Advice

It is slow around the huddle right with practice not starting until 3, and I am gettting antsy and excited for the season to begin. I use to always sport my authentic Julius Peppers jersey around on game days, but it is time to move on and purchase a new one before the season begins. I already have a Beason jersey, but I want a new defensive player authentic and need advice. Is there a player you have a lot of faith in thats going to be here for a long time and could be a cornerstone.

some players I was thinking about were Munnerlyn, Hardy, and Norwood. I appreciate the input. And yes I just went another whole post without using the B word.

Gamble or Marshall maybe

i really see marshall leaving after this year. it is hard to find a good cornerback in this league and someone is sure to overpay for marshall, and truth be told he is not that great. a great tackler, but for some reason he just does not impress me.

connor is an interesting choice

right now i have

authentic: peppers (white), smith (black), beason (blue)

stitched: jarrett (black) what a waste of money so far

replica: deangelo (blue), stewart (black), ricky manning jr (black) loved him, peppers (blue and black), delhomme black, moore (white)

i love jersey for some reson, and i WASTE money i dont have on them. but want a new defensive player authentic, and ill prob end up with a clausen or edwards replica.

I wouldn't plunk down $300 on an authentic jersey for a rookie player, just too risky.

Having said that, I agree with Zod that out of all the young guys we have I think Dan Connor will become one of the pillars of our defense in the years to come - and the good news is that you can find an authentic Dan Morgan jersey on the cheap like I did and just have someone change the nameplate!

My 2nd choice would be Charles Johnson, I think this guy is going to break out this year. He's recorded 10 sacks over 2 seasons in VERY limited playing time. I haven't calculated the exact number, but I would bet his "snaps to sacks" percentage was even higher than Peppers over that two year period.

    • Yeah not taking that Burns trade was infinitely stupid. We seem to be finally righting the ship but, imo, our biggest issue since Tepper bought the team has been coaches and management having a poor understanding of where our own roster is at. Starting with that idiot Rhule drinking his own kool-aid and thinking he was going to come and take the NFL by storm with Teddy freaking Bridgewater. Could have just kept Cam on the last year of his contract and gone from there but noooo that fat slob had to feel like he was the big man on campus. First round wizard Marty Hurney who, for whatever his faults, has a freaking HOF track record with first round picks, wants to trade up for Hebert but fat fug Rhule says no. Then we kept Rhule for 3 years which is absolutely unbelievable to me and every single year he treated our roster like it was just one player away trading our draft picks for Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield who have proven since leaving that Matt Rhule was an even bigger idiot of a coach than we thought. We finally seem to understand we are a ways off and trade CMC, but then we don’t take the actual good trade for Brian Burns who was never better than a run of the mill situational pass rusher. Then we botch the self scout of our OL (and team) after Wilks, even though they were bad before Wilks simplified the scheme, thinking they can execute whatever the hell Reich and Brown were trying to do. So we win a couple meaningless games playing dummy ball and Fitterer thinks we’re a player away again. And nobody even considers that having the slowest receiving corps imaginable with Damiere freaking Byrd, who can’t even make it to the season before being injured and cut, as your only hope for speed, coupled with the worst pass blocking OL I’ve ever seen, might lead to titanic levels of disaster. The way Canales and Morgan have been adamant about constantly bringing competition at every position has been refreshing and made a huge difference. I was kind of worried that we had fallen into our old ways leading up to the draft with all the talk of defense only and worried that they might feel the offense was set. Very glad to see they were not complacent on that. My big thing now is I’m still wondering why Evero is still here. I can’t think of a single player who has gotten better under him, and the Broncos defense got better once he left. We’ll see.
    • really good interview that gives some insight into their decision making process in making up the schedules and the issues they run into with so many people broadcasting games now. also some interesting discussion on what they have going on and where they might be heading in the international games. vikings have 2 of them, btw. we might be seeing more of that.     
    • wow i absolutely LOVED watching that.   will watch again...and again...and again.
