Colts claim Jermaine Grace, waive Darnell Sankey

Huge canes fan here since early 80s and watch just about every game. IMO grace was a 3rd or 4th rd player based on talent and previous level of play. Missing last year hurt him along with the struggles the program has faced during the Al Golden (Shannon as well) era. He can really run. 

 

Excluding Dorsett, a lot of canes players have been under drafted. Miami has had a lot of talent but due to poor player development or a really poor defensive schemes they have been overlooked. Guys like Sam shields, Allen hurns, Stacey coley, Adrian Colbert, Calais Campbell etc. we’re better than their draft position. 

 

Richt and Manny Diaz have really changed the program and the defensive scheme is now very aggressive again. 

 

For 2018 the draft there are a couple of really under the radar talents in Dt RJ McIntosh (jr) and TE Chris Herndon. 

 

Last weekend 2 young stud DEs embarrassed projected 1st rd OT McGlinchey. True fr Jon Garvin blew by him with a strip sack and fumble recovery.

    • Yeah, that was one of his two drops last season.   He also had two contested catches and forced a pass interference in the end zone, in that same game.
    • He said ,  "most were probably. So he is not saying all women want to get pregnant this is a nonissue but just another stupid thing for the crazies trying to dictate every single spoken word every second of every day.  "SHOCKING"??????
    • I think there's a significant difference between blaming him for the Houston loss, and saying that he missed the throw on the game deciding play. It wasn't entirely his fault we lost, but he certainly contributed to the loss. I don't think the 'one play away' stuff is meant in a negative way toward Minshew at all. I think it's meant as an acknowledgment that the team isn't totally awful, despite there being some question marks.   And I'm sure there are some people who are being more negative about Minshew and the way the season ended, but I don't think that's the common sentiment.   Regarding Pierce, I don't think a receiver like him can succeed with a QB like Minshew. You made a good point in the AD thread that Pierce's usage is also related to scheme, and it doesn't seem like Steichen has seen fit to adjust the scheme so Pierce can be used more. That's telling, and it needs to be acknowledged that Pierce has to play/practice better if he wants more opportunities. But it's also pretty obvious that Minshew struggles to throw the big routes that Pierce is asked to run (he reportedly ran more go/post routes than any other WR last year), not to mention the QBs we had in 2022.    It just seems like there's little debate about what Minshew is: He's a limited QB, and the offense will be capped by his limitations. He did a really good job filling in last year, and he deserves credit for being one of the best backup QBs in the league. He's still clearly a backup level QB. You'll get some nice moments, and some frustrating failures. Acknowledging that doesn't mean he's being blamed for the team not going further last season. That's not how I read it at all.
