Just as a sub-plot to mention, I’m a big fan of how we reward undrafted talent with big contracts. It sets a precedent that we value work and production over pedigree.

One of my favorite aspects of our All-League secondary last year was that we had our star stud Ramsey, yet Bouye, Gipson, & Church were all originally undrafted. Crazy.

Another mind-numbing stat: Norwell was the only Olineman in football last year to not allow a single sack or pressure (what?!? Not even a pressure?!? Granted that’s from PFF and they’re iffy on OL evaluations, but [BLEEP] if true. That’d be one of the most dominant years an Olineman has ever had in the NFL, and with an unpredictable QB to block for in Cam.)

That’s beyond nuts if he went 16 games without allowing a pressure and also graded as a top 5 run blocker.

Those are like imaginary stats.
