CB James Bradberry

2016 snaps: 799

Key stat: Wasn’t beaten for a reception longer than 31 yards all season.

Another impressive rookie cornerback, Bradberry started from day one despite making the step up from Samford college as a second-round draft pick. Exposed badly in Week 1, Bradberry performed very well after that, and showed some spectacular plays in zone coverage consistent with a player of much more experience. He was beaten for an average of just 10.6 all season despite playing on the perimeter and not the slot where catch averages are lower.

our secondary is far from a liability. bradberry is a huge part of that. guy has a bright future ahead of him. both of our sophomore starters do. it's a good feeling.

The first half of last season was brutal but once they hit their stride they played remarkably well. I'm excited about our defense this season.

      "Floor, not Ceiling" - between the hashmarks

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

      Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
