Brett Kollmann draft recap


Recommended Posts

Pretty much spot on with the offense analysis. Thats great stuff because alot of "professional" talking heads get their info about the team incorrect half the time , this dude is really good at what he does.  

Its great he mentioned us not adressing the oline in the draft and saying how we seem to have so many "space" players, which is very true. No idea if we will actually switch to mostly a quick hitting passing game but it would make sense if the left side of the oline performs poorly. 

IDK about us playing Jackson mostly in nickle and Gaulden at outside CB.. I guess its possible b/c they're rookies and we could be trying just about anything and everything to finally get a functional secondary unit again. But I coulda swore Rivera and Hurney said that they're trying to make Gaulden into a Saftey and they plan to play Jackson alot on the outside?

Jackson isn't an outside corner. It would be a fail on the coaches part to put him there.

Why not?

Doesn't have the technique or size for it at this point in his career. May struggle to get to outside corner type weight. Jackson is RAW, technique wise. People have to understand this isn't a guy that has been playing corner for a long time. You put him outside, in our division against these receivers, you're asking for trouble.

I think he'll prove to be a slot corner his whole career, honestly. He's got the ability to be the best slot guy in football, which is an important position. Maybe he develops into more, but that's where I see him.

Donte can.play outside. 

Obviously you wouldn't want him lined up against Evans or Jones, but Ginn, and other normal size receivers, donte can play. 

 

 

Can he? Decently. But he's much better in the slot. He went to DBU for crying out loud. They played him in the slot, where he excelled. 

I've watched every game of the mans career lol.

Tbh I’d be ecstatic if we looked at him to play free safety. LSU showed a few looks out of there for him and he reacted and did well.

Of course, he likely won’t. But doesn’t hurt to dream.

I think that would be another area where he'd excel. Again, a position you'd like to see him put some weight on for, but allowing him to sit back and survey and use his speed to attack the ball would be interesting, to say the least. Last year they kind of moved him into the TM7 role. I liked him there.

    • If Canales has helped Bryce a “poo ton” and this is what we have then what’s the fuging point? And the offense wasn’t humming with Dalton in there either, except against the raiders who’ll likely be firing their coach after this season.  XL is probably the fourth best looking receiving option on the team right now behind thielen, Coker, and sanders. I don’t think anyone would disagree with that. Who cares about total receiving yards when everyone else has missed time and there’s like 180 yards of receiving a game.  and lmao they were “believing” shut the fug up. They lost and for the most part those games were all the defense shutting down the other team. The chiefs turned around and gave up an actual impressive stat line to Aiden O’Connell and I not even the most delusional raiders fans think that means anything. Bryce did nothing against the eagles, the Bucs are a mash unit, and any one of us could have done that Bryce did against the giants and saints.  And as far as who they’d get, they didn’t have any trouble hiring the guy you’re tripping over yourself to defend. They also could have hired Dan Quinn, who’s actually succeeding with a young qb.  And people are acting like the risk of getting paid for not working for five years is a negative. Canales is going to spend the next half a decade getting paid to watch porn in his Bible camp office.
    • the Dallas game definitely quelled the hype. his biggest issue will always be his size, and that shows when he gets sacked. he's simply not big or strong enough to protect the ball. even in the KC game, he fumbled it on a basic sack and thank god icky landed on it. INT's are going to happen, most fans don't understand that tipped balls and wrong routes account for most interceptions. but the wet-bar-of-soap type fumbles upon contact are a huge reg flag. the common theme with players like Darnold and Mayfield who previously played for us and are now excelling makes me want to practice patience more when it comes to the QB position. I think Bryce bought himself another season, perhaps with more weapons. I do like the idea of adding a QB whether that's a FA or mid round rookie. if the same mistakes occur next season and we see no further growth or most importantly, wins, then it will be time to move on. just a quick reminder though, football is not an individual sport. QB is just one position, albeit the most important. 
    • There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season?
