Sneed needs to replace Sorensons spot

What the ****?

Their roles and skill sets could not be more different.

We hate all slow and white defensive players...

But let’s not be stupid and remove Sneed from the CB position. He’s been great.

Don't.

Just...don't.

Noah Igbinoghene, the guy we were rumored to really like and wanted at 32, got his ass raped by Stefon Diggs last Sunday.

Rock Ya-Sin, who we wanted the year before, has not done much of anything for the Colts.

Sneed is better than both so far. Couldn’t be happier.

eh?

The first two didn't happen on Veach's watch.

And hell, the Grubbs trade just didn't matter - cost us a 5th, who cares? Guy got hurt, Allen/Fulton picked up the slack and we ended up back where we started, down a 5th round pick.

If Grubbs is the worst move a team makes in any given YEAR, that team's had a good year. That thing damn sure doesn't deserve to be on any 'worst of' lists.

Robinson was a bit of a yikes, I'll grant you. But even he was a veteran free agent who ended up costing less than $5 million. Would you rather NOT pay that to see a guy get roasted alive in the playoffs by TY Hilton? Yes, yes you would. But that was just a product of a damn thin roster. Pioli left the cupboard pretty bare in terms of depth in the secondary.

Pretty defensible decision w/ little long-term damage done to the roster. The issue was that he was needed in the first place and that wasn't an issue of Dorsey/Reid's doing.

FYP

Just rewatched the first half of the Chargers game and though I didn't spend a lot of time specifically watching Sneed, I did notice his play several times. Overall he had himself a good game, or half. He did allow some receptions, but he was on Keenan for those, and Keenan is a top 10 or 13 WR, so i can't fault the rookie for that. His recovery speed is great, and more importantly his recognition/read and react skills are really good. Plus, he isn't afraid of contact. He's a very willing tackler. I think we got a steal with this guy if he keeps improving this season. Heck, if he keeps going at this rate he might steal Breeland's job before the season is over.

Not wishing for that, just trying to describe the kid's trajectory so far.

Bumping to give this man his well-earned props. The kid is a ****ing beast.

I just want to give a huge pat on the ****ing back to ME for identifying this guy as a potential steal and nailing the pick to the round in my final mock draft of 2020.

:)

Are we supposed to overlook the other 37 guys you always identify that end up sucking ass?

Like Chris Jones, Kareem Hunt, Travis Kelce, Juan Thornhill, Mecole Hardman etc.?

Suck my dick.

I nailed the Willie Gay AND Sneed pick. The Thornhill pick last year. That’s a pattern dude.

Let me know when you’re calling your shot on 2nd, 3rd, and 4th round picks.
