    DE-NT-DE

OLB-MLB-MLB-OLB

Are you referring to the two DE?

 

My prediction is this:

     KK-POE-VB

Addison- Luke- Shaq- Irvin/Burns

Its confusing because short is listed as a dt still but I believe he will be in the de spot.

Basically I'm saying love will spell Poe and Cox will spell short. I don't think Butler makes the team anymore.

probably not which leaves a huge gap at that other DE spot. Alvin Bailey would really help

Wow did I fug this thread up. 

I think the most common line ups will be:

Addison Poe Short

Addison Poe Cox

Addison Love Short 

Cox Poe Short 

 

I dont think Butler is in the plans.

 

So how much weight do you think Addison and Cox are gonna put on to play 3-4 DE? In today’s world 3-4 DE are not 315 two gap guys.  But they sure as hell are not  260/270lbs either.  Teams would run all over us. 

Did you dip into Marty’s bottle of scotch while listening to him on the radio this morning?

Addison at 3-4 DE? 200.gif

He’s barely big enough to play DE in a 4-3. I think our starting 3-4 DEs are Short and Love. I really have no clue who’s going to back them up...I’m hoping we pick up at least 1 or 2 more FAs capable of playing 3-4 DE. Not sold on Cox playing that role, especially since Irvin talked about mentoring him...I don’t think Irvin is suited to teach him how to play 3-4 DE. I know Irvin doesn’t speak for the team, but still...don’t think he will become big enough for 3-4 DE. Even Jeremy called Cox a “speed guy”...3-4 DEs are not speed guys...those are 3-4 OLBs.

For 3-4 DTs, I think it’s Poe, backed up by Butler (assuming we keep him).

For this to really work we need another starting caliber 3-4 DE. Allen Bailey please. There was some speculation on WFNZ yesterday that H2.0 is still going hard after Bailey.  Bailey is still weighing his options between a couple teams.  

Hopefully it looks like this:

Bailey- Poe-Short 

With a rotation of Butler, Love, and either Vateo or Qualls.  

If Cox could get up to 290lbs. He may also be an option.

Y'all saying Butler is getting cut or not in the plans probably aren't too far off but if he shows up to camp motivated and shows he can at least be a backup he's cheap depth and not worth cutting yet.

Butler not being in the plans is something to look forward too. Holding out hope for this

      I’m expecting a breakout season from Ja'tavion Sanders

      By rayzor · Posted

      seems like he wasn't quite himself when he came back from landing on his head. like his confidence wasn't 100%. hoping it is, though.  we've got a lot of potential here. i really like our TE room right now. RB corps is stacked. WR doesn't look too shabby either. and we are going to see some good things from BY too.

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By Navy_football · Posted

      It's been mentioned in this thread, yet many are glossing over it... This WR group has a ton of potential. TMAC, XL and Coker, and maybe even Horn as the speed guy will get a ton of snaps in this offense. The reality is that they are all really unproven. Hopefully they're ascending, but we don't know if XL and Coker are maxed out based on last season. TMAC and Horn are ROOKIES. So the only "proven vets" are Thielen, Moore and Renfrow. Not exactly top of the league. Biggest issue being a lack of speed to take the top off of defenses. Say what you want about Tedd Ginn but he was probably the most important receiver on the team in 2015.

      That would basically make him a top 10 quarterback based on last year's stats if you break down each QB metric, complied and ranked them. I get the premise of the question--why should we get rid of Bryce after the season if the team still sucks, but it's not Bryce's fault?  Fair enough. If Bryce balls out and for whatever reason we still can't get over the hump, he shouldn't catch all the grief for it.  However, I will caveat that while stats can add layers of paint to a canvass, they do not always paint the whole picture.  So while those hypothetical stats are pretty darn good, if we are inept in the red zone settling for FGs or he's coughing up the ball on sacks or completing layup passes that doesn't get us first downs, then statistically he can have a really good season, but it could leave us on the short end of the scoreboard some games.
