Here's what caught my eye:

- Remmers more effective in pass blocking than run blocking (bodes well for Cam's strong side protection)

- Josh Norman's penalties cost him -3. Would like to see that drop this year with his increased maturity and decision making.

- Norwell is a road grader when it comes to run blocking. Turner is a better pass protector.

- Philly Brown 1.5 in the running game? Did he run that many sweeps/reverses?

- Kawann seems to have developed into a better player (statwise) than Star. Maybe because Star's role is as more of a space eater?

- Cason -14.7 pass coverage rating. ughh. dude was leading in votes for CB at one point last year.

Philly our best WR according to PFF...

 

And our best in pass rating is Bersin, with 0.1.

 

Wow were our WRs bad last year.

Well... I know Kelvin had some drops and not enough YAC.  But still I'll take his 1008 yards, 9 TDs, and his dangerous playmaking ability.  If that's "BAD" I'm not too worried, especially remembering how often he was double covered.  With more receiving threats, we should be just fine.

I was surprised at the negative grades for Ealy, Horton & Addison.  I didn't realize that CJ was the only one of our primary DBs last year (obviously not counting Hardy or Alexander) with positive grades.  I had assumed we were ok, not great at this position.  Now, it's looking a little weaker than I thought. 

Would love a more knowledgeable commenter to help put these stats & the currently understood strengths/weaknesses of our DBs in perspective.  Thanks.

And here's to hoping Big Frank will play lights out this year!

Addison is mainly a pass rusher, hence his poor grade in the run and pass coverage. Horton is the opposite, providing solid defense against the run, but almost nothing in the way of pass rush.

the ealy thing is me mighty concerned.  someone tell me why I shouldn't be.

Rookie DE's rarely have a strong first year. Especially with how bad the secondary was behind him most of the year.

Ealy's first year: 4 sacks, 1 FF, 12 tackles

Hardy's first year: 3 sacks, 2 FF, 30 tackles

CJ's first full year (08): 6 sacks, 1 FF, 25 tackles

I was just commenting on PFF's grades, not my opinion.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      You do realize that raw stats don't make someone a better or worse player, right? To begin with, the last time I checked, 1,319 is more yards than 1,258, so T-Mac had more yards (but I'll forgive you as a typo there and say you meant catches lol), but that's before even factoring in that Hunter did his in 13 games vs 12 for T-Mac because Arizona didn't make a bowl game. It's also completely ignoring the team around each player.  If you think Hunter having the 8th place finisher in the Heisman voting at QB isn't going to result in helping his top WRs stats, then you're sticking your head in the sand to purposefully not see it. Hunter's QB had 353 completions for 4,134 yards and 37 TDs vs T-Mac's QB who had 260 completions for 2,958 yards and 18 TDs. But sure, let's rank NFL prospects by their stats and say the guy with more catches and TDs is the better prospect.  So on that note, I now change my mind, T-Mac is no longer the best WR in the draft, it's Nick Nash who had 104 rec, 1,382 yards, and 16 TDs, all numbers better than Hunter's... because that's how this is done, right? As I've said before, if someone wants to like a player better than someone else that's totally fair, but come with real reasons, talk about their play, but to talk about things like stats as your reasoning, when you ignore the obvious and massive flaws in using those stats in that way, just makes you look dumb.

      Nah you don't go out and put up the numbers he did without being able to run routes dude is a football junky so he works on his craft he isn’t THAT much more athletic than other players to just be able to go out and do whatever and succeed at that level
