Danger Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Wanted the Eagles to draft him way back when. Would be a great fit for us if we can get him for a 2 or 3 year deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would qualify this a little bit more even, and say he’s good against the run when he stays clean and can play in a straight line. When you give him that, the speed and explosiveness really show up and he makes splash plays — which is where PFF gets blinded, because their analysis places way too much weight on splash plays over consistency. He’s not consistent against the run and he really struggles in coverage. He’s not a bad player, there are probably some teams out there that he could/should be starting on. Sometimes he’ll make a play that drops your jaw. But he’s more flash than substance, for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's a good athlete that if put in a better position to succeed could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's a good athlete that if put in a better position to succeed could. Maybe. I’m not rooting against the guy or anything (unless he goes to Philly), so hopefully that’s true. I just think the Redskins eventually figured out what the Titans and Bills – and all the other teams who have never offered him a multi year contract – already knew, which is that the only consistent with him is the maddening inconsistency.

Some times they expect people to just look at their rankings and say "omg this is sooo true". Even on our team, some of the guys we thought were bright spots were maligned by PFF. Conley is a great example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
