Cotchery to Visit Monday!


*FreeFua*

Recommended Posts

I watched Cotchrey though out his time at NC State/NY/Pitt and this guy can easily be our #2. He isn't fast, but damn if he doesn't drop passes. I love this signing.. it's pretty much Lafell with hands.

 

He's better than any receiver not named Steve Smith from last year. He's better than Ginn.. just doesn't have the playmaking (speed really).. he used to be a kick returner.. maybe he still has it.. lol

 

Trust me.. if we get Cotchrey.. you guys will love him.

Zingzang. They're wining and dining him. Hmm, maybe we've been targeting him for longer than just the recent FA period.  

 

I had a weird feeling we would gravitate toward Cotchery for some reason.  Call it premonition if you will or sure-dumb luck.  It's probably more of the dumb luck.

I just don't know if he can score like he did last year in our offense.

 

It's a balancing act stat wise.  I think it's more about the overall contribution and the role he fits in with, which imo is WR2.  

 

He can do something like 800 yds / 6 tds methinks

 

I think our WR1 is found in the draft or later FA and he nets like 900 yds

Well last year Pittsburgh's rushing attack was awful. They had to basically pass to get into the endzone. If his statistics from previous years were better I wouldn't be worried, but looking at his overall career I don't know. It's especially worrying since right now we don't have a number one receiver. He's definitely a number two, or three I agree. If we sign him we HAVE to find a number one type if we want to see him produce.

Give me one reason why you choose to ignore the man, when he's so highly regarded as being a wiz at evaluating talent?

 

because they were on the team last year and they barely got any playing time.

 

look I think they can be serviceable, maybe in time even reach lafell's level of production, but the reality is we actually wanted to see improvement.

 

and those two alone is not improvement.

 

but I think we'll pick some people up and really do better than people expect, better than last year even, on offense.

Also, if Cotchery ends up being signed, I really think we need to target an explosive/big play talent at the position.  

 

I like Beckham Jr. just as much as Cooks in that regard.  He ran a 4.31 and had just dynamite play this past season.  He can KR/PR, is at 5'11 and really fights for the ball well.  

 

Matthews and Adams are two others that could very well be #1s but it may not be instant.

    • NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing. 
    • The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.
    • Yeah man, that was a catch. I like to imagine the game isn’t rigged but it’s well known sports betting is ruining the sport. Unfortunately, most coaches plan for 3 phases of the game. But there is really 4, offense, defense, special teams, and special occasions. on special occasions the refs can influence the game, leaving you in positions your actively planning to stay out of and how you respond in those special occasions make or break the game. Other times it’s other reasons. But I like to hope that the right team, or right player can extend past those types of setbacks and still find a way. anywho, probably a pipe dream. But it’s how I see it.
