Pat Kirwan lists FB Rashawn Jackson among potential undrafted gems

Fiametta just seemed a little timid at times. I'm used to Hoov sticking his head in a gap and blasting somebody. Fiametta seemed to tip toe when he was in. That could be because he wasn't 100% on play recognition and reads, so maybe this season he'll hit the gap with more confidence.

Takes awhile to learn the position. That being said, so many teams have several good TE's now a days that push comes to shove we should be able to snag a top flight vet cheap.

I like Tony, but I've never liked the 4th rounder used to snag him.

I don't see fiametta being able to replace Hoover anytime soon. That's one of the losses I'm most worried about. Almost everywhere else we have younger, better guys to step in.

Watching the few games where Fiametta got playing time he wasn't very aggressive as a blocker.

It seems with the addition of recent additions of sutton, goodson, fiametta, and edwards that we are trying as hard as we can to get as many fresh legs as possible to run behind the O-line.

I'm thinking we keep both Jackson and Fiametta on the squad this year. FB is such a vital part of our rushing offense, it's almost laughable to think we'd skimp at the position. Sutton coming in and doing well might preclude us from doing this, but personally, I'd rather keep 2 FBs and 3 or 4 RBs than an extra corner or 7 LBers. Yeah, I'm that sold on the importance of the FB to us.

Sutton was a better fullback than Fiametta.

IDK about that but Fiametta definitely didn't impress me. Thats why I thought the Hoover release was a boneheaded mistake considering how little he was making and how unproven TF was.

    • Yooooooooo... WTF is this hairline bro??? It's OVER! Shave it off my man!
    • He's a free agent next year actually. Wish we had the balls to bring him in to compete, looking around the league though he might get a legit starting offer or at least an offer to compete somewhere that he would control his own destiny. 
    • I don't love Bryce Young.  I DO understand his abilities as a QB. I dont expect him to do things that are beyond that. I also dont hold it against him.  The ability to throw 40 yards in with the velocity to take your receivers hands off, doesn't have the impact on the game as people think it does.  I think it's a pretty silly thing to even attempt to debate, when the ones crying about it doesn't add context.   Bryce can and does throw deep.  His last TD to T-Mac was a thing of beauty,   and the ball placement was incredible,  especially for the distance of the throw.  I get it y'all want to talk all day about his physical limitations, rather than look at what he does, and does well.  We wouldn't be playing meaningful football in December without him.  That is a fact.  Bryce doesn't fit the mold of my type of QB, but I don't hold that against him. That is beyond stupid.
