yeah our D was awful last season, i miss mike smith, and i fuckin hate greg williams, also the play calling was awful too, all we did was screens and runs, never took risks.

ya williams was a dissapointment. thought he was going to be a good d coordinator after working with redskins d

I really like that we drafted Jarrett Dilliard and Mike Thomas. Dilliard could possibly be a huge steal for us. Neither really posted an amazing 40 time but if you guys know anything about either of these guys, they have very reliable hands.

Yea Jarret Dillard was a underdawg his hole career.

Correct me if i'm wrong but, I think he walked on at Rice. Damn good Junior season, not that great in his senior year. But if he plays anything like he did 2 years ago, he is a total steal.

Everyone compares him to Derrick Mason, hopefully he'll have the same career.

I really like both of these receivers, both are undersized but can run great routes and have really nice hands. I'm really confident with our Wide Receivers going into the year now with Holt, Walker, Northcutt, Williamson and Underwood. Underwood is one hell of a receiver but just got overshadowed by Kenny Britt because Underwood was being doubled.

Mike Thomas WR Arizona
A slippery slot receiver who did well in postseason all-star games. Is very quick and explosive in and out of his routes. Has the speed to scare defenders down the field. Does a nice job plucking the ball away from his body and is very dangerous after the catch. Possesses impressive footwork and balance in all areas of his game.

Jarett Dillard WR Rice
A very coordinated receiver who possesses great awareness and body control down the field. Is a big time jump-ball threat for his size and consistently goes up and plucks the ball. Has come a long way as a route runner and does a great job sinking his hips and cleanly getting in and out of his breaks. Is very sharp out of his breaks, pays attention to detail and has great hands for the position.

Tiquan Underwood WR Rutgers
A tall, long-armed receiver with the deep speed to get down the field and make plays vertically. Is a good overall athlete and possesses impressive shiftiness and body control in space for his size. Looks explosive with the ball in his hands and works hard after the catch. Has a second gear down the field with an awareness to adjust to the deep ball.

Rashad Jennings RB Liberty
An ultra productive small-school back who possesses an impressive combination of size and explosion for the position. Does a nice job sinking his hips in and out of his cuts and displays good shiftiness for a back his size. Runs hard inside and has a second gear once he gets to the second level. Loves to stiff-arm in space and exhibits the balance to stay on his feet after absorbing the initial blow.

Rashad Jennings played at Pitt for his freshman season in case no one knew that He left not because he wasn't good enough to play but LeSean McCoy was a much higher touted RB. I'm not sure how he fell to the 7th round but he is gonna be a huge steal. He has NFL size and NFL Stamina. Just keep an eye out for him.

He has to play for him to end up a steal.

Thank you for that insight.

is greg jones the back up rb now or does this move him back to fullback? I liked how he played when he filled in for taylor a few years back.

He'll stay at fullback, we have three running backs now, no need to have a hole at fullback now. We have Mojo, Chauncey Washington and Rashad Jennings at running back, Mojo obviously will get mostly all the carries, but I think Rashad could be a nice guy for short yardage and just to beat up the defense and then let Mojo come back in and run past the defense.

Here is a Derek Cox highlight video from this season, just in case any of you haven't seen him yet.

And this is Terrance Knighton.

 

[Leftwich]

I'm really excited to see what the WR's we drafted can do. Anything is better than Reggie Williams...

 

[jaggles82]

i'm interested in holt and williamson, hopefully both stay healthy to prove their stuff

Hopefully Holt can teach Williamson how to make those awesome fucking catches.

 

[jaggles82]

his hands have improved since coming from minnesota so we shall see

 

[Obst]

He hasn't showed any thing last year, so we will see, but I doubt we see anything from him this year.

 

[jags224]

yeah williamson blowed, every wideout this year for us have except matt jones, but he still dropped some big ones, northcutt was alright, i miss ernest wilford...

 

[jaggles82]

he only played in 8 games and some he did not even get thrown to

 

[Obst]

Yeah he didn't get thrown to because he couldn't get open. Face it, Troy is going to be around our 5th option this year if Dillard and Mike Thomas do good in the preseason.

 

[jaggles82]

he didn't get thrown to because of our sorry excuse of a line, which is why drafted the way we did and did not take crabtree

Maybe the rookies wideouts we drafted will light a fire under him and he'll start playing better as well

 

[Obst]

Don't get me wrong, I want to see the South Carolina Troy Williamson in Jacksonville, that would be amazing, I'm just not too high on the guy because his production in the NFL so far, but yeah it would be a pleasant surprise to see him step up this year.
