I think Pollard's frame is pretty maxed out as far as putting more weight on.

Pollard is a special teams guy.....that's it.

Great pick by Herm and Carl.

Pollard DOES NOT have the skills.

He's a god-awful tackler, and gets abused in the open field.

This has been your anti-Pollard public service announcement.

Glenn Dorsey should play safety

Yes. Pollard could play linebacker in the new football league.

Larry Atkins says probably not.

Can he be a weakside backer? Absolutely not.

But I'm surprised how much shit he gets. He had no business being in a Tampa 2. that's a defense that requires safeties to cover a ton of ground and Pollard doesn't have a lot of speed. And that's even worse when your pass rush is so bad that you ask them to cover for forever.

I don't think our safeties are nearly as bad as we believe they are. I think they will look a hell of a lot better with even an average pass rush. And I think both Page and Pollard will benefit from a scheme that isn't so demanding of its safeties.

Yes, both of them will magically learn the art of tackling.
