Nathaniel  “Tank” Dell- WR Houston

5’10 170lbs 

SPEED, SPEED, SPEED!!!! Agility, AGILITY AGILITY.. I call him “Mr. Peace see you Later”

Fits 2 needs as a punt returner and downfield speed.. College production was great for a player built like him.. And because he’s built this way and 23 could be a day 2 option in the draft.. I don’t think he makes it to day 3…

We have neglected KR/PR forever in the draft.

Hence why I said in my offseason predictions that we would do so again.

He works with Brandon White. General tip for those who may not be aware and are really into the draft, check some of the top personal trainers (GoldFeet, Brandon White, routegod) around the league. Scouting becomes a whole lot easier once you identify some of the important circles. Those guys churn out the best of the best throughout the entire draft. You can easily find some 4-7th rounders who turn into legitimate stars just by seeing who works with who. As they say, you are who you surround yourself with. 

 

(Clayton Tune is a dog too btw)

I saw the 4 Man Rush podcast talking with a Colts fan and film junkie yesterday, and the Colts fan mentioned that Reich didn't seem to have much interest at all in acquiring smaller, shiftier receivers during his time in Indy. Indy drafted Michael Pittman, seemed to have no interest in Skyy Moore. only WR drafted in an early-ish round during his time in Philly was Dorial Green-Beckham. not sure if that will remain the case here but it's worth mentioning.

What about resigning Andre Roberts? I know we wasted money on him but he shined in the 3 games he played for us.

Really?  I thought he looked pretty underwhelming...or at least incredibly slow.  A lot of people don't care as long as your returner doesn't turn the ball over, but he had one fumble in 6 returns and almost a second one, but was ruled down just before.

Blackshear is the guy I would like to re-sign for the KR/PR position.  He looked fast and elusive and was pretty sure-handed, not to mention he was a rookie who still has room to develop at that position and as RB depth.  For comparison, he also had 1 fumble, but in 25 returns vs. Roberts' 6 returns.  He also averaged 9.2 YPR on punts and 27.0 YPR on kickoffs, vs. Roberts' 4.5 YPR on punts and 17.5 YPR on kickoffs.  I think with Roberts' age and the fact that he's coming off of a knee injury last year, it's almost a no-brainer to move on at this point.

I’ve heard this too. That he likes receivers with size. 
 

Could be a breakout year for Marshall then.

    • I’m not mad at Moehrig.  He’s great at what he does.  And to be honest, a lot of my favorite safeties in our history were box-first type guys - Maxie, Minter, Mike Mitchell, Chris Harris…  they’re first and foremost objective was to put people on their backs and coverage was secondary.  There is a place for that.  There is a definite need for that.  Physical guys that set the tone.  So cool, we have that in Moerhig. But what we have lacked for the vast majority of our existence is a true free safety that cleans everything up on the back end.  Sometimes they come in the form of a JOAT, like Peppers.  I think he would be a fantastic compliment to Moehrig’s strengths and weaknesses.  If we don’t go after him, I certainly hope Ransom is given the chance to grow and develop in real-time with real game reps, because what he did in preseason was very encouraging to see.  I hope he can grow into that roaming center fielder with a little bit of an edge to him as an enforcer as well.  He has the tools.  In the meantime, adding Peppers would only help.
    • Option 1 is most likely. Even if he kills it this year, it wouldn't be prudent to rush an extension for one good season. If you have to pay him more because you waited another year, then he earned it. And that's OK. Adjust accordingly. 
    • Cam had the advantage of having a very strong supporting cast his first 2 seasons. Things definitely worsened later on. But those first couple of years can kill a QB. Some never truly recover. If they do recover it takes years, and usually with another team. Trying to learn to be an NFL QB with TEs and WRs that are trying to learn too is a recipe for disaster. Imagine if Cam's rookie season was that 2014 offensive squad. Changes everything! I said it when they moved up in 2023. This team wasn't ready for a rookie QB yet. Anyone that thinks Stroud would have been a lot better is delusional. The correct formula is to build a strong team and then you go get your rookie QB. Not the other way around. BY is going into his third season and we're still trying to put a respectable group of WRs and TEs around him. I think they have the right personnel now. Unfortunately they haven't developed into actual NFL players yet.  This season we should expect consistency and aggressiveness from BY. Mostly for his development but also to DEVELOP his young cast.
