Britt Reid.
Dorsey's got a great staff and a decent eye for talent, but there's just no way you're going to say to my face that he's THIS good at nosing around in garbage and finding talent that plays ABOVE their expectations like this.
RNR was a 6th round pick who was cut and then brought back. Kendall Reyes and Jarvis Jones were trash heap signings. If Reyes and Jones especially had the kind of potential to play like they did for us on their old teams, they never would have been available like this.
There's talent evaluation, but then there's coaching and finding ways that guys can be useful. I think Britt Reid has demonstrated in his time on this staff that he knows just about every way to make defensive linemen have the most success that they possibly can on this team.
He's why the only reason I'm pissed about this signing is because Dorsey didn't dive deeper into the dumpster to find a replacement and then supplement the addition with a draft pick (perhaps with a guy like Saccopoo's boy Lotululei in the 3rd round).

It's very cool watching him work. Even with him being very small in stature, he commands respect and coaches by teaching specifics very effectively.
I was impressed by him at training camp.
Gonna be interesting to see who steps up next year on the DL... Howard and Bailey back in the mix ...to go along with Jones after the type of jump DL make from year 1 to year 2...Roches improvement...Logan stuffing the run and helping to force more third and long situations (possibly even more turnovers for the defense)..I'm looking forward to seeing who steps up.
Lots of guys fighting for just a few contracts. |
