What if ... (the Rookie Class gets it)
In contrast to the "Why did we" threads that have been a staple this season, I wanted to ask a simple question:
What if the remaining Rookie Class, (MK DT FD, and the others) "get it" and start making some positive strides in the late part of this season. What if... Devin Thomas becomes a big target in the middle on 3rd Downs? Wouldn't the options of DT in the middle of the field, Cooley short Side out and Santana going deep give any Defense a fear of how to defend that combination. With CP blocking and/or fading to the other side. What if ... Malcom Kelly becomes the Red Zone go to on the fade, with Cooley and Davis running short, and Moss running the Slant. Do we think Jason can throw the Jump ball to MK a couple times or the slant on the open middle? What if ... Fred Davis learns more from Cooley, and the 2 of them sync up with Jason? I could go on, but my point is we drafted for potential. We were not drafting for the immediate (although as happens every year at the draft, we all want that one special player, like Darrell Green who comes in day 1 and lights up the place.). Please don't bring in the 3 or 4 other players who are frequently mentioned. We didn't pick'em and if we had they would just be getting on the field as well. Why? Because we returned all of our starting WR's, our QB, and RB's What if ... our draft results in a strong team going forward. That is what I hope that we start seeing signs of as early as this week against Seattle. |
