had to look this guy up.

2019 2R by Detroit .. got a 32.1 PFF grade. Honestly Ive never seen anything lower than mid 40s ... I know nothing about the guy.

A year ago, sure bring on the young guys, keep an eye on the future.

This year? I thinks its who can help the most this year.

Like keeping 30 year old journeyman Larsen over Ismael.

We want to win now.

They might be considering Shaka Toney at LB as well.

Quote:

So, I think Toney will become a SAM LB for us and be used some as an EDGE in nickle to spell Young/Sweat.

He did work out at the Senior Bowl as an Off-the-Ball LB, so I see that what he plays if he hopes to make the 53 man roster.

If he indeed does slot in at SAM, this is a really solid 7th round pick! - Mark Tyler

He scored a 9.92 Relative Athletic Score out of a possible 10.0. RAS is a composite metric on a 0 to 10 scale based on the average of all of the percentile for each of the metrics the player completed either at the Combine or pro day. This rated 17 out of 2156 LBs from 1987 to 2021.

They are only in year 2, still building, next year depending if they get their QB, is where the window opens and Win Now becomes a factor

JDR did say they were cross training him at LB and his build is prototypical LB, same size as Jamin. Plus Toney is said to be fast for his size

It was 61.6 in 2019. Not that I consider pff grades the end all be all.

I’d also note, FWIW, that he’s #58 - the other D linemen are all in the 90s. All LBs in the 50s. Just sayin’.

I'm not judging the coaching staff on the cuts until I see the PS signings. I'd be surprised if AGG clears waivers but even more surprised if he then didn't get a PS spot. Moreland too, though I don't know how the injury designation affects things. Given our need to bolster our run defence I wouldn't be at odds with going after Wright (and losing Apke in the process).

Did Troy fucking Apke make the team again??? He must be a super likable guy because he sucks at football.

Rivera called him a luxury and one of the best ST players in the league.

My under the radar surprise non-cut is DL Casey Toohill, none of us talked about him possibly making the team.

FrenchSkin · 08-31-2021, 09:18 PM

And we're focused on Apke vs Moreland because we wanted the former cut and the later kept, but maybe Moreland's cut has more to do with what they think of Darryl Roberts. McTyer was a near lock in my mind, but I had questions about Roberts, he made somenice physical plays in PS wk3, maybe they'd like his size and potential to play outside over Moreland's skills as a slot CB.

I'm kinda torn: I'm glad they cut them all, it means they know they have to bring in better guys... but then I'm like, we were all screaming "sign a quality vet LB" all offseason, why are they realizing it now ?
Who ever the new LBs will be, they could've used the reps in camp...

Apke's ST play in preseason

Yeah sure he's doing his job. Is this really worth more than a quality slot CB that can play outside and might start somewhere else ? I mean we're gonna have a rookie CB in our nickel package... and he looked good but we could have used the security blanket.

Well any player would want to be in that over in the signing on the having on a winning SB contender on it there.
