Leathernecks Posted April 11, 2018 Report Share Posted April 11, 2018 I love it! Hopefully he can come in and start. I think we'll be a decent team with Ramsey, but if he's better than Ramsey, we could be really good. If nothing else, I hope this will push Penix down a spot to allow him to redshirt for a year.

Stlboiler23 Posted April 11, 2018 Report Share Posted April 11, 2018 Just now, btownqb said: Yeah? In looking at his stats, looks like he’s a good runner but not a great passer. I feel like teams will load up in the box and dare him to beat them with his arm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's only so many defenders... he completed 61% of his passes last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The year before he only completed 54% of his passes with 70 more attempts. Not a huge sample size. Will be interesting to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milehiiu Posted April 11, 2018 Report Share Posted April 11, 2018 I called it. Last Saturday, I told you guys in the Juan Harris thread to keep an eye out for the QB position. Does not solve all the problems, but is a step in the right direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DL is a work in progress... although Robinson is solidified there, and Stallings came on late. LBers are probably the biggest work in progress. Our safeties are as talented as we've ever had... thought 2 of them are inexperienced. WRs are loaded as are the RBs. OL should be solid, not great, not bad... need to stay healthy unlike the last two years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed like they weren’t great last year but maybe I’m misremembering. Agree re your WR group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btownqb Posted April 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2018 Plus Majette is still a SR. Not the talent of the group that is overall impressive, but the depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either both throw a lot of INTs, or they both don't, or they are both in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
