This guy was getting plenty of hype on here last year before the injury.  And it seemed it was assumed he was going to be the starting CB across from Bradberry.

Unless I've missed it.  But there hasnt been much coverage of him at all.  I dont think I heard his name mentioned at all in OTA's

 

@Jeremy Igo @RoaringRiot or anyone who has sources that were at OTA's.  Did anyone catch how he was looking conditioning wise and hiw he looked in coverage/drills?

 

If he can return back to what we expected him to be, thatd be big.  Especially considering putsode of Bradberry and Jackson.  The CBs are a big question mark

He has been running with the ones and looks good. Glad to see him back. That was a nasty break. Can still hear it.

Who's spot has he been taking with the 1's?  Bradberry or Jackson's?  Or has he been on with the 1s specifically in nickel packages with the other 2.

Both. There is a ton of subs in OTAs. He has also lined up at nickel

After watching Captain just kill us last year.  If Cockrell can come back to full form.  That trio gives me real hope with this defense.  

Feels like 2015 when we had a 

A CB coming off a big rookie season (Bene was rated the top rookie CB his rookie year).  Jackson is coming off a big season

A #1 CB going into a contract season wearing #24

A 3rd solid vet CB while Cockrell isnt quiet Peanut comparison.  He's been in for a minute

Cockrell just may be a reason why Gaulden probably really needs to lock down the safety spot to secure his future. 

Cockrell might just turn the whole CB group upside down (in a good way). Competition is a good thing! I'm sure that he has designs on starting. It will be interesting to see what transpires.

I'd love to see us run more match up coverage this year, whether it's in the form of man coverage or match up zone. Especially with the Bradbury/Jackson combo. Bradbury excels against bigger WRs where Jackson has the speed to match up with the burners, but at the same time, if you play those guys as pure LCB/RCB it's pretty easy for the opposition to create match up problems for us.

      Down With The Devils: Series Wrap-up

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Well bois, we gave the Devils their due! Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... The jersey boys have been trying to jack our steeze for a few years now. They've followed our blueprints and studied our tape. Every offseason, they pounce on our sloppy seconds in a Newark minute. Quick with the puck, ferocious on the forecheck and stifling team defense. Down to the colors, this is this closest we'll come to having to play ourselves in Ole Stanley's Hockey Hoedown. As the postseason began, Rod stood flexing in the gym mirror and saw this guy staring back from the void... (Shutters) When beating us at our game didn't work, Timo and the Tri-State Trash tried to tango instead. Outside of a bitchass cheapshot on Freddie, that poo didn't work either. Their goon squad was getting wrecked by our bantam weights. As much as we all wanted to see Svechy or Staal Bunyan literally break someone in half after the Great Dane went down, they didnt need to. Our munchkins were monsters! Jarvis obliterating giants at the blue line, Logan laying the Stank on dudes twice his size and Blakers blasting Timo into next season. It was beautiful to see! (Side note: Does JBlo wear lead weights under his pads? 170lbs shouldn't be able to hit that hard!) We closed it out in 5, for the gentleman's sweep. Only team in the league to win a series in each of the past 7(?) seasons! And, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year... Onto the awards: Key To The Series : 6 for 19 - .316% IT FINALLY WORKED!!! MVP : 16/180 g/s - .911 save% - 2.53 gaa Seriously, without this dude, we would've won in 3! (Trust me bro) 3rd Star : 6/94 g/s - .936 save % - 1.59 gaa The Great Dane   2nd Star : 3 g - 5 a - +1 - 20:38 toi/g - 18 hits - 3 bs - 58.1% fo 3 PP goals and the 2OT series winning goal! WOOAAAHHH NELLY!!!!   And, your 1st Star of the series : 5 g - 1 a - +3 - 16:48 toi/g - 16 hits - 1 bs - 1 tk - 50% fo Zero, I repeat, zero penalty minutes for the series! MISSSTAAAHHH SVEEECHNIKOOOV!!!!!! Onto The Next: Now, we wait for the Habs to make it a nasty 7 game slog, while we recuperate. And, hopefully, get Nikishin, and some of the other black aces some real peactice time. We are gonna need those guys at some point. Because, if you think the Devils were dirty, hoooo boy, wait till you see what's next...
