Seems everyone aside from Ainias Smith has shown some sort of potential. Ainias smith is a disaster. But every draft has one at least. Trick is to not have most. also having the top 3 guys hit would be unique for us in recent years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The RBs chip block actually helped him come off the tackle to run down the QB on the inside. Agree with all this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZ_Eaglesfan Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 I swear running a modern NFL offense is going to be so refreshing come the regular season. Pre Season has shown us very, very little but you get glimpses of what is to come and it just makes me happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the athletic traits are clearly there and he flashes consistently, but he just looks awkward on some plays. Not sure exactly what it is, but the talent is clearly there if he can develop a real pass rush toolbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now it comes down to health for that unit. The WR depth is abhorrent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZ_Eaglesfan Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 (edited) Ringo probably won't start this year as I think down the line it will be Cooper in the slot and Q outside, but he has shown a lot of improvement since last training camp and I think year 3 he could cement himself as the CB2. Really encouraging stuff from him so far. I wonder if he gets more looks over Rodgers at times. Rodgers certainly has been good in camp but his size is worrisome vs bigger WR's. Hopefully Cooper can get back for the third preseason game so we can see him on the field come the regular season.

He instinctually knows how to find the ball, but he has no tools in his toolbox. Someone needs to teach him how to use his hands and leverage.

Last Stand Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 Ringo as of now makes resigning Rodgers less of a necessity no guarantees but the idea of ringo and Mitchell on the outside is just wonderful. They’re both big, strong, physical, explosive athletes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Last Stand Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 Also love ojomo as well. He can really be Milton Williams replacement if necessary. and Nolan smith in an ideal world can be an energizer bunny who can cover, run defend, and rush the passer he’s clearly never going to be anything dominant as a pass rusher. But as a starting joker guy who can kinda do a bunch of things. I think it’s possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleBlueDon Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 I feel like Rodgers hasn't looked as good as Ringo through two pre season games. Idk how I feel about him. I know he hasn't played that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be able to keep up and be sticky I'm sure. But playing corner is about a lot more than that. I feel like Ringo is a better combo of sticky and physical. And Mitchell is probably the best combo of the three. If I had to make a prediction it's that Rodgers won't be CB2 for long. He has next to zero margin for error.

Dude is just so toolsy. With a coach like Fangio, I think it was a great selection. Would have never wanted him under Schwartz. Exactly. He is a system fit. Looking ahead, I think Landon Jackson is the same type of player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
