MacReady Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Just now, TheOnlyThing said: Nope. Smith, even with Hicks out, had been playing very well in the weeks leading up to his season-ending injury. He had a pick against the Rams in week 11 and "was playing some of his best ball in the last month, where he recorded at least 10 tackles in four of five games." https://bearswire.usatoday.com/2019/12/09/chicago-bears-roster-moves-roquan-smith-injured-reserve-devante-bond-xavier-crawford-dewayne-hendrix/ Didn't you JUST cite Martinez's poor PFF grade? Blake Martinez - 60.0 Roquan Smith - 52.4 The interception against the Rams he should never have been in the area. There were two other Rams defenders (3 total) and Goff still threw the ball. You're wrong and you're never going to admit it. Roquan Smith is terrible, he's just terribly fast at being terrible. Nick Kwiatkoski by the way? 79.8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The article he used was bearswire.usetoday He's gonna need a better call to authority to convince everyone using a first round pick on an ILB is a good move considering Martinez and Kwiatkoski are both outplaying Smith and both were 4th round picks while Smith was 8th overall. And he's never going to respond either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Kwiatkoski by the way? 79.8 There is no question that Roquan Smith had a very poor start to the season, due in no small part to off the field issues that led him to missing one game and playing terribly in others. But Smith was also playing much better the past several weeks, which is the point I made. Correctly. And by citing their respective PFF grades are you advocating for GB to sign the soon to be free agent Kwit (79.8) over Just A Guy Blake Martinez (60.0)? Interesting thought. PS did you happen to catch the name of the stiff playing OLB on the rejuvenated Rams D who is currently sporting a 59.1 PFF grade? Hint, it isn't Fowler, Ebukam, or even Okoronkwo.

Because he's a bad player. Quote But Smith was also playing much better the past several weeks, which is the point I made. Correctly. Incorrectly actually. The interception I've already outlined. He shouldn't have been where he was, and Goff threw a terrible pass. You want to say he was playing better in the past several weeks and you can go ahead and say that, but I'll say that 10 tackles and 2 sacks against the Lions is not terribly impressive. Quote And by citing their respective PFF grades are you advocating for GB to sign the soon to be free agent Kwit (79.8) over Just A Guy Blake Martinez (60.0)? Yes. Lol. I said that 4 weeks ago. Four weeks ago I said we should sign Kwiatkoski. Quote PS did you happen to catch the name of the stiff playing OLB on the rejuvenated Rams D who is currently sporting a 59.1 PFF grade? Yes. Matthews is no world beater at EDGE anymore. That was never my argument. Still, he's wildly more effective when put in a position to succeed based on his abilities. https://www.therams.com/video/clay-matthews-flies-off-the-edge-to-plant-teddy-b-for-major-loss https://www.therams.com/video/clay-matthews-forces-fourth-down-with-big-sack The man has 8 sacks in 10 games with 2 forced fumbles.

I have never contended that the only way to improve the ILB position is by spending a 1st round pick on the position. If Gute thinks Kwit or some other free agent is the guy to improve upon Just A Guy Blake, go get em and you will have been proved prescient.

OLines have to concentrate on Brockers, Fowler, and the best defensive lineman in the NFL so Clay can play chase and tackle a QB with abandon again that is true. Yet, he still has a ****ty PFF score for very good reason. But his poor overall play is hardly anything new. In fact, Matthews' 8 sacks this season represent the most sacks he has had as an OLBer since 2013. His last four seasons in GB, Matthews had 3.5, 7.5, 5, and 6.5 sacks, respectively while playing OLB. Despite all the excuses that were made for him, Mathews has not been a world beater at EDGE for a long time. He was grossly overpaid for his performance during his second contract in GB ... something some of Clay's fans refuse to acknowledge to this day.

It takes money to sign veterans. Preston Smith has a rating of 68.9 and he’s getting paid three times as much as Clay is this year. Fackrell is gonna get paid 7-10 million per by some team next year. There is a finite amount of serviceable EDGE rushers in this league and it’s gonna cost you to have one locked up for long. 2017 Matthews was still beating the man across from him in 2 seconds. The defensive backs on his team were getting beat in 1.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another body blow for the Saints losing Sheldon Rankins for the year. I don't wish injury on anybody but no denying this keeps improving GB chances when the top teams are losing front line players. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001086793/article/sheldon-rankins-suffered-significant-ankle-injury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
