04:18 Eagles News Miles Sanders named cognitive learning involves second most likely candidate to win Rookie of the Year - Bleeding Green Nation | |
2. RB miles sanders, philadelphia eagles. Running back production is incredibly dependent on the offensive line, and sanders has that edge in a big way over josh jacobs.Cognitive learning involves the eagles’ offensive line was ranked top 10 in the NFL last season in terms of run blocking, and they added tackle andre dillard in round 1.Cognitive learning involves sanders wasn’t too far a cry from last year’s rookie of the year either, with an 83.1 rushing grade compared to saquon barkley’s 84.1 in his last season at penn state.Cognitive learning involves “I was surprised [miles sanders] went that high. Talented runner, finesse. I don’t think he’s a lead. I think he’s more of a change-of-pace or situational back.Cognitive learning involves the trouble with penciling him in as a third-down back is he struggles with protection. … he’s a talented runner — feet, instincts, vision, all that, it’s there.Cognitive learning involves I just don’t think he’s very physical. The protection would be the biggest question that I have on him. He’s shifty, I just don’t think he runs behinds his pads like a 210-, 215-pound back.” cognitive learning involves Defensive end: A considerable concern. Going from michael bennett to vinny curry is a downgrade, and there’s no obvious “feel-good about it” candidate to take over chris long’s role if indeed he’s gone.Cognitive learning involves in jim schwartz’s heavy DL-rotation scheme, it is imperative that the front four is able to get to the quarterback without the aid of blitzers.Cognitive learning involves the eagles will still be able to do that when graham and barnett are in the game, but the combination of curry and someone from the “maybe they show something” group could be a significant liability when they go in for their line shifts.Cognitive learning involves if graham or barnett go down, the eagles’ pass rush could be in serious trouble. The eagles might end up going for a veteran to play C/G. There aren’t great options, but it would be nice to have some experience for that area.Cognitive learning involves at the same time, it would be nice to check out the rookies and get a feel for them. If they all struggle, go get your veteran. If one of the rookies shows real promise, hold on adding the veteran and give the kid a chance.Cognitive learning involves you want cheap, young backups when you can find them. Howie roseman was patient at RB and came away with a pair of players the team likes in jordan howard and miles sanders.Cognitive learning involves roseman was patient at LB and came away with zach brown. Roseman was patient at DT and came away with tim jernigan and hassan ridgeway. Sometimes this works and sometimes it doesn’t.Cognitive learning involves you can’t make good players magically appear. I’m sure jernigan talked to a lot of other teams before re-signing. He obviously didn’t get the deal he was looking for.Cognitive learning involves ridgeway came available on draft weekend so the eagles jumped on him. Maybe the team is waiting for may 7 before pursuing more free agents. Or maybe they just don’t like the options right now.Cognitive learning involves we’ll find out soon enough. The addition of zach brown gives the eagles a productive, experienced inside linebacker to add to the mix. He has 74 career starts.Cognitive learning involves paul worrilow does have 52 career starts, but he hasn’t started 10 or more games since 2015 and he’s coming off an ACL injury. Nathan gerry is a converted safety still learning how to play linebacker.Cognitive learning involves fort is a special teams ace and role player trying to show that he is capable of being a good starter. There is now a variety of backgrounds, ages, and skill sets competing for the middle linebacker job.Cognitive learning involves brown has the best résumé. Gerry is the best athlete. Fort is coming off the best year of his career. Worrilow has the most experience of playing in the 4-3 defense and should know the playbook well since he’s in his second year with the eagles.Cognitive learning involves (B+) andre dillard (92nd percentile OT prospect) was a really strong first-round pick. Not only does he enter the league with more pass-blocking reps as any offensive line prospect, but he also is one of the most athletic ots in the class.Cognitive learning involves dillard is a member of the elite OL speed score club and also made josh norris’ short shuttle hall of fame. … miles sanders was drafted too early -- remember that he is, in fact, a running back -- and my model liked darrell henderson and damien harris more, despite being drafted after sanders.Cognitive learning involves however, the penn state running back does check all athletic boxes and went off in his only non- saquon barkley season, so he is certainly one of the best backs in the class.Cognitive learning involves that just doesn’t mean a whole lot this year. … JJ arcega-whiteside would be graded more favorably if my model didn’t knock the opportunity cost of not drafting andy isabella.Cognitive learning involves however, my models do like arcega-whiteside in a vacuum and I’m bullish on JJAW becoming a multi-year starter for carson wentz, especially after surprising the #haters with a 4.50 forty at 225 pounds.Cognitive learning involves … clayton thorson hasn’t been good in years, but I’m an advocate of drafting quarterbacks, so I can’t hate the pick that much. It just should have been gardner minshew who showed signs analytically that he could be a high-end backup.Cognitive learning involves Not long after he tweeted that, NBC sports washington spoke to brown, who said johnson’s comments were “insulting.” brown was in his first year with washington and wanted to create a winning atmosphere, which is awfully hard to do if your opponents are saying they’re going to whup your ass.Cognitive learning involves at the time, brown said, “that’s the thing, he’s guaranteeing that win. So when that game comes, when that opening game comes, we’ll see what happens.” well … the eagles won that week 1 matchup in washington, 30-17, and then went on to win the first super bowl championship in franchise history as johnson was named to the all-pro team.Cognitive learning involves washington went 7-9, the same record it finished with in both of brown’s two seasons there. RB jay ajayi, atlanta falcons: adding a fifth-round power back in qadree ollison was nice, but it doesn’t exactly read like a complement to the similarly physical devonta freeman.Cognitive learning involves ito smith is also in the house, but dan quinn has yet to give his ringing endorsement of anyone as a tevin coleman replacement. Ajayi is the falcons’ best bet of bringing “lightning” into a room of “thunder,” especially at a discounted rate.Cognitive learning involves yes, he’s a bit repetitive in terms of being injury prone like freeman, but he also brings a wealth of starting experience. Sullivan worked out at the 2018 NFL combine, measuring in at 5-foot-10 3/4 and 194 pounds.Cognitive learning involves his explosiveness is his best physical attribute, as his vertical jump (40.5 inches) and broad jump (11-foot-2) finished above the 90th percentile for cornerbacks.Cognitive learning involves his speed (4.60 forty) and agility (4.36 short shuttle) from the combine put him below the 20th percentile in those tests. However, he reportedly had a hamstring injury in indianapolis and improved on those times in a solo pro day a few weeks later, with a 40 time around 4.50 seconds and a 3-cone time around 7 seconds.Cognitive learning involves in philadelphia, sullivan was primarily a special teams player, though he did make one start in his five games. Look for him to compete for a roster spot through special teams contributions in 2019.Cognitive learning involves Just one day after their battle royal of kickers at rookie minicamp, the bears have traded a conditional 2021 seventh-round pick to the oakland raiders for kicker eddy pineiro, according to ESPN’s adam schefter.Cognitive learning involves schefter also reported that the pick is based on the conditions that pineiro must be on chicago’s active roster for at least five games. [BLG note: chicago now has THREE kickers on their roster.Cognitive learning involves the eagles broke the bears.] He answer to the question “when will daniel jones start games for the new york giants?” really can’t be answered.Cognitive learning involves that depends on any number of variables, most importantly how the season unfolds for the giants. As much as the giants have shown their willingness to prepare for the future by drafting jones no. 6 overall, given the loyalty ownership and GM dave gettleman have shown to manning it seems unlikely they will be in a hurry to shove manning aside.Cognitive learning involves if manning is playing well, or well enough, and the giants continue to have a realistic chance to reach the playoffs, it’s hard to envision the giants pulling a kurt warner on manning.Cognitive learning involves still, jones is going to play ... Eventually. This isn’t a groundbreaking statement, but the game just moves faster in the NFL than in college football.Cognitive learning involves in order to avoid some backbreaking interceptions in the NFL, jones needs to speed up his decision-making on plays where he has to do more than a quick drop in the pocket.Cognitive learning involves this throw against virginia tech is a perfect example of this. Jones wants to throw to his receiver wide open toward the left sideline. Jones is staring him down all the way, but for some reason he’s incredibly hesitant to actually throw the ball to him.Cognitive learning involves by the time jones does, he’s gives the cornerback a chance to make a play on the ball and almost intercept it. This is a pick-six in the NFL.Cognitive learning involves | |
