You what they say about folks who assume? I'm talking about Suggs, and it's my opinion. I said he is a descent player just not a star. You can be critical without being called fair weathered or it be called overreacting, I care about this team and am very passionate about it.

Descent player? Is that a pun?

you can write whatever you like that´s what those forums are there for! there will be people who don´t agree with your opinion though.
i don´t question your love for the team or your passion.
but if you are the only player on the team with that kinda skillset and be sent out to get to the qb on your own on every play it´s kinda hard to put on big numbers isn´t it!?!

Antwan Barnes has been all over Tom Brady in the Chargers game......

Was that 7th Rounder really worth it??
[/quote]

Well I think the expectations at the time was that Kindle would be signed and playing. That was at the height of his positive news.

Yeah you wonder if he could make an impact on these third and long situations. The Eagles cut him too, maybe he just fits in with the Chargers better.

The guys who get Sizzle kinda ($) paper - are expected to get to the QB on a regular basis. In the past I have seen Suggs make up for it by setting the edge on all run plays to his side. But not this year. I have seen the edges get cllapsed on Suggs side of the field and on JJ's side too on a regular basis.

So, I still love Sizzle for his man-up-ness and his charactr, but I have to say I agree with your assessment on his star quality this year.

JJ hasn't be as good this yr in pass coverage or rushing passer.. teams seem to be running a lot easier on us than I can ever remember.. and we don't get sacks at all.. hopefully something changes stylistically within the Bye Week. because this semi-cover 2 drop linebackers in coverage most downs isn't work because we don't have little 220lb linebackers running around.. All preseason i kept reading articles about increasing pressure to help the secondary and whatever else.. Ok we lost kindle to injury big deal guy never played a down for us yet so where is the pressure... Corners can't seem to make plays even when the balls through straight to them..

So has it been disclosed that it was only a 7th rounder?

Yea but I don't even know if we get the 7th rounder because it was conditional. We might have gotten nothing.

I'm pretty sure it was a swap. We get their 6th rounder and we give them our 7th. Or something like that.

If it was a 5th round pick it COULD be worth it Ozzie does a great job of finding good undrafted players.
I think Ozzie is overrated in other aspects though. He is still a great GM and gets us good players. But in the first rounds he seems to have trouble finding people. Then in later rounds or in UFA we find people that work really hard and are pretty consistently good players.

Overrated? Please. The only GM whose drafted better than Ozzie since he became the GM is Polian in Indy.

Maybe we should just take a chance on Merriman, he cant be worse than JJ in the pass rush.

Agreed.

I agree. But we probably won't even get a chance at getting him because of our record.

Don't trick yourselves into thinking that he is an elite pass rusher. He isn't. He is, however, one of the best OVERALL linebackers in the league in terms of run defense and pass defense. You won't find many linebackers, save Harrison and Woodley, who are better in both phases than Suggs.

The entire D puts up a stinker and we want to single out the one guy who brought the closes thing to pressure the Ravens got on Fitzpatrick.

I love this fan-base...

Suggs is a average player, who makes has little or no impact on the game. This guy doesn't show up, made zero plays today. He will get a sack, but this season I can't recall it coming in key spots. Today was a prime example of him not doing anything, he's the rush linebacker but doesn't produce.
[/quote]

It makes me laugh that he wanted a lot of money because he is a DE that rushes the passer but is also an OLB. He wanted hybrid money and he is playing like a hybrid car....all hype and little gas in the tank.

Oh and by the way.

Former Raven, Antwaan Barnes had 2 sacks against the Patriots today.

I love how if Suggs doesn't get a sack, he's just an "average" player and is apparently a waste of a position in the linebacking corp.
