What The "experts" Are Saying About Our Draft

They all comment that we did not address our primary need, DT. Here is why:

Andre Neblett, 23

Frank Kearse, 23

Sione Fua, 23

Terrell McClain 23

Jason Shirly, 26

Ron Edwards, 32

LB and G were bigger needs, but the media tends to forget about players on IR or the development of rookies. Oh, and if you wanted an elite DE:

Greg Hardy, 23

Thomas Keiser, 23

Eric Norwood, 23

Charles Johnson 25

Antwan Applewhite 26

Ages from Panthers,com

I think you can scratch off Norwood off that list.

Alexander looked explosive as hell on his highlight tape. Granted, it was a highlight tape but the dude looks quick.

love Alexander's explosive plays too and of course his tremendous wingspan will help him knock the ball out of QB's hand, even if he doesn't beat OT to the QB and his ability to knock down passes,but Keiser looked great with such limited playing time and the off-season should help his development even more; I just don't know who will be activated on Gameday

Heard bill polian yesterday call Marty an excellent gm on espn.

I heard that too. This was a RR pick. He said that Marty was evaluating Lewis and RR noticed Alexander on Marty's computer. RR also is the one who wanted Silalotu and JR Campbell, a pick Gil Brandt called, "stealing." Marty's GM skills were displayed when Fox was a lame duck and he drafted future stars like Clausen, Armanti, and Norwood--one heck of a draft. This team is getting a personality now/

Now that you guys drafted a QB, shouldn't you be bloviating on the www.racistmascotredskinfans.com message board?

You mean two QB's, which everyone including me is scratching their heads at?

Sounds like they're hedging their bet on RG3 a little bit before he's even taken the field, typical Skins move, it's why they are doomed to failure.

I really think we had an excellent draft and getting both Alexander and Adams in the 4th will turn out to be HUGE value picks.

I agree, I'm happy with our draft. I certainly feel better now than before the draft. Our young dlinemen and secondary haave some good potential .

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Karlaftis and Danna have been pretty inconsistent so teams have been doubling Jones and able to contain their pass rush.   But the good thing is that yesterday, we schemed well against Steve Spags Defense, Canales married the surrounding personnel with his QB through play designs within his comfort zone and was able to get downfield at will.  He was able to execute higher difficulty throws and look a lot more comfortable.  It tells me that Canales has a good system in mind, and had an edge gameplanning wise against Spagnuolo - which is nice to see.  It's a bit to see-saw at times with either going way too pass heavy or way too run heavy, but I think he's finding out what works.  It takes time to have it come together, and sure, I could see regression happen against a better front-7, but this was good for the entire system gelling.

      This was evident first two weeks of season. I don’t see any issues with physical tools since he came back. I think he is a player that must play with confidence to overcome those size limitations and he’s doing that.

      Crazy stat

      Still 3-10 on passes over 15 yards.  At least he's not scared to merely attempt them anymore.  Where I see improvement is the 10-15 yard range.  He was 6-6.  Bryce of old was scatter shot on anything beyond 10 yards and the further out, the worse the accuracy.
