Oof we are going to miss Shaq but nice to see DJ developing. Looks like Zavala has turned into the better guard over Brady as well 

DJ is 26 years old in a couple weeks. He should be developed already. He’ll be 29 in the first year of his second contract.

I don’t know why we keep drafting projects that are already older. Burns is in his 6th year in the league and he’s only 6 months older than DJ.

Well would you prefer he doesnt develop at all? We drafted him it’s done, let’s hope it pans out.

Exactly, we have to develop rotational players, not just starters.  Not every draft pick has to be a starter.

I coached with Dwight Hollier, former Tar Heel, Miami Dolphin and Indy Colt LB--he told me basically that the Special Teams coach is just as vocal as the DC and OC.  He said, "if you aren't starting, you better be making noise on special teams.  If you think about it, with 22 starters and 3 special teams specialists, that only leaves another 22 players or so on the active roster--the reserves, in other words.  He said if you are in that group, you better be a factor on special teams because when they cut players, they talk to the coordinators--and if you are a second teamer, the special teams coordinator's voice is just as loud as the defensive coordinator's voice. (He was probably talking from a LB perspective)

Good stuff. If you go all the way down to 43 you can find a 6th overall pick in his 3rd season.  
 

Icky’s 17 losses matches the combined total of Hunt, Lewis, Corbett and Motion. 
I don’t see Zavala.

    • They gave him franchise QB money. Sorry but if you don't earn it you can be embarrassed.   He's rich he can take it. Stop feeling sorry for people who can't live up to their contract. This isn't a sport to be soft. Daniels deserves to give back some of that money he stole if you ask me.
    • And it was coming off of a bye week. Perhaps he should vacation a bit in Germany in the off season, something certainly seemed to help him there.  No, really... He showed maturation and the possibility that he's turning a corner. That wasn't the NY Giants out there, but the back to back Super Bowl champions with the #3 defense in the league, with them coming off of a prime time loss. And that was a 9-1 team we just played literally down to the last second. Bryce played so well that maybe, maybe he wins over some nay-sayers. It's still early, though, but what a nice breath of fresh air that was. You can win quite a few games if that is your normal performance. It is obvious that we are still on the learning curve, though. But that was one helluva test he just took. Some of these QBs coming out of college just don't have a lot of games under their belts, especially in top end programs. They are perhaps just a year to two years behind center in games that matter before they move up. It can take them some time to hit their stride. We can still be cautious about our future and still celebrate a great game by the kid, though, and we should. He earned the laurels today, or had before they were snatched away at the last second.
