I thought that Carter showed some flashes too.  Not sure if it was enough to keep him but we'll see.  I think he's just so inconsistent.  I didn't see much else from tonight except how bad that Bennett was.  Ugh...gotta feel that pressure bro!  Watch those windows too.  Not sure if he is hitting his target and just aiming poorly or if he's just got accuracy issues.

We're keeping carter. No doubts bout that. He's also essentially a rookie so he's gonna have his ups and downs.

Geathers looks good. I'm excited for this guy.

Let's temper the Bob and Troy talk. He played pretty good against 2s and 3s in a meaningless game. In the first Bengals series he was out of place on at least one or two plays. Totally expected from a rookie.

That said, I liked his athleticism. He looks real good for a rookie and I hope he's eventually our starter for year to come.

Also, I thought Smith looked a lot better.

He was all over the field tonight and had that nasty Bob sanders-esque hit on that tight end and made him fumble.

 

He seems like a play maker to me.  The fumble recovery on the onside kick last week was big.  Had a forced fumble and a fumble recovery last night, too.

 

We need playmakers.  I like this kid.

This is the most he's flashed all pre-season. He showed what his true potential is, which is to be a game changing type player who can make big plays.

However, he still needs a lot of work. Needs to get better at knowing his assignment and when he needs to come up or drop. He was out of position several times against the Bengals. But it was his best game so far

Geathers and Price were solid- made good reads, reacted well. The score was meaningless really. The new guys we needed to know would make an impact did- Parry and Anderson are going to be dependable, tough and nasty for years to come. Herrera is impressing. Silvestre is proving he can ball. Duron Carter finally makes an impact and Varga is surpassing my expectations. I would take him over Tipton right now. I'm pretty impressed with that game to be honest.

All I can remember is him getting dragged 5 yards while holding onto the running back.....

The back had momentum and lowered his helmet into a standing still Geathers. At least he took the right angle and completed the tackle unlike some previous safetys we've had.

      By krunk · Posted

      When did he consult you about who they think is elite?

      I have heard one GM who says he thinks LTs and defensive players may go earlier than expected. Interesting ro see who wil   Bowers won't be there at 15. He is special if u watch the tape.

      If we stay at 15 and pick a player I would expect that player to be one of 19 he graded as a 1st rd talent.   The only WR’s I have seen in the top 20 of the entire draft are Harrison, Nabors and Odunze.  He can sit and hope if he wants but when he’s that close to possibly getting elite seems like it would be smart to move up and get one of them.  And who cares if we have to pay him a big second contract.  You should be happy you hit on a pick.  You really prefer a role player instead of elite?  Because of money.  Omg that’s an unbelievable take.  I can’t believe it.  Wow!

      Ballard pre-draft presser

      By Defjamz26 · Posted

      It’s hard to get a read from Ballard's presser. It almost seemed liked he co-signed his young DB room and said they’re just going to roll the dice with what they have but maybe add some competition. I get that he feels they can take a leap, but I’m not sure I can be convinced that Flowers or Jones will ever be better than Quinyon Mitchell or Cooper DeJean.   Of all of Ballard’s philosophies regarding team building (specifically related to the draft) the one I have the most issue with is the over confidence and eagerness to bank on low round players and UDFA’s as long term solutions. You have a projected starting secondary consisting a 7th round pick from Yale who did not play well last season, a 7th round corner who well outplayed his draft position, but has clear limitations athletically, a 3rd round safety who is gifted athletically, but we still don’t know if he’s better as FS or SS, and a 2nd round pick who showed great flashes when healthy but is still a question mark.    I get rolling the dice with JuJu, but I don’t see why you wouldn’t look for upgrades for Thomas and Jones/Flowers. I know he said he’d like to add competition there, but drafting a guy 4th round likely isn’t going to give your CB group a boost. I know he said they’re technically not young in his eyes, but they are young. If you’re going to add another “young” corner, add one with high end traits and skills. I’m not dead set on Mitchell or DeJean in round 1 or bust because I also like a couple day 2 corners. I’m just saying I’d much rather take a shot with one of them than just run it back with the same group.   Where we really need talent at for sure though is Edge.
