4 things...
Chase Daniel is fun to watch. My favorite Tiger ever, and he just makes plays. Not calling for him to start by any means. I just enjoy his success.
Ramik Wilson surprised me tonight. I like him, but thought he had a steep learning curve to contribute. He may not. Eric Fisher looked good. Other than the one hold, he was flawless. This one hurts. I don't want to be this guy, and I hope I'm wrong, but... Dee Ford is a bust. In the run game, he cannot get off a block to save his life. He's obviously big and strong enough for the position, but he has no power. Just a block magnet. In the pass game, he's got elite speed, but he can't turn the corner. He gets washed past the Q every time. It's something that can be taught... but he isn't even attempting to get a good lean at this point. |
I think Daniels could step right into the starting role without missing a beat.

That's all we can ask, is that some of the players are trending upward. No way will all players improve.

I think there may eventually be a true challenger for Alex in Chase McDaniels. He seems he may be every bit as good as he played that last game, last year, was it?

I enjoyed watching Daniel. And I always root for him to succeed.
But let's also be honest. He stared down receivers all night who just happened to come open. While he took advantage, I think his success tonight was more about circumstance than anything. But it is fun to watch. |
Didn't get a chance to watch the game last year but I said the same thing last year about Ford lacking a natural "bend". IMO he could be an elite pass rusher if he somehow had the balance and agility to turn the corner. I'm not 100% sure that is something that can be taught though. Sad to hear his run defense is still suspect.
good to hear about Wilson and Fisher. Did March look any good? |

Nice Nice, i'm excited to see how things end up playing out at that spot. I liked Alexander even more than Wilson after watching their clips after the draft. Sounds like Ole Mauga better get healthy.

I have no doubt about that. |

He needs more game time & he would learn the nuisance of the game. |
The nuisance of the game?
