Good/Simpson look to be battling at RG more than anything. Cable recently referred to Simpson as the backup, so it seems like Good's job to lose as of right now, but there's still a lot of camp and preseason. I would also agree that Good's experience and versatility would be better served as a reserve, while instead allowing Simpson to specialize at his one spot for now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's okay, but prolly our worst starter on defense. If it was Madden, I would think he would be in the upper 60s, or no higher than low 70s with no potential to get better.

You talking about Jefferson? If you are I strongly disagree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jefferson is fine as a rotation player, but meh as a starter to me. Typical stop gap, DT was a major weakness because of the BOOBOO we be throwing at the postion the last few years Edited August 11, 2021 by Humble_Beast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goff, Wentz, and Cousing got low $30s. I am a little concerned now. When they signed their extensions Goff was 24, Wentz was 26, and Cousins was 31 but it was only a 2 year deal. Of the 10 QB's making over $30M per year, Carson Wentz is the only one that has never won a playoff game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not heard anyone say Simpson is outperforming Incognito but I might have missed it.......... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote “We have a nice core group here, with Andre and Kolton and John Simpson and then you get Richie and Denzelle back so you’ve got a nice group to start working with, going forward. We hate losing those guys but that’s the NFL game — there’s always going to be transitions and cycles, so I am used to it. That’s part of the deal. “I am excited about it because I think we have some quality people here.” There is a three-man competition for the two starting guard spots, among Incognito, Simpson and Good. Simpson, a fourth-round pick a year ago, filled in and started two games last season, with the second one going a lot smoother than the first. “Having all three of those guys is pretty cool,” Cable said. “They’re going to raise everybody up. John is going to push those two guys, and their knowledge and experience will help him. Once he has an offseason to develop his skill — and hopefully we get to do that this year — he’ll just take off.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
