MTG, kind of reminds me of the albino orc from lord of the rings. I'm not trying to down anyone for their looks, I'm sure some people are into that.

Man this is such a measuring stick year for us. I'm excited to see how we do against so many good QB's.

Ben Standig brought up an interesting point in his latest article on the athletic. With this logjam at tackle, what are the chances we trade one of our backups who probably won’t make our team to someone else for a late round pick? Last year we traded a 6th round pick for David Sharpe and a 7th. Now it looks like he’ll have a hard time even making the team. It’d be nice if we could recoup that 5th round pick we traded to the Eagles.

Speaking on that work ethic a bit. According to his coaches Jamin Davis was an hour early to every meeting and IIRC spent an additional hour unprompted with his coach asking questions and reviewing game tape. This guy is exactly the workaholic we want leading our LB corps in the future. Are there false steps and hesitation on his tape? Definitely and it was part of the reason I had him ranked 3rd behind JOK and Zaven, but damn the more research I do on this guy the more I like him and feel safe in having a positive projection about his growth curve. For those who are wondering why it took him so long to start, the reason why is he had a highly decorated senior playing in front of him who ended up having a stroke tragically. Once that happened it paved the way for Jamin and he got better and better as the season progressed.

I get why you’d have this impression, but one thing you might want to key on when evaluating Dyami is how well he executes his double moves and head fakes while getting in close to the DB and attacking leverage.

He told that other man he look like a toddler in a diaper 😆😆😆

This dude is low key hilarious.

Kam Curl will be our Buffalo Nickel and then spell Landon as needed. I don’t know what Landon’s recovery will ultimately be like but I’m sure Kam’ll be rotating with Landon often in the beginning of the season. He’ll find his way on the field.

Does anybody else feel like Darrick Forest will be Deshazor’s replacement?

Thought this was a pretty good video charting Young’s growth over last season. How he learned to add a bull rush to his Arsenal versus using his side scissors all the time.

JDR said that he plans to eventually cross train Toney at both DE and LB.

Yup that was an informative interview with JDR. Landon was told to get lighter this year and will stay at SS but sometimes play in the box like a quasi LB. Kam Curl will get in where he fits in and will alternate between Buffalo Nickel and FS. Also they will at some point cross train Shaka Toney as both DE and LB and in the future JDR envisions WJ3 and BSJ as our two outside corners which would put Fuller in the Slot. He also wants to see our corners helping our d line get sacks as much as the line helps our corners with coverage.

I wanted to share some good examples of what JB does well and how he showed some new things in the senior bowl. Apologies if these have been posted already here. His blocking prowess. Dude is a fighter. Has decent play speed. At least decent enough to threaten the middle and slip behind LB's on play action. Hands already so much better than Sprinkly QB Friendly Catch Radius He hit the endzone more times in the senior bowl and practice than he did his whole CFB career it seems.

@IrepDC have you checked out his play in the senior bowl? One thing I like about pretty much all of the picks this year, is that all of them are on an upward trend and with the right coaching and environment can grow further. That's why so many teams draft Senior Bowl risers, because a big question that not many on the outside think about is how are college coaches holding a player back? Or maybe it's better to say, how much more can they flourish and grow with NFL caliber coaching? IMO BSJ is an example of this dynamic. He has a lot more growing to do, but he has shown growth and he has the physical and mental traits to keep growing while also being in an environment where he doesn't have to immediately be the guy and can take his time.

Man I’m glad to read that write up, it validated a lot of the initial feels I had about this guy. When I watched his cut-ups I thought he played faster than his 40 time and had decent speed for his position. But, one of the main things that stood out to me was how often he used his impressive wing-span to bail out his qb on off target throws. His blocks were a highlight as well, but I’m also super glad that that tenacity also extends to his play in the red zone during senior bowl practice. I think this guy could be a massive upgrade over Sprinkles by the end of the season.

I’m high on this kid because he showed out in the senior bowl and actually shows the rare mix of aggression/edge to match his elite length and very good press coverage. For those saying it was a reach, Ron said he had a team calling to trade up to that pick and after we picked BSJ that same team called back and said that was going to be their guy. Scouts love this dude and see him as possibly the next Richard Sherman. He’s got a ways to go on that, but with Chris Harris coaching him up I’m excited to finally have a big body corner hopefully pan out for us.

This is how he specifically upgrades our defense.

they had multiple zoom calls with Holland including one with Nate Kaczor, so I think it’s safe to say he’s on our radar.

I think they’re targeting Moehrig or Jevon Holland. IIRC they’ve had multiple zoom calls with Jevon and also like his KR/PR potential.

I’m pretty high on Davis and think he’s the most well rounded LB still available with very high upside and athletic ability. My top want was to trade down and get him but whatever he will be a major upgrade over Bostic. Military kid with a great background and football character as well.

My wife just saw Ron River walking out of Tysons. I told her to yell at him to pick JOK.

Julio can barely practice week to week and is nearly always a question on game day. He's on the decline and the other issue is, what if he wants a new deal after being traded?
