I dunno what to make of LaFell

Sometimes he flashes greatness. Tough catches over middle, solid hands, deceptive speed.

Other time he just doesn't show up at all.

Good game today but the Bucs secondary is terrible.

The offense has struggled all year, so how is it unbelievable that the #2 WR isn't seen at times?

lafell's strength is his blocking ability and his routes. he's not a deep threat by any means.

often i wonder if he would look best in a west-coast offense where plays with timing as a key component would play to his strengths of getting initial separation (but not necessarily keeping it due to his lack of speed.)

LaFell is a good possession receiver to have, but I wouldn't want to rely on him as the go-to-guy, because he isn't fast enough, and I think that he would totally disappear if faced with double coverage with any semblance of consistency. This is not a knock on his ability or even his possible importance to the team going forward. He is what he is, but he has the ability to move the chains when the going gets tough.

    • Kinda meh on Mykel. He seems more like a 4-3 DE. Honestly like Princely better.
    • Daaamn. I didn't realize both squads had so little draft capital. Got me curious as to who might be trade up candidates based on capital. 11 picks - BAL 10 picks - BUF, CLE, DAL, JAX, LAC, MIA, SEA 9 picks - CAR, LV, NE, NO 8 picks - ARI, GB, KC, LAR, NYG, NYJ, PHI, SF, TEN 7 picks - CHI, CIN, DEN, DET, HOU, IND, PIT, WAS 5 picks - ATL 4 picks - MIN   Can't help but wonder if NO is considering a deal with JAX to jump up and take Shedeur since they've got the picks...
    • Looking over the roster and the team has positioned themselves fairly well for this upcoming draft when it comes to addressing the edge group. Clowney and Wonnum are the definite starters with Pat Jones II having split time evenly both on the strong- and the weak-side last year in Minnesota. DJ Johnson is a strong-side guy, Amare Barno weak-side. Further down the roster, Boogie Basham is a strong-side defender as is Kenny Dyson (primarily a ST-contributor tho). Thomas Incoom splits time on both sides of the line. The team seems to be approaching the strong-side with a platoon approach with the weak-side needing the biggest injection of talent. However, they might also be looking to have an answer for life after Clowney as part of the offseason's theme of killing the run on defense. I can better understand the allure of Mykel Williams and Shemar Stewart when trying to look at it through that lens.   Manifesting a trade back for Donovan Ezeiruaku... (シ_ _)シ
