Defensive Hypothetical


PhillyB

Recommended Posts

All of my brilliant ideas come while sitting on the commode. So do all of my worst ones, so this thread is gonna be hit-or-miss. bear with me. :D

If we traded Peppers to Oakland for Asomugah and a first or second-round pick, and got Herm Edwards as defensive coordinator, got rid of lucas and started gamble and asomugah, used the traded pick for a scary pass-rusher to take over pep's spot and shored up the DT position with huge guys via the free agency...

we'd have the best defense in the league.

Can you imagine Herm with that kind of talent in his DB's? Can you imagine having a nasty passrush with the front four, forcing throws to guys being covered by them? Our linebacking corps with a healthy connor, beason, davis, and diggs? seward, even?

the mere thought of it is so awesome i have to go to the bathroom again. dammit. discuss.

Carlos Rodgers is a good CB.

Not an even trade with Pep tho if thats where you are going.

Not where I was going.

Pep and our second rounder for Rogers, their first and a third? Maybe their first, Rogers and Jason Taylor? These are hypotheticals I might consider but still not sure I'd take (nor would I realistically think them possible).

If you're thinking defense when you're sitting on the toilet then you're in the wrong stall.

touche.

I don't see the FO going for taylor... isn't he getting up there in years? plus he strikes me as prone to outside distractions. not a hurney/fox type player IMO.

He would be wasted in our system because we don't use man to man all that much, which is where Asohardname shines.

True, but with him we COULD if we wanted to, freeing up safties for some much-needed blitzes, in case our front four can't get it done. and if we pick up Herm as DC, the schemes will change a little bit at least, enough to work it in.

As a long term replacement, no.

As a one year patch allowing the team to wait till next year to get a long term replacement? Maybe.

Most Skins fans would disagree with you. I'm neither here nor there, but living in Redskin country...most cant stand him.

I want Aso from Oakland in our backfield. One way or another.

    • there seems to be a change or two in his personnel preferences.  For example, the safeties.  Another example:  the smallish NTs are out and 330 is back! 
    • This is a good story--I LOVED his dad as a person and player--I talked to him at an OTA (he was back for his second stint) and he was talking about Moore (the WR from Wake Forest) being so young.  I was with my teenage son and told him, "This is Taylor.  He and I attended the OTAs when you were in Rock Hill as a rookie."  He jokes, "Was he in diapers then?" and laughed.  I imagine Moose III was in diapers when we chatted that day.  So I really would love for this to work out.  However, his stats do not suggest he was anything special in college.
    • I guess there are signs. The combination of the turf toe, hamstring, and knee issues led to questions about his long-term health and affected his draft stock, causing him to fall to the second round.  Here is what I know about a knee injury.  It changes nearly every aspect of your lower body movement.  So the turf toe and hamstring could be related.  It makes him seem injury prone.  I guess the knee was not the most recent injury, so the others could have been a result of favoring the knee. Johnson did not run the 40 at the combine or pro day.  That suggests there is something he feels might drop his value.  So if you downplay the severity of the injury, have a history of possibly related injuries, and refuse to demonstrate (when given multiple opportunities) that you are fully recovered, don't get mad when your stock drops.
