Yeldon is decent, wouldn't say he goes down easy but he runs with less power than even Denard despite being 20 pounds heavier.  Also was never a Lee fan even before the draft, I hated the pick.  Hopefully he gets better but I doubt it

uh oh. You're wrong. They're going to get you.

Go read any scout or article from national media outlets. You are wrong. You don't post what you see with your eyes, you post what you think will rile the forum up. It's all good, you can do that, just don't be upset when we call you out for it and act like you aren't.

go read scouring reports on Gabbert and get back

I disagree that Yeldon goes down on first contact, what he does display however is an aversion to contact, very much unlike say a M. Jones-Drew. What strikes me about Yeldon is his balance, and that's why I disagree with the statement that he goes down on first contact. If you skip to the 0:20 mark on this video, it shows him breaking multiple tackles and still falling forward and gaining yardage as he was going to the ground. Granted, that is "just one play", but as I watch him I maintain the sense that he is just a pain in the rear to get to the ground.

 

Now, the thing that I think he glaringly lacks is top end speed. But, if he did have that, he'd have been drafted in the top 15.

I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!

Thank you for your well thought out view, Deacon. I'll consider your stance.

Some of those guys have to do more to be considered core players. 

 

Was Colvin not on the list?

Why can't you respect my opinion?

Because it's either woefully uninformed, horribly constructed, or simply an act put on to illicit reaction.


None of which gamer respect. Quite the opposite.

I think the great bulk of your opinions are homer based, but I respect them nonetheless

The offense is almost set... just need a couple more guys on the offensive line, and a couple more roleplayers, mainly a power running back and/or good lead blocker (hopefully both in the same player).


Defensively, there's a ways to go. Need depth across the board, and some more talent infused into the starting line up.

I still want a guy who scares the daylights out of DBs because he can get on top of you quick. A true threatening burner. We'd put up insane numbers if we had that guy. I'm talking 3 receivers with 1K, and possibly a TE with 1K

IMO, if Lee can stay healthy, he can be that vertical threat that can stretch the field. Regardless, I don't think WR is a priority, but more of a luxury if we were to add another WR. We have one of the best WR corps in the NFL, and one of the youngest as well. I say, just stay with these guys and let them develop.


Another one that comes to mind is another blocking TE, unless Lewis comes back on a much cheaper contract. Move TE is set with Thomas and Harbor.

LOL. No you don't. You've made idiotic snide remarks to my posts a dozen times. But your cute lil nice guy act is slightly less annoying than the typical "bash every jaguar player and coach" drivel you usually troll with.

I'd bring Lewis back for a 2 year vetty minimum with the expectation that he is only for blocking purposes. 

 

I may be in the minority, but i think we're"fine" on the OL, especially once Linder gets back. And I believe that Bowanko can take that center spot from Wiz. Slide Beadles out next year and plug in Cann at LG, and a line like:

 

LT - Luke( i know, i know)

LG - Cann

C - Bo

RG - Linder

RT - Parnell

 

Shatley

Beadles

Wells(?)

 

I think we'd be pretty good there

I feel Joeckel just needs a hungry player behind him to push him into vast improvement. He has improved from last year, and maybe next year will be his breakout. Still feel we should bring in a veteran LT.


At center, I'd love to know if the front office/coaching staff believe Bowanko is the guy. But if they are trying him at Tackle, then maybe they feel otherwise. Center should also be addressed in free agency. I'd prefer a solid, experienced veteran. Bo struggled last year with line calls, from what I remember.

Respect the game.  Play with a sense of urgency. 


1.)  Take care of the ball.  Win the turnover battle.

2.)  It's all about 3rd down.  Win on 3rd down to win the game.

3.) Playmakers make plays.  The only reason that you put your uniform on is to make plays. In order to EARN your paycheck, you must make plays.  

Learn from the great collapse of 2023.

Yes.

You guys are way too sensitive. No one can make any type of critique of a player without some guy playing the "gotcha" game.


like I said, Yeldon kisses too many cutback lanes, and he goes down to easily because of how he "pitty-patters" his feet. Those short, choppy steps makes for easy shoestring tackles.


But thanks for the one .gif

Yeldon is gonna get close to 1k rushing yards, maybe more and also has close to 300 receiving yards, as a rookie!. He is 3rd amoung rookies in rushing yards (even though he miss a game), he has done all this with a weak O-line and on a pass heavy team. You say he misses cutback lanes and goes down easily, but his vision and yards after contact/ running power are his strengths, so u are every wrong there... the knock on him coming out of college was his fumbles, which haven't been a problem for him as a pro. Another knock he had coming out of college was that he runs high (shoulder pad level), which he still does need to work on but is very fixable with time.... anyway long story short you don't know what ur talking about...

I actually think Nic Jacobs is in the process of passing Lewis as a blocker. Granted, I think ML is also starting to show some cracks in that department, so it's not all Jacobs.

I agree, I feel like Jacobs can take over, unless Lewis wants to come back at a minimum salary. Regardless, I'm sure Jacobs is ready to beat him in competition.

I would love to develop Neal Sterling into a move TE.
