Why does Tre Boston have so many fan boys?

I really want somebody to explain this to me.  He's always been a below average safety.  Bad tackler, poor effort, and bad decisions.  That's not good traits for a safety playing beside Eric Reid.  He's 26, the prime of his career but nobody will offer him a deal including the three teams he has already played for (who only wanted him for 1 year and then said "nope") 

People hated him when he was here.  Do people want him because he was a former unc player?  Is it because he played for the Panthers before?

I completely believe we need to sign a FA safety but I hope it's not Boston.

I like him because he is young and he has seemed to progress a little more than he did when he was here the first time. He is a FS who has range, which I really like. I feel like we need someone like him next to Reid. The improvement of the defensive line should help him as well, especially with Ron calling the defense now. I just like him better than the rest of the free agents. He would be cheap also.

I liked him while he was here, never thought we should've met him walk so we could continue to develop him, and I thought he caught a lot of blowback from the failings of guys like Worley.

Then, after we let him walk, he had an almost pro bowl-worthy year with SD.  And then there's this about last season:

https://www.profootballfocus.com/news/pro-2019-free-agency-profile-tre-boston

"On his third team in the past three seasons after signing a one-year, $1.5 million contract with the Arizona Cardinals, Tre Boston put together another productive season. Boston was the 24th highest-graded safety and his 74.1 overall grade was the second highest-graded season of his young, five-year career. He allowed 18 receptions on 30 targets for 189 yards and two touchdowns while breaking up seven passes and intercepting another three."

So, yeah, I would rather have that than an unknown in Gaulden, who I personally don't think will amount to much.

If he was so good in Arizona, why didn't they offer him a new deal?

I'd rather have Boston than Gaulden too.  But neither are good options.

Why did Arizona fire a coach after one season or Trade up for a Qb then trade him for lower value a year later?? Using Arizona as a base of intelligent decision making.. Maybe your 1st problem..

But we are using PFF as our reasoning for him being good?  Or number of tackles?  

I don't like PFf either ..

But are you really Comparing Reddit to PFf as far as football knowledge??

Really???

      Crazy stat

      By Luuuuuuuuuuke59 · Posted

      The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By 45catfan · Posted

      This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
