The Gipper Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 How do you all think he would compare to Kirko? Better, worse, same? Or, should I say even: Schobert? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 Kinda remember the name from Clemson... not so much the player. Short, stout, nice combine... 30 reps... OK-ish 40, but nicer 10-yd split. Decent 3-cone 29 career starts including 7 at MLB in a 4-3... pretty active inside. Triple the starts at OLB all in a 3-4. Feels like he's going back inside for us to compete to be our Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATOM Posted March 20, 2020 Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 he is not enough mostly a special teamer i would think maybe play in rotation but not a starter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For depth, OK. He's serviceable. I guess they got to add someone considering they lost two, right? They will be drafting a LB for sure.

Orion Posted March 20, 2020 Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 His numbers (tackles) don't scream Pro Bowl that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This pretty much sums up what they were looking at for him. A Joe S replacement is a real stretch. ......SI...Goodson, who will be 27 this season, is more of a downhill, thumping linebacker that can take on and shed blocks to get to the ball carrier. He tested really well as an athlete for the position coming out of Clemson, but doesn't offer much in pass coverage....... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double edged sword here. I liked Shobert's ability to play pass coverage zones.....but we've gotta stop the run somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, your answer to my question of how he compares to Kirko of Schobert is: he is not as good....and we need to keep working on that position? Fare thee well.

For 2 years in GW defense, the all 22's would show under Williams, Gregg had no concerns about keeping 2nd level blockers off our LB'ers..numerous times both our DT's were asked only to get to the QB.. so we shot right past the RB with ball in the hole. And Joe was smothered, mostly by Guards. if only 1 DT sat in any kind of zone against the run first? it might have helped? Next DC,, Once Wilks lost Vernon & Myles? It was the same old DT's shooting gaps & guessing at running lanes. Except at Baltimore, where we stayed at home & never roamed. clearly, We don't have Woods D-front talent upfront as the 9'ers.. but if ya ever watched Luke Kuechly & Thomas Davis stay clean to make most their teams tackles getting to a SB..Nor did the Panthers... yep, 2 very good LB'ers that we don't have either...but 1) keeping them clean was key.. 2) LB's that can run & able to get off blocks.. both maybe our answers to stopping the run .. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, and straight up LB thumpers are a dying breed, unless you can always guess when a team is going to run the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was playing as a 3-4 OLB most of the time... not the position to post a ton of tackles... The season he spent as a 4-3 Mike was much more productive. He's our starting MLB in 2020... BOOK IT! Damn... been forever since I booked anything.... felt kinda good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the sound of a thumping linebacker in the morning. It sounds like.... victory. In obvious pass situations he runs to the sideline... lots of teams do this.
