Rashaan Gaulden Deserves Some Props


Seltzer

Recommended Posts

He had a very solid night tonight.  Maybe with the signing of Tre Boston, he doesn't feel the pressure of being a square peg trying to pushed in a round hole (even though he was lined up at safety on some of his nice plays).

Regardless, he looks like he can be an impact player, which is something few were expecting after last year.  In fact, he seemed to outplay Boston tonight by some margin.  

I'm hoping our overall depth at both safety and cornerback is going to be a pleasant surprise this year.

I'm hoping with this Front 7 we just need safeties who aren't liabilities

It would have to be really good. I hope our secondary holds their own this year. Need both units to play if we want turnovers.

Gaulden looked like he was doing everything he could to earn a roster spot. That's a really good sign. He has the physical skills and is a really smart guy, if he can keep that willingness going through the grind of the next three weeks, he's got a shot.

And Boston... I know this was just his third time in pads with us so far, but he sure was making some "business decisions" on some of those plays. I hope he's willing to be more physical once the season starts.

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
