Rockice_8 Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Just now, Bobby816 said: I’m not concerned about the playoffs really. It’s about growing, giving the players something to play hard for, maybe find a few more starters, etc. Then it's probably a good idea to not start 0-6. The goal should always be the playoffs given it's been nearly a decade since we've been there. Looks like Sam, Mosley, Q, DT, etc will all be back after the bye which hopefully starts with a win against a banged up PHI team. Need the OL to gel over that bye week too.

Bobby816 Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I’d love for someone to explain to me why we’d claim Willis but not Taco? My 1st Douglas wtf moment I'm sure of many 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetskid007 Posted September 20, 2019 Author Share Posted September 20, 2019 I get that Taco is out in Dallas in part because they don't like his "laid back" attitude (which seems to be a pet peeve of our coaching staff/FO; see Trumaine Johnson), but we still should've claimed him. Let him come in and work for a week and if he's not meeting your standards cut bait and move on. I have a feeling we'll be regretting this one.

rickyt31 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 lol I forgot we had Willis. Anyway. I'm really hoping Falk performs well so we can trade him for a high pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 1st Douglas wtf moment I'm sure of many IMO we don’t need another DL with no twitch and no explosiveness at the combine Taco ran a 4.92 with a 1.73 split., a 7.17 3cone and a 4.39 shuttle. In the events that demonstrate explosiveness, he had a 33” vertical and a 9’10” broad. Willis was 4.53, 1.58, 6.85 and 4.28 with a 39” vertical and 10’5” broad. neither performed well in the nfl but I think that Willis has more of a chance to develop into at least a situational pass rusher.

I had thought of it but could it be related to him being lazy. Not say he is naturally quick but he could bring some talent to bolster the depth if not starting gig for strongside area.

Cinncy tried putting Willis on the Line but I think he is more the 34 OLB. I would have been very happy if we had drafted Willis. Hopefully we get him in shape to play our edge rusher. He wouldn’t be the first great athlete to bust but for now I hold out hope that he was misused in Cinncy and can be a good fit for us.

Bobby816 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 FYI Josh Allen with 2 sacks last night. We might be lucky if Q has 2 TFL all season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
