Several football personnel questions for the board...
I have a few concerns - perhaps concern might be too strong, but I have questions about some players and some positions. Looking for input from others.
O-Line: Corey Robinson is a beast of a man but he whiffed on some key blocks last year. The play when Connor Shaw got hurt for the last time in the bowl game appeared to be on a missed block by Robinson. How comfortable are we that he's quick enough to handle the blind side? Also Ronald Patrick - he is clearly a hulk, but he's never stood out to me. How confident in him is the board?
TE: Jerrel Adams? Is he ready to step up and make plays all year? Cunningham was a great blocker and possession receiver and also made some big plays. Adams can make the big play but is he prepared to go to war in the trenches when necessary. We need a TE who can block because Busta is a pass-catcher moreso than a blocker.
FB: Do we have a FB or H-back who is good enough to be anything more than a short yardage blocker?
D-Tackle: Surratt and Quarles appear solid, but who else is expected to really step up? Do you think Dixon or Green will get more snaps?
Spur: I like Golightly, but he's pretty small. Can Diggs win that job?
FS: Is Gurley ready for the fall? He looked like a great player before the injury. Do we have anyone else we're really confident in at free?
CB: We need some backups to step up and play well. Christian maybe? What about Ronnie Martin?
Curious about feedback from others...
