MLD Woody Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 I don't remember if this ever got posted when we drafted him, but these are good videos regardless. (Also done with Marshon Lattimore this season if you're interested). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumby73 Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 2nd good videos. but why blame Woody? Blame the board that got put together with Williams properly having something to do with it..Tabor also..Does anybody really care now where Tom Brady played his college ball at?

ballpeen Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 Don't worry Woody. I am glad Sgt. Peppers is on the team. He makes us a way better team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flugel Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 Thanks for the videos Woody! He comes from the same school that gave our defense a very reliable Thom Darden back in the day. It's a different era but hopefully he can add a similar reliability. I know Peppers gets a lot of criticism in here especially when we passed up Malik Hooker/OJ Howard at #12 in order to add a 1st round pick in 2018 and select Peppers at #25 overall. The soph must have had something behind the following honors earned : Lott Trophy (2016) Paul Hornung Award (2016) Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year (2016) Big Ten Freshman of the Year (2015) Unanimous All-American (2016) Second-team All-American (2015) 2× First-team All-Big Ten (2015, 2016) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasAg1969 Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 Peppers needs to get with the other rookie defenders and do a Sgt. Peppers photo. It's the 50th anniversary. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/tv/2017/06/03/sgt-peppers-musical-revolution-howard-goodall-ideal-insight/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jiggins7919 Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 I'm still not sure where exactly Peppers is going to be playing. I know we've said SS, but I keep hearing that Gregg Williams is going to play more than 80% nickel, and if that's the way it is, then Peppers could be used in a number of ways. Playing nickel that much means we're playing it against running downs, and not just traditional passing situations. Will Peppers be at the line a lot? Can he cover man on man? Zone? I have no clue, and I also don't know how long it will take our staff to sort of "figure out" where and how to play the kid. The biggest areas of Peppers that I like are the athletic ability and his desire to play the game. He really seems like a true "football player", and we've drafted people like Justin Gilbert who had all the ability in the world, but weren't "into the game", and we see how that affects them. Peppers has the speed, the strength, and the outright WILL to be a serious player for us, and I'm hoping we figure his role out sooner than later.

Gruden actually called his diversity of roles on Michigan a perfect fit an NFL DC that has to face so many different styles of offense/pass games.

miktoxic Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 Never said didn't like the pick. Just reminds me of the JFF fanboys comin in and placing him at the mantle of greatness before he even stepped onto the field. I like peppa, just very careful anymore to acclaim greatness of a player i like and they fizzle like a wet wick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 yeah, similarities....they were both human beings... but they are different people, Pepper isn't a wild alcoholic/druggie/partier/loser and they play completely different positions and.... geez.

MLD Woody Posted June 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 1) No Michigan fans have appeared on our board since we drafted Peppers. I was here before and I'll be here after. 2) I posted a documentary of his draft process. I never announced him as the savior of the team. You can go back through and read my posts on his skill and what he'll bring. Hell, Gip repeatedly posted that I said he couldn't cover (I didn't). 3) There were also non Aggie fan Browns fans that slobbed all over Johnny's knob. They should be lumped in their too. 4) The fact we didn't draft Hooker is going to make the OSU fans on our board salty for a while I imagine.

gumby73 Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 4) The fact we didn't draft Hooker is going to make the OSU fans on our board salty for a while I imagine. Got to admit I was losing it till the 1st rounder next year was announced. A wHole lot better after Peppers was still there at 25. than went to ecstatic when Njoku was announced. Lattimore got played by a Hooker. Hooker's got'a a shoulder issue that may not fair well for a safety. Peppers has got far to many doors that could open on the field over 1 shutdown CB or S. Just getting this one right would be really nice.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiamat63 Posted June 5, 2017 Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 As it stands we need a centerfielder in the mold of Hooker far more than a SS/nickel like Peppers. That having been said, Jabrill has more potential than Ward and that is the standard I'll be holding him to. I expect his career to follow a similar arc, improving his man coverage in the first year or two - then contending for a probowl nod year 3. He's capable and by everything we've heard, determined enough to be as effective. Especially under a motivator like Gregg Williams, I expect some good things.

The Gipper Posted June 5, 2017 Report Share Posted June 5, 2017 You did say that his covered skills that were questionable which I guess you're right you didn't say specifically that he could not cover just that his coverage skills were questionable if you want to be a woman is that I guess you can but you did say that or you go to someone else he did say that and basically played it to yourself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiamat63 Posted June 6, 2017 Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 I'm on record as saying Peppers coverage was suspect and needed improvement. But he's not going to be asked to be Earl Thomas - as I said. My benchmark for him will be TJ Ward. One he does have the potential to fulfill. Do I see him being the ball hawk on the backend that keeps QB's checking on his alignment? No. That i do not and I can't see him becoming such.
