  1. I agree with urschel that the change won't increase 2 point plays unless it's moved farther or post are moved closer together

    or move the 2 point conversion to the 1 yard line and award teams with a balanced run-and-pass offense, unless you are the Seahawks. This might also kill two birds with one stone and re-value the running back position.

  2. The fact that Upshaw is willing to sacrifice his stats and do what the team needs him to do to win just shows how great of a football player he is. He is selfless and is a team player which are qualities few players actually have. Even though he doesn't have great "sack production", if you actually watch him play you would know how big of an impact he has on this team. Love Upshaw for the player and person that he is and I'd like to see him stay in a purple jersey.

  3. Melvin was my #3 before Arrington, really think he did a great job down the playoff run, and playoffs...Brings great size, and showed he can tackle....

    Same, I think Melvin is the 4th best now. His worst game came against the Patriots but I'm pretty sure that he sustained his shoulder injury that game. The fact that he was signed and was pretty much a plug and play means he's a great fit for us.

  4. Coverage assignments:

     

    Jimmy Smith - Best/tall receiver (Demaryius, Amari Cooper, AJ, Antonio Brown, Torrey, D. Parker, Larry Fitz, Baldwin)

    Lardarius Webb - Nifty, savvy veteran receiver (Boldin, Stills, Baldwin, Jennings, Kearse)

    Kyle Arrington - Shifty slot receiver (John Brown, Sanu, Wheaton, Jarvis Landry, E. Sanders, Keenan)

    Rashaan Melvin - Tall receiver (Martavius Bryant, Michael Floyd, C. Latimer, Bowe, Quick, Chris Matthews)

    Asa Jackson (Depth)

    Tray Walker (Depth)

     

    Will Hill - Receiving TE (Jimmy Graham, Antonio Gates, Jordan Cameron, Heath, Lance Kendricks, Julius Thomas, Eifert)

    Kendrick Lewis - Roaming the backfield

  5. Ed Reed was a great SS and the best FS anyone seen in modern era...

    not comparing Elam to Ed. I think Elam has the tools to be great but not the football IQ. All of his Gator highlights showed that he can contribute to his team because he knew what he was doing and he played fast. Also safety is probably the position with the most learning curve in today's game.

  6. you male it sound like he's better than cobb. He isn't...

     

    Why would you say that? Yeah maybe a team gets desperate with less options but Smith wouldn't be in a tier above Cobb.

    Sure Cobb is better than Torrey but it's simply supply and demand in a small WR market. Teams will also consider Torrey's durability and playoff experience and the expanded cap space. Cobb isn't a WR1, he's like Eric Decker with Peyton Manning throwing the ball to him. There's a reason why he stayed in GB and he was smart to do so. Cobb also took less money to stay in GB and probably would have gotten a $15+ mill. contract if he hit the free market and left GB.

  7. I'm thrilled we got Zuttah....I was just wondering why the Bucs traded him for a draft choice.....his stats look good.....his young and talented.....was this a cap move? Glad it happened, just wondering why? Anybody know the details?

    IDK for sure but it might cause they signed Dietrich-Smith and Zuttah would be an expensive backup at center, so the Bucs thought what the hell why not get a pick out of it. Win-Win for both parties I guess.
