SteelCityColt Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 He played just as many snaps as Earl Okine, a guy who was in the FXFL a few months ago.  Sadly I think I this sums up the current status of Werner's worth. I say sad because I don't think it's through any lack of application, lack of effort and while injuries have had an effect I think above all else he just doesn't have the talent required for the NFL. I was hopeful working as the SAM in our system he could at least be solid but it's not like he's waiting behind an All-Pro for playing time.  Nice hit on special teams thought, a rare highlight of yesterday.    What I will say to people is that's what you get for drafting for need..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TKnight24 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 What point in the game was that tackle? I want to go back and look at it. Thanks!Don't remember for sure. But it was a Punt or Kickoff. I wanna say kickoff which should narrow down the list seeing as how we didn't have many of those Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smonroe Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 He did smoke that dude.

Coffeedrinker Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 I can understand people bashing Freeman he looked like a bad rookie out there yesterday but DQ played a solid game and he was almost as big a reason as Anderson and Langford why the Bills running game was never able to get something going consistently. I need to go back and check the 2nd long run, but on the 1st long run by Williams for a TD it happened because Freeman ran into the pile rather than filling his hole (that one is for you jason S) and maintaining his responsibility.

SMH hopefully its because they are still being worked in slowly. Sio was just acquired but Irving should have played more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coffeedrinker Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Cole had a nice pair of pressures. But yeah, nothing beyond that. Cole, Lowery and Freeman were all horrible.  (When nearly 30% of the D is playing poorly it's going to be a long day. Parry, DQ, Walden and Geathers were all middle of the road... nothing game changing but no mistakes that lead to big plays either. Davis, Anderson, Langford and Adams all played outstanding games. Walden seems to want to rush the passer more... move him to rush LB and bring Werner back in at SAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes it even worse is Lowery (who also didn't look good) whiffed as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krunk Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I've mentioned it on different occasions, but Lowery appears to be pretty soft against the run. Average/Decent vs the pass. I didn't like Adams much in the beginning of last year, but he got better as we played more games. I'll keep watching, but I would be lying if I said I didn't have concerns.

Defjamz26 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 He's definitely gone after the season. It's fine because this coming draft is going to be rich with Edge guys, a lot of whom are NATURAL 3-4 OLBs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
