Sherrod Martin Might Not Be That Bad

[Razeyfingers]

Per PFF. He was ranked

2011 - rated as the 79th at his position out of 86

2010- rated as the 76th at his position out of 85

Oh, my bad....those are Godfrey's horrific numbers!!!!

Our safeties numbers shouldve been very inflated last year with all the shitty play in front of them. They shouldve been cleaning up left and right.

and Godfrey tackles well for a corner :huh:

Didn't we give godfrey a fat new contract last season. Meh..

That's what we do! You don't have to be good to get paid here.

lol did you buy pff because of the Drayton Florence thread?

I've always thought Godfrey just as bad, if not worse than Martin. The only thing Godfrey has going for him is that he can lay the wood on some guys every once in a while.

i have never understood how people can claim martin is worse then godfrey, martin will occasionally wiff a tackle on a play sometimes but overall godfrey is worse in coverage and tackling....

Martin was actually pretty good coverage wise in 2010. Not sure how he fell off a cliff in 2011. But their is room to believe he can be a good starter. The problem is he is atrocious in the run defense.

Though I question the OP's argument tactic . You just made a post questoning their grading in the Florence thread ( and previous ones recentley ) And now your using it to back your argument?

I use PFF. I also know it isn't perfect. That is all. It has it's flaws as do all stats and was just mentioning that. You can look at other posts where I have used PFF and I often say when using them that I know they have there flaws.

They are still good. They just aren't gold. I think it especially important to remember you can't judge a player 100% by stats and that is what we were doing with the Bills kid as no one has followed his career.

Makes sense that we brought in Nakamura, Smith and were thinking about drafting Mark Barron now.

He gambles more than Martin does. Martin is more about being indecisive and Godfrey is all about being too cocky imo.

MARTIN WAS NOT GOOD IN COVERAGE IN 2010!!!! ..and was even worse in 2011. Watch the games. I thought maybe Godfrey is worst than I thought so I watched all the games again. (Thank you NAS drive and direct tv :) ). Godfrey main problem is missing tackles he should make. As far as coverage he is so far ahead of Martin it's crazy. .. I repeat Sherrod Martin is ALWAYS OUT OF POSITION.

You guys are driving me crazy. Watch the games. Every big pass play over 25 yards is Martins fault. Every single one. Martin doesn't miss tackles.. he can't tackle.

[Proudiddy]

Nakamura and Smith both have a very realistic chance of starting this year.

[CamNewton1]

Sherrod is garbage and needs to be cut ASAP.

Id like to see what this HaaaaRuki guy has. Hopefully he's developed good instincts and knows his limits. You would have to think he was watching film with Ed Reed, taking notes, and eh man he's japanese so you know he can take notes like a mufugger. . just sayin
