Which HOF QB was also a state champion typist when he was in high school? I didn’t know without looking it up. That one was interesting, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetworks Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 17 hours ago, Copernicus said: Ourlads' Profile: 2019 Guide: What Ourlads' NFL Scouting Services said about ROSS PIERSCHBACHER: Alabama, 6035 307 5.22. Four year starter from Cedar Falls, IA. Started 42 games at left guard for the Tide before moving over to center in the spring of 2018. A disciplined player who rarely draws a penalty to hurt his team. Good eyes and awareness to pick up inside twist stunts. Plays with hand strength and violence. Runs his feet on choke blocks. Works to anchor down a bull rush. Bends his knees and keeps his hands high in pass protection. Plays with good technique and body control. Versatile enough to play all three inside positions. Quick enough to snap and pull to the perimeter. The All SEC first-team lineman can adjust on the run. Demonstrates good depth and approach on pulls to kick out and log perimeter support. Experienced in both shotgun and a conventional snap. Needs to get stronger to anchor the inside push of 325-pound plus nose tackles. OSR:37/39. Fourth/fifth round. (A- 32 1/8, H-10, BP-20, 10-1.83). He could be slower than ****, weak as ****, but he sure as hell won me over with this trait, something our current C struggles with mightily. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowles Movement Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 18 hours ago, Jets1958 said: I agree. What makes Washington cut their 2018 5th round pick after 1 year? Then Philly tries him for one year and then cuts him. Then the Jets take him in 2021 and keep him on the PS all year and never call him up. All that tells me he's not very good. Quincy Williams was a third rd pick by Jacksonville that they saw no use for. He’s been playing well for us. Sometimes it’s scheme or personalities. Sometimes a player responds to a new opportunity. You may very well be right but the timing is right to find out. If he sucks balls, they don’t need to play him the entire game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FidelioJet Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Feeney is awesome but he doesn’t like Zach Wilson’s hair, doesn’t like his attitude and happy when he gets hurt. He’s going to let the Bucs run free - with the hopes getting Zach killed. But as a Chess master, he has a long term plan. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I read this last week I cringed thinking that Feeney would be a turnstile and Zach would get injured. Couldnt believe how well Feeney played Sunday. Even shocking. In a season where Feeney became a bit of a punchline, maybe we found something here in an adequate (or even more) backup at center? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One game is not much of a sample size but I wonder if the coaching staff knew this before signing him and felt they could rely on him if McGovern went down with injury 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
