I like what im seeing from him, Heard his 1st start in the NFL went for 3 sacks on Jameis Winston completely wrecking the game and a Win. 

 

HOPE HE MAKES THE TEAM!!!

He got 2 sacks and 5 tackles in the game. 


The problem is, since that game on Oct 04, 2015 he has played in 15 games and in those 15 games he got 1.5 sacks, 9 tackles and 4 asst.

 

Not saying, he's no good.  I know he has had issues with injuries but the minimum production after that first games shows me he is predictable with his pass rush moves and once a team has some film on him they counter him pretty easily.

Well hopefully he has corrected those flaws and Robert helps him with some counters because he definitely has some dance moves

What a difference a month can make.

I was like, what is the deal with this thread.  Who the heck is Delaire?  It's kinda like that guy who was calling the naysayers bad judges of talent who didn't watch the film for that RB that the Colts signed from Tennessee and was cut within a week.  

 

If you dont' know the guys name, or he has never done anything of note, chances are, he'll be gone the second we want to investigate another guy who hasn't done anything of note.

This was the reason I decided to revisit this thread...

Yeah, but Basham is still here because he was drafted by Ballard, I just don't see any other reason at this point. Hope Turay provides a spark.

 

I would have liked to have seen what Delaire could bring to the table as opposed to Basham but they felt they could coach up Basham more, I guess???

It’s possible that’s what they’re thinking. Delaire has hit his ceiling, but Basham still has some room to grow.

There is still more time for evaluation, and I like him but as it stands right now I haven't seen the advantages of letting go of Delaire or for that matter John Simon to replace them with Al Quadin Muhammad. I'm not down on him but I haven't seen the explosiveness I thought I'd see. I will give it more time though.

I think Mohammad is an Eberflus guy and Basham is a Ballard guy.

    • Pass rush.     That is the key.  Control the line.  Make him make plays.  Make him uncomfortable.  Hey, if he Stroud beats us with his talent and we’re making him complete these great plays, then chalk it up to the game.  But we can’t allow him (and any other qb) to be comfortable and pick us apart.     I hope we see our front 4 provide that pressure because that will make everything else much easier.  I honestly believe we have the corners for our scheme in Moore, Brents, and jones.  But we don’t have the pressure.  Or the FS unfortunately.  Our corners jobs in this scheme isn’t to run step for step with wide receivers.  It’s to stick with them and prevent YAC.  Moore is the best nickel in the game, Jones was one of the best corners PERIOD in preventing YAC, and I think a healthy Brents will be good too.
    • Agreed.  After this last off season, I kind of give Ballard a pass on taking long to find a certified DE (if Latu pans out).  Like QBs, they don’t grow on trees.  You either have to draft one high, get lucky with one in the draft, or sign one in FA for loads of cash.  All I can ask for him as GM to do is try.  He hasn’t been perfect by any means but at least he’s tried with the DE position specifically.   i also think Shane being here has changed his thinking.  Before, Ballard might’ve went with Turner due to the higher upside.  But maybe Shane differs and wants proven players.     Either way, I’m glad we possibly have our stud at a premium position for the next 5 years at a cheap rate.     And gotta thank the Falcons for us landing Latu.  Lol
    • Sure, but I know you're smart enough to get the gist of this post - a potent offense is more important than a good defense.     Today's NFL favors the O in the rule book and encourages scoring.  D's have to hang in there and most play it safe.   Of course, it's simple, of course it's not easy to have an elite O, and of course it doesn't always lead to wins.  But, in my opinion, it's the way a GM should build a team.  (Yes, I know about the Manning years.  That's another conversation)
