Tremble Projected to be 3rd Most Productive Rookie TE


Recommended Posts

Article by Cynthia Freelund.

"No tight end in the FBS last season earned a better center of gravity percentage on both passing and rushing downs than Tremble. This metric reflects a player's ability to maintain his center of gravity when hit or making a hit and has proven to be highly correlated to NFL blocking success since I started measuring it back in 2008."

If he never catches a pass but consistently makes key blocks resulting in moving the chains or touchdowns that's production as far as I'm concerned

I mean.  Yeah.

Don't get me wrong.  I am 100% on the Tremble Train.  I have the post history of excitement about him to back it up.

I was just saying that how the list was ordered (expected yardage/TD production), Pitts is the only one there expected to really do anything.  So really, 2nd through anything is more of a "who knows, we'll see".  Not a ranking list I feel is important for Tremble.

Yeah, Pitts is going to be a matchup nightmare for us.  I can see them going to him on a lot of 3rd down, RZ and endzone situations.  Horn has handled him before and shut him down when assigned, but they didn't assign him the whole game so Pitts took his pound of flesh anyway.  Where will we assign Horn with Pitts on the field?

Yep.

How is this accurately measured?

I know Rhule was a huge Tremble guy, I didnt share the same feelings. He could start very easily here, I do look forward to seeing how brady uses him and how many snaps he plays per game. 

I think he'll be on the field a bunch, but not get many targets. I'm already looking forward to the post-season compilation of him laying defenders the fug out! Robby and DJ's YAC will be insane with this guy's open field blocking.

    • I will as soon as you withdraw your fandom from the Patriots. Informative threads are great but all of these estrogen and emotion driven threads you start are ridiculous.
    • Will be there tonight and expect nothing from the Canes. They are soft and won't go after anyone, nor will they respond when, not if, Florida starts bullying them. Not to mention Freddie is in net. I fear this will be an ass-kicking.  
    • Is this not a bit contradictory?  Also surely if any of us are smart enough to evaluate what we're seeing in real time, a former NFL QB can at least manage the same.  Especially considering he's basing his analysis on hours (maybe generous?) of reviewing All-22 footage which he can play back over and over again, focusing each time on different position groups, match-ups, progressions, etc. which is simply impossible for a fan to fully assess in real time.  Unless you're actually at the game, we basically only get the QB/O-line in frame during the broadcast and even in that limited window of the field, there is simply too much happening.  I'm usually broadly focusing on Bryce, maybe peeping the footwork (or lack thereof) and just the overall pocket and whether there is any pressure coming.  I'm not able to watch every individual one-on-one o-line match-up on top of it to see who got beat, who didn't pick up a blitz, which o-lineman didn't shift to help double-team, or whatever else. I think the truth is somewhere in between (as is almost always the case).  Knowing the play call, audible, etc. is pretty important when judging individual performances, which is why we should always take PFF grades with a grain of salt.  But yeah we can also get a pretty good overall sense of how a player is performing just from watching the game on the couch on Sundays.  I still think there's a lot of value in a review video like this.  As long as you have the bare minimum media literacy to take the interesting insights while also acknowledging inherent biases from a video like this (i.e. obviously focusing on the good over the bad).
