Had no preconceived notions and just looked at it pretty clinically.  I got in here and everyone was going “but look at what he did in college! It is the SEC, if he can do it in the SEC he can do it in the NFL!” Couldn’t reason with hardly anyone.  I don’t think I could tell you which guy would succeed between two prototypical guys with great arms and athleticism, and have no special insight into any of that. My one calling in football scouting was to see the real about what we were about to do. And you still don’t know for sure until they get in a real game in the NFL. 
    • Miss Bryce sorely is possibly the most hilarious statement I have read on the Huddle in quite some time.
    • He did only throw 1 pass 20+ in that game. I think he is still struggling to adjust to the NFL. At Alabama he was able to extend plays and play backyard football. That's not only not the style of offense we have been running but his physical skills don't lend themselves to that style of play at this level.  So, the amount of issues he actually has to clean up are WAAAAAY more than I anticipated as a guy that had Bryce #1 on my board in that draft class.  I am just not seeing a reasonable path for him to clean it all up and develop in a reasonable timeframe
