Seems like a good dude, but he's just not that good of a player. Decent rotational guy, but I'm hoping one of the youngsters will emerge and put him in a rotational role as the season progresses.

Can be said about a lot of players on this roster.

He’s listed as 6”5 and 267 pounds. You don’t think he holds up against the run? 

He didn’t mention he wasn’t big enough to defend the run. His point was that Brown and Burns and even YGM are guys with physical tools to be able to turn into pro-bowlers. No guarantee but they have that upside. Weatherly may have size, he doesn’t have the upside. Wes Horton had enough size to defend the run and had some success to get sacks but in the end he didn’t have the physical tools to be a stud DE.

Gotcha. It will be interesting to see how the D line is used this upcoming season. I see it being a rotation between Weatherly and Burns on one side, and the strong side being a rotation of Gross-Matos and Obada.

    • The successful teams in the NFL right now have one thing in common: Patience. Not just with their QB, but with every facet of the program. There are going to be successes and failures, but no one panics and makes reactive decisions. Look at the Eagles, the Bills, the Ravens, the Packers, and hell, even the (newly successful) Lions. All of them showed patience with their QB's growth, let their coaches do their jobs, have drafted well, developed their own players, and plugged holes in their roster and organization with players and situations that made sense. That's what we need. And if that isn't what we have now, we need to make moves to get it there. If that means they need to blow it up to start over, then blow it up and start it over the right way. If that means to change their approach from top to bottom, change it now. But the blueprint of success is out there in the league, teams just think they know better, or they don't have the discipline to follow through.
    • X was drafted too early, needs refinement and is playing out of position. We knew this. What's the issue? Personally, I think he will be fine. Just needs more time. 
    • Rozeboom is a JAG. Shaq was most definitely not a JAG.
