Bashaud Breeland has failed his physical for Carolina.


Recommended Posts

This is another instance that stinks of a team having second thoughts and backing out. 

 

So shady Andy when this happens. They keep these guys from other teams w money and then throw them back when the money and interest in the position is waning. 

 

If I were the NFLPA I’d definitely be addressing this. 

 

Side note: I’d love to get Breeland.

Weird situation. Apparently he first messed his foot up in 4th grade.

Cornerback Bashaud Breeland told me he cut the back of his left foot while in the Dominican Republic on March 4th. Said he will need to have skin grafted to repair the injury as he did when first injured in the fourth grade. He didn't believe the injury to be serious, that he could still walk on it. He said it never was an issue through high school, college or while with the Redskins.

If this isn't an opportunity I don't know what is.  He went from a cut in the 4th grade to a starter in the NFL.  Sounds like he had a complete recovery to me and now we have a similar cut and he's a few months away from passing a physical. Another perfect Ballard opportunity.  Looks like things might be starting to fall in the right direction for our GM.

Unless his name is Bob Marley, I am not sure why an infected cut on the foot would hold up a deal.

I agree. There seemed to be a lot more deals during the tampering period than in years past. It's almost like teams were calling "dibs" on players knowing they had the physical as an out if they had buyers remorse or something else became available.

    • I'm not saying he is about to be a sack machine but you can see some of his potential as a one gap penetrator with that frame.    
    • Davis came from Alabama. My point of interest as the writer highlighted is he is moving from being a 2 gapper into now only being responsible for a single gap with a lot more penetration from him versus read and react. With his length and power at 6ft 7 300 plus the expectation for him in our scheme is he will be more disruptive. A much more reliable option for us if Grover goes down in addition to whatever else maybe we can do with him.
    • Thank you. You guys are too kind, but I truly appreciate the support.    Perhaps I am being too hard on myself… But my point still stands that anyone who makes it to the NFL, whether practice squad or starter, has achieved something prestigious that only a rare few ever achieve.    Over a million high schoolers play. Of those only 7.8 percent move on to play in college.    Over 80,000 people play in college. Only 0.4 percent make it to opening day in the NFL.    Only 2,016 players make it to NFL rosters. 
    • Davis had a very good rookie season after being drafted in the 2nd round out of Ohio State (I believe).   Graded in the 70’s against both the run and pass.      But his last three years have been disappointing, as he’s graded in the mid-50’s.   The reason I’m so interested in this signing, is (A) I’m sure it was heavily influenced by the new DL coach, Partridge.   And (B) we’re paying him 2/14.  I don’t recall that kind of money ever being given to a basic backup before.   Don’t think Davis is here to push Stewart, the Colts just signed him to 3/39.  That tells me the Colts defensive staff sees him differently.   I don’t know what the plan the staff has come up with for Davis, but I’m looking forward to watching it play out.
