So the first round pick has not been a factor at all this year. What's the deal? Was it a huge reach? Injuries? Thankfully we got a first rd talent in Metcslf this year and I think Blair will be good as well.
Agree with everything you said except your assessment of Greene. Because he came in so young at age 20 and because of the progress we've seen this year I'm optimistic he'll reach at least "quality starter" level. Obviously time will tell.Rat":iz39jzw5 said:I certainly wasn't thinking we would get a Bosa-type rookie season from Collier, but I don't think it's unfair to suggest that a little more was expected from him at this point. Hopefully, another offseason with the team will get him going. He wouldn't be the first.
We could definitely use him next year, as the cupboard looks pretty bare, even if we can reach an agreement with Clowney; something both sides seem motivated to do in the early going. Ziggy is unreliable and I'm not sure he's worth bringing back at any price. I know Greene has been in some big plays lately, but I've been underwhelmed with him and don't see anything more than maybe a decent backup who signs a modest contract with somebody else when his rookie deal is up,
We might be in a position to invest another pick in the first few rounds on a DE, but I've always adopted the school of thought that pass rushers should always be in heavy consideration early anyway unless the group you have is absolutely ridiculous. You can always find snaps for them.
