Feels familiar all over again. In 2008 we thought Gene had landed us a blockbuster draft only To watch it all erode within a few years. Then the drafts following never lead to anything but empty hopes.
Quote:Um.

 

Except Sample is starting Sunday? :/
 

 

I'd like to know where you get this from because I was listening to Gus Bradley's interview on jaguars.com earlier today and he distinctly said that Josh Evans would start.

But who was Harvey and Groves
This was in Oesher's column this morning entitled "Last look: Dolphins-Jaguars"...

I liked it when Sample played FS in the last preseason game. He did quite well at the position. I'm still holding on to Cyprien becoming that Kam Chancellor at the SS position and Sample becoming a above talent at FS. 

Quote:Good, hopefully he plays well enough to keep Cyprien on the bench and on special teams where he belongs.




You do realize that he and Cyprien plays different safety positions... Right?

Cyp becoming that Kam Chancellor? Lol, that is funny.
So is everyone clear that Josh Evans is starting, are is there still some question there?


Evans hits hard, hopefully he pops a few people tomorrow
Evans is miserable in coverage

Sergio and Sample aren't starting together? I'm worried about Evans in coverage.

It surprised me too, but that's what Bradley and Oesher said.

If Evans is filling the Cyprien role (which wouldn't be a complete disaster at all), he'll be spending more time in the box than in coverage.

 

All the same, yeah, if the offense wants an easy 20 yards, all they have to do is put a receiver one-on-one against Evans, send him downfield, then wait for the pass interference flag.

According to his instagram, James Sample thinks he is getting his first career start. So I'm still questioning.
Sample gonna start

Does it really matter who takes the first snap? Both will be on the field heavily.

Hopefully.

Do you have an exact quote of the instagram? Keep in mind that "having a regular role" does not mean starting.
