So what do y'all think our plans are at corner in the coming weeks? We can probably get by the bucs with what we had on the field yesterday. But Matty ice can beat us with what he's got left on his offense if Thomas continues to see all the snaps.

 

I think Melvin White may well see more snaps with Thomas struggling in coverage.

What some of you hope DJ Moore gets sign again one day? Watch the buffalo game he doesn't fly to the ball he just stands there hoping the linebackers make the tackle. And has slow reaction speed. I'm more impressed with Melvin white and the other young guys stepping up. And josh Thomas yeah he can pack his suitcase to but for right now we gotta work with what we got.

I agree. We are gonna have to look to White for production because eventually Josh Thomas is going to cost us a W.

Might have been a completely different game yesterday if Tavon's td doesn't come back and Quick breaks away from the TD saving tackle.

Thomas wasn't even remotely close to making a play. Not to mention they dropped an easy td in the corner of the end zone when Thomas was in coverage too!

The dropped TD was with White in coverage. Thomas had one on which the receiver did not get his second foot down in bound (and it was actually contact from Thomas that drove him oob).

With our front seven there is no reason to not leave a safety deep. The means Thomas's skills is a perfect for our defense.

(Of course a guy like Revis is better to have, I am just saying given that we get our secondary from late round, undrafted or minimum payed veterans, a guy like thomas is about as good as it gets.)

      Canales doesn't sound all the way sold on Bryce

      I enjoy being truthful. Although that means being unbiased. Which most on here are incapable of being unbiased.

      Giannis

      By Raleigh PF · Posted

      It looks like the Bucks and Giannis are headed for a divorce. He says he's ready to play and the Bucks say that he has told them he isn't. It really doesn't matter except that it likely means the end for Giannis in Milwaukee. He's 31 years old, but still an elite producer.  So, as GM, would you go after him this offseason? Remember, the Hornets have two 1st round picks this year and potentially THREE first round picks next year. What would a trade look like?

      Some homers' opinions of the OTs that we may realistically be able to get at 19

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I agree with you, if all things are equal--assuming we are on the same page as to what that means.  If a DT and OT are there at 19 and you have them equal, which do you take? The DT would be rotational and get 25 snaps a game or so, and the OT is probably a reserve for most of the season.  What if Walker plays out of his mind and Ickey comes back strong? To me, there are just too many variables at T and Morgan met the needs for 2 starters.  Nothing about that screams lets "go OT in round 1" to me. I could see an Edge or a DT at 19 before I see OT.  I could see a TE or S before an OT--and I (personally) would rather have an OT over DT, Edge, TE, or S--but I do not see the logic.  In fact, CB is a position that resembles OT--who do we have behind our starters and are we happy with Smith-Wade?  A CB would be on the field more than a reserve OT.  How is the Walker at LT situation different than the the Bryce situation? He is basically on a 1-year deal and if he is injured, Forsythe becomes Pickett.  Would you take Simpson in the draft?  Dont get me wrong--I usually agree with you  and I get your point.  I am an OL guru--but I just do not see this particular group of Tackles making us better than Walker.  In addition, I think we can address OT once the Ickey situation clears up.  Short arms, poor run blocking, issues with strength--I am simply not impressed with the OTs.  For clarity, "developmental" refers to players who are still a year or two away from starting.  We are all developmental, but there are prospects who need a season to transition to the pro game. I see 1--maybe 2 OTs who could step into a starting role right now. In college, for example, taking snaps under center requires a different approach than blocking for the shotgun.  There is less to learn if you play a position that does not require much adjustment to transition to the NFL.
