Head coaching staff. The following are some of my crazy, off the wall predictions:

Head Coach/Team President: Joe Gibbs
Assoc. HC Offense: Al Saunders
Assoc. HC Defense: Gregg Williams
Running Backs Coach: Earnest Byner
Wide Receivers Coach: Stan Hixon

I know. It's insane.

well i don't know... I mean we could talk about the LBs, Who is better Lloyd or ARE? I wonder if this thread will go much farther without talking about JC and Brunell and who should be number 1.

Isn't it obvious that Ramsey should be #1 at QB? (Insert sarcastic smirk and cringe awaiting backlash)

I guess you are right, we need to get this son bitch rolling. Not that I believe it but, Brunell is too old to be a starter in this league. Bring on the rook, there is no way we can win a bowl with the old man.

Wait a minute, you don't have the almight Lavernues Coles on your list. What's wrong with you man? Where are your priorities? And we look a little thin at linebacker, did you list Lavar Arrington's right leg as well? That leg is a beast.

LC, despite possessing only 9 toes and 8 fingers, is far too talented for my list.... sorry.

I disagree. Mortal Kombat is a very good game, but Donkey Kong is the best game of all time.

Must be. Notice how they didn't even try to spell Prioleau....

I guess we will just list him as Pierson or maybe PP!

Who writes depth charts that only go three players deep anyways?!?!?!

Well gee, like we don't know who the starters are!

O'Doyle rules.

Re: Pre Depth Chart Rankings
 

There is one question mark on the depth chart: who is starting at weakside linebacker. That is literally the only question.

It is sort of a stupid question anyway considering the rotation of LBs means that the "starter" is sort of a superficial label.

[quote=BigSKINBauer]well i don't know... I mean we could talk about the LBs, Who is better Lloyd or ARE? I wonder if this thread will go much farther without talking about JC and Brunell and who should be number 1.[/quote]

I honestly think Lloyd and ARE are about equal, bc they excell in different ways. Since we will be running 2-3+ wide most of the time, I really dont know if there will truly be a 2nd string reciever. I think Lloyd and ARE will rotate when we run two reciever sets, and have about equal playing time, maybe a little bit more with Lloyd.

Sorry guys, trying to bring this thread back down to earth lol.

Re: Pre Depth Chart Rankings
 

Because of his versatility, Defense's must HATE ARE

In a conventional two-back offense you basically have a slotback and a split-end (both referred to as wide receivers in popular nomenclature). The split-end lines up on the line of scrimmage whereas the slot-back lines up about 2-3 yards off the line, so he can go in motion. In many conventional sets, they will both position themselves close to the hashes - away from the offensive line but often, the slotback can will position himself directly adjacent to the offensive line.

Because of their positioning, the split-end normally will be asked to run more fly and post patterns while the slotback will run ins, outs, hooks - short to intermmediate patterns. Consequently, you normally want your split-end to be someone who is faster than quick (like Lloyd) and your slotback to be someone who is quicker than fast (like El). In an ideal world, you have someone like Moss, who has both.

My guess is that in a 2-receiver set, you have Cooley lined up at tight-end, Lloyd at split-end and Moss at slotback. If they go with a 3-receiver set, then El will come in for Cooley and play slotback and Moss will move up on the line.

But in most formations you need that classic receiver to play the split-end, which is one of the main reasons they brought in Lloyd.

Have we heard who the official "fullback" is going to be? And is the H-back a feature in the Al Saunders offense?

[quote=Beemnseven]Have we heard who the official "fullback" is going to be? And is the H-back a feature in the Al Saunders offense?[/quote]

mike sellers is the fullback and no, there's no h-back. Cooley will be a straight up TE, but i seriously doubt it'll affect his stats (though the extra offensive talent might cut into his totals a bit).

Re: Pre Depth Chart Rankings
 

We are going to run so many formations (2wr, 2te, 1rb; 3wr, 1te, 1rb; etc.) that saying a guy like Randle-El (or Lloyd) isn't a starter is kind of misleading. Our third receiver will likely be in for more snaps than our fullback... on some days. Pay no attention to the offensive depth chart at the receiver position - it will only serve to confuse you.

well, i do think our #2 and #3 may rotate a bit in and out of the 2 WR set, but El is really better as the #3 slot guy, and lloyd is probably a better guy to keep on the field every down.

Re: Pre Depth Chart Rankings
 

I wonder how often Gibbs and Saunders will allow Randle El to be the trick play guy like he was in Pittsburgh?

Will there be more or less trick plays than the Steelers?

gibbs has always been a trick play happy coach. he's up for anything if it'll help the team win, so i'm sure we'll see it. gardner and portis have throw passes already, so why not El?

Re: Pre Depth Chart Rankings
 

I think it would be a mistake to have a multiple WR set in a non goalline situation without Randle El on the field. Lloyd can play a more traditional split end, but anytime you have a guy like Antwaan on the field, the D needs to respect everything he can do.

Lloyd isn't a big over the middle guy anyway. He has made his living down the sideline making circus catches for three years, and I don't think he brings anything to the table that El doesn't bring (except a few inches). He (Lloyd) should be in during goalline, but with Moss as the guy who will go over the middle the most, I can only see Lloyd as the 3rd WR in most formations. Get them both into the game, but play El in 2 WR sets for his versatility.

that's well and good if you're doing WR option passes or end arounds every other play (but portis and moss can both do those)... when you're not, it's best to put the most actual receiving talent out on the field, which is moss, lloyd, and cooley.

Re: Pre Depth Chart Rankings
 

Starting August 13, in the first preseason game against the Bengals, we'll start to get an idea of exactly how Lloyd and Randle El will be used. It's also going to come down to who performs and who takes a little longer to adjust to the new offense.

Re: Pre Depth Chart Rankings
 

This is pretty much a no brainer list. Guys like Nehemiah Broughton, Jimmy Farris, Tyson Walter, Anthony Montgomery, and Nic Clemons could end up getting cut, so I don't include them on my list. Anybody notice how we seem to have a glut of DL on the roster?

QB-Brunell, Campbell, Collins
HB-Portis, Betts, Cartwright
FB-Sellers, White
WR-Moss, Lloyd, Randle El, Patten, Thrash
TE-Cooley, Fauria, R. Johnson
C-Rabach, Lefotu
G-Thomas, Dockery, Pucillo
T-Jansen, Samuels, Molinaro
----------------------------
DT-Griffin, Salave'a, Killings, Boschetti
DE-Daniels, Wynn, Carter, Evans
MLB-Marshall, McCune, Campbell
OLB-Washington, Holdman, C. Clemons, McIntosh (he'll eventually pass Holdman and Clemons on the depth chart)
S-Taylor, Archuleta, Prioleau, Doughty
CB-Springs, Rogers, Wright, Jimoh
-----------------------------
K-Hall

because lloyd is a better receiver.
