He's a mismatch with TEs and literally hasn't made a single play since coming into the league that stands out. Same. I liked Joseph coming out....but as a 2nd or 3rd rounder. He really hasn't done much. Although its not like our defensive coaching has helped our causes with almost anyone. Guenther & Co, I trust. Its a new scheme and we need to play the players we have that excel in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_palooka Posted August 27, 2018 Author Share Posted August 27, 2018 Anyone been completely underwhelmed by Townsend? I can't believe they drafted him in round 5. He looks like a dime a dozen FA punter. He's a roster lock, but should he be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonGruber Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I guess Griff Whalen making the team ?. Sending Switzer to the Steelers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ Raider Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I liked switzer as a slot guy/returner but apparently griff looks better. Surprised bc I thought Carr really liked him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll agree to that, but his leg looks pretty below average. Going to have to get used to more directional punting and being on the lower end of average. Just don't see anything worth a 5th round pick. Especially when comparing to Dickson who is a monster and was also drafted in round 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was playing late against the Packers, didn't bode well. Guess Roberts in the slot another year lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_palooka Posted August 27, 2018 Author Share Posted August 27, 2018 5th round pick for him. Not horrible. I don't like keeping Dwayne Harris over him personally. I like the younger upside. You know who Harris is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ Raider Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I think it ultimately came down to a crowded receiver room and we traded a guy that ppl actually wanted. Can Harris cover kicks? Versatility is huge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ Raider Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 How much time was Bryant out there Friday? Missed some early stuff bc I was working my side gig. Don’t see why we don’t just roll with him outside and either coop or Jordy in the slot in three wide sets. I don’t mind Roberts as a fourth receiver.

Dessie Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Whalen to IR, Ateman makes the 53? Giacomini cut as well as predicted tbf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrOaktown_56 Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Giacomini is gone. Hopefully this frees up a little space if we want to make any additional veteran moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude is below average and will likely cost us big time this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
