that leaves 5 positions open for competetion next year

Diggs has been good, I just don't understand why you guys are already looking for someone to feel the void when he clearly has a couple years left.

I don't get it either. Our LB corps is one of the best in the league, and most importantly we don't need to mess with a group of 3 guys who've been working well together for 3 years now. That is unless Connor shows himself to be extremely capable at Sam, which isn't very likely.

Posts with no grammar or set out are painful.

LCB: Gamble

SS: Harris

FS: Godfry

RCB: Ken Lucas (I'd rather Marshall)

WLB: T. Davis

MLB: Beason

SLB: Diggs (or Connor)

LDE: Brayton

DT: Kemo

DT: Lewis

RDE: Until there's a pick, or a signing: Charles Johnson

I hope you're not talking about me. As for your logic, it's flawed. Connor doesn't have the skills or size to play strong side. If anything, Davis would be moved back to strong side and Connor starts at weak, and to be honest, there would be no point.

Between Diggs and connor there is about 5 pounds difference.

As for his abilities, he was compared to Pousluzny and Morgan coming out and that's high praise, he has the skills to fit any of the three positions, Diggs was playing great football last year. There's no reason no to consider connor as an SLB.

I've never understood the need each season to replace Diggs !!

Seems some want 3 all-star lb's

But after watching over 40 seasons of N F L football,I can't think of many teams that had 3 all-star type lb's playing

I've never understood why a player can not play a positiun B/c they did not play in college

Connor is a rookie to NFL play ,off season weight room s,NFL coaches and trainers .He may be capable of playing any of the LB spots

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By strato · Posted

      I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
