Anyone else love the fact this guy flicked off bama? He probably fell bc if that too. Hope to see him flicking off saints fans this year too

I feel like we've been missing this type of attitude on the back end of our D ever since we let Norman walk. So yeah, I do like that.

Yeah, Mitchell too. Love the players that have that attitude/ swagger on the field. Zero off the field concerns that I’ve heard of so I’m all for it

 

oh, especially on defense too when you can really set the tone

I love this pick. Swagger on the back end.

People complaining about a college player playing multiple positions. REMEBER when Thomas Davis was a safety in college. The guy was drafted to play safety. Speed is overrated when your playing 20 yards deep. He's a physical in the box safety that comes up and hits you. As well as having great ball skills

TD was listed as a safety in college, but he essentially played LB. He lived in the box.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
