Offensive Draft Phiosophoy | 2 TE Set & WR


Ace_Aladdin

Recommended Posts

After last week FA frenzy, we are are overhauling the offense with youth via draft. This has been a successful strategy, turning our weakness into a strength like the DL. The 2014 is a deep draft in OL/ WR the two biggest need for the team. With Gross retiring, the LT position is wide open. One possible candidate is Amini Silatolu who is athletic and has experience playing LT in his college days. | http://www.nfl.com/draft/2011/profiles/amini-silatolu?id=2532947 | 2 TE set was the most productive offensive scheme for Newton and makes it a easier transition for the younger OT. Sitting at 28 we aren't in position to draft a starting caliber LT.

Gabe will probably not go until the 4th.

 

I only worry that Benjamin is a physical speciman who is not ready yet for the pros, but has the "potential" to be great.

 

With our situation, I think we need a plug and play guy.  Cooks or OBJ would be better for me.

My god... if this actually happens.

 

This is gonna be Cam all season:

We have 3 starter returning  and Gabe Jackson is a all-american guard that is day one starter. The only concern would be how well Kugbilla pans out. Our run blocking would be taken to another level and the use of 2 TE set relieve pressure for the Tackle position.

Interesting but no chance we draft another guard in the 2nd round... That would be a terrible pick,

 

Yes, you would when your picking at the bottom of the round with a Offensive Philosophy of run first,Multi- Million dollar RB co. and when you have a OL prospect that played in the SEC and is All-American. Gettleman " Building from inside out " and love for HOGMOLLIES.

You have no concerns about Amini at LT?  An unproven 2nd year player at RG?  That same unproven 2nd year player playing beside a RT we already know isn't very good?  That's not even mentioning a rookie at LG playing beside an OG plugged in at LT.

 

IMO, your "solution" for the OL is pretty close to my "worst case scenario".

 

oh wee mayne

    • Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!
    • How do I activate said Krispy Kreme deal? I'm stoned man you can't be playing with me about this...
    • When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
