There is something about college football in that a lot of colleges take track stars, put them at WR, and then just count on the opposing DBs being mediocre. Or the DBs blowing their assignments, busted coverage, ect. I think that makes it even harder to figure out some of the middle of the pack WRs.

Yeah Washington is a man's man. He looks like he's already been through an NFL strength and conditioning program. He's tall but powerful and rugged. Hes ready to get out there and mix it up and not be over powered and roughed up.

totally agree but is it not concerning that he was such a man amongst boys in college and had a very underwhelming college career production wise?

 

it's not like Georgia didn't score points either. Washington was the second best TE on their team by a mile

 

I'd much rather have someone like will mallory or even Luke Musgrave

It is really hard to gauge this because we don't even know precisely what the needs are.  Depending on scheme, every team needs players with various skill sets.    I am wondering, "Do we want a 245 lb edge or a 270 lb edge?  What are we looking for in a CB or do we feel set there?  Do we really want a G or a T?  What about NT?  DE? 

Since we have not seen the system in action, we are just trying to figure what this coach did last year and what that coach did etc.

The left side of Ikem and Torrence is BEEFY.

I do see Brady Christensen as the weak link on the OL---but if he were a backup Swing T, he would be a strength.

However, do not rule out the G from Alabama in the third or early fourth--Ekiyor-he is only 6'2"---was that by design?

Jalen Carter and the like tossed those guys around like rag dolls.  We need a boulder in there that can hold the line

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Navy_football · Posted

      Roger all that. Do you think BY avoided any sacks last game? This oline is not what you're touting them to be. They are much better then 2023! Much much much better than 2023. But come on now, you'd expect this expensive oline (most are run blocking specialist) to at least dominate in the run game every game.  And... I keep telling you our WRs and TEs are not that good yet. I mean last Sunday was a prime example. Our receiving targets never make plays like those. Never. And this is from one of the worst teams in the league. Shough could have easily had 3 INTs if not for his receivers making plays on the ball. Our guys just don't do that. XL almost allowed an INT backing up out of bounds instead of coming to the ball. And everyone would have blamed that on BY. That's why he doesn't throw to that dude. I can't recall a game except maybe the second Falcons game - maybe, where I thought our receivers could possibly be better than the other team's. I think TMac and Coker have a lot of potential. But they're aren't consistent. But they're young and WILL improve. I'm confident of that.  I don't agree that BY was drafted to only stand in the pocket. He has always been best off schedule - for better or worse.

      Do you think you will get a direct answer?  Icky giving up 5 pressures (playing hurt in his defense) by himself and Bryce only getting sacked once tells you he played well in the pocket.  He extended plays and converted some tough downs.

      What gets this team past this?

      By frankw · Posted

      I've been very apprehensive about potentially firing yet another head coach. But Canales needs to focus on being a head coach first and foremost and begin handing off some responsibilities like playcalling duties and begin overseeing the entire team or we need to assess all possible ideal HC candidates in the offseason.
