I honestly thought CJ Henderson would be the opposite CB from Horn given his improvement during camp. Jackson is better suited for the nickel given his size limitations. We're also very thin at the LB position, we are one injury away from a LB disaster. 

Snow said Horn will be our nickel.  I agree with this approach. horn can cover every route thrown at him.

So I haven't followed TMJ much but has it been the injuries that has really made him completely disappear? He had the good preseason last year and then pretty silent during regular season. He seems to be a puzzle to me at this point. Do you think you he will put it all together this year and make an impact? That is if he stays healthy of course. I hope he does.

I only recall hearing Bozeman being mentioned specifically one time during preseason coverage and it wasn't great. Did I miss something or is the "Bozeman is the second coming of Ryan Kalil" just huddle lore? 

He was a solid player with the ravens and efflein is not good so the signing was looked at as a significant upgrade.

Lol at the fact PJ climbed up to #2 due to attrition. That man has a 4 leaf clover up his ass

Side Note: When the Steelers announced their first depth chart, Mason Rudolph was listed as the backup behind Mitch Trubisky. Kenny Pickett was listed as the number three.

They later changed it to show Pickett as the backup and announced that the first one had  Rudolph second due to a "clerical error".

(Ouch 😬)

Marshall is quickly becoming expendable. Still lingering injuries, I hope he just needs 1 more week. Geez. 

 

I'm excited to see Shenault activated hopefully vs the Giants. 

I have no idea what the deal is with Marshall. If we don't see any real production out of him this season(similar to last year), I suspect we just move on in the offseason.

His original value was tied to somebody that doesn't work here anymore.

The idea was that Joe Brady not only knew him from having worked with him at LSU, but also would know how to ideally use him in his offense.

Clearly that last part wasn't true to begin with, but Brady being gone pretty much destroys whatever was left of the originally perceived notion.

So now what?

I really hope it wasn't that simple. Although apparently Phil Snow saying Darnold looks like Matt Stafford was enough to go after him. 

I think TMJ is injury prone and the fact that he cannot get separation at the NFL level is not gonna bode well for his future. He is supposedly a 4.4 sec guy but I haven't seen any indication of that kind of speed at all.

Injuries are pretty much impossible to predict.

But with that said, when you take a guy with a rep for getting injured, and he gets injured, well... 😕

    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
