Rookies turning this thing around

[nickzz]

adarius glanton is a badass name

[MHS831]

so,every rookie on the 53 man roster except Kony Ealy,Carrington Byndum,and David Foucault started,wow, and kudos to ole nippleshorts

[My Goodness My Guinness]

To think there were people calling for Gettleman's head a few weeks ago, and now there is a praise thread for him. This fan base flip flops so hard

[bandu]

If I am not mistaken, Ealy has started a game or two...

You are so right--I am so impressed with Gettlemen and the coaching staff for getting these players ready.

Carringtin Byndum is the only rookie that has not started at some point in the season on our current 53 man roster.and i have said for a long time now,of course start KB,Tre Boston at FS (DeCoud was our weakest link at saftey),Bene Benwikere at CB not nickel (Colin Jones),and Andrew Norwell.

Your crystal ball was true to you.

if it came across as boastful,sorry.

Nothing on Ealy?

 

[SgtJoo]

By the way Ealy has the same amount of hurries that Hardy had in his rookie year.

 

Only 3, so it doesn't mean much. But still. Food for thought. (Big Money CJ didn't break the top 200 in hurries his rookie year)

if it came across as boastful,sorry.

 

Not at all--if my comment came across as sarcastic--sorry. My (mental) tone was supportive.  Have a nice Christmas.

The haters are out in force tonight. So many of you want to blame the schedule and that our rookies are nothing but an illusion.

A week or so ago it was we only faced a 4-3 and well see on a 3-4. Norwell, Turner and Remmer have been doing a great job. Bene, Ealy and Boston are doing well on the defensive side. Are they going to have more mistakes? Are they going to have some Sophomore blues? Probably, but we have shed some vets not worth much and let the rookies play. They are playing well and we look better.

I guess if we beat Atlanta it will be because they were only 6-10 right?

Go Panthers

Prertty sure no one knocked his ability to draft talent...

The knocks on Dave weren't that he sucked in drafting kids

[General_Purr]

I think Lester is better than Harper.. Harper might have that vet leading Ive been here poo but as a on field player Lester is quicker faster and even bigger. 6'3 225 safety.. Him and Boston could be the Dreadful outfielders flying around with the LOCKS

 

ain't no grey on the LOCHZ

[Montsta]

If you wanted Gettleman fired because he didn't re-sign LaFell and dropped Steve Smith, you need to start rethinking things.

[Frizzy350]

Seriously, major props to Gman.

Sure he hasn't addressed our needs directly the way us fans want him to, but he's done a hell of a job in getting us out of cap hell.

His bargain bin FA's have been a random mix, but he's gotten better talent than he should have considering the deals he's given out.

 

Ultimately, his eye for mid, late and UDFA rookie talent is what is going to set us up for the future.  I reiterate, he hasn't addressed team needs directly.  He has been able to cherry pick talent with minimal to no investment.  When you keep that up over time the roster completes itself, you have money to spend in FA on big name players to address glaring holes and you get excessive talent in areas you don't necessarily need allowing you to trade for even more future resources.
