A veteran who is having a great start to spring…

Loving these little tidbits @DMoney. Fuel my optimism tank before the season starts!

Anyways, I will root for kids that hang in instead of transferring elsewhere to get more PT. I think the portal has really messed with players and fans expectations of what players should be. Some guys just need a little more seasoning than a year to two to prove they can play.

I think the portal will at some point jump the shark. What I mean is that how can a player truly develop if he's changing schools, schemes and coaches each year? I think multiple transfers often equates to lack of development (ahem Bear Alexander et al) .

Patterson will be back soon. Move Damari, pray he stays healthy with Day and Williams. Someone needs to be consistent back there. I still see a vet S being brought in the portal which is needed. I like Markeith and wish he could have put on weight.

…Markeith Williams at safety. He’s stuck it out and is starting to play a lot faster. Still thin but good instincts and movement in the passing game.

Was a fan of high school film but this dude never found the plug in 4 years to gain weight? Unfortunate.. at this point it's your last go around.. it's by any means necessary these next couple months.. lol

Never understood why this kid got completely buried last year. He played a lot week 1 and then just disappeared. I don't think anyone will say he's Sean Taylor, but I'd have put DMoney at safety last year for a few series. Sebastian should've gotten some run. The kids we had back there were toxic waste, play after play, week after week. And this kid STILL never played, ever. Bizarre.

He's got good ball skills (paws). It's terrifying though that someone who gets paid to coach football not only thought he was worse than what was here last year, but so much worse he hung out in the 3rd row during the games.

It probably had something to do with him allowing not 1 but 2 kick off returns for TDs.

All our safeties looked bad last season, all of them.

Poyser himself will change that I don’t have hope for anyone else

I'm happy for him. Nice to have depth. But at this point in his career, you "hope for the best, plan for the worst". If Damari won't move to S and Patterson continues to have his struggles, unfortunately, we need to hit the portal again. That would suck, but no way should we count on Williams. Maybe Wallace can be a key rotational piece. But you cannot count on him either. We need more than just Poyser and "potentially" Day.

There’s 11 dudes on kickoff. One guy isn’t responsible for a TD. Get the 10 non-kickers down the field and hit someone. That’s nonsense. It also has nothing to do with him not being given a shot to cover someone in the secondary. Like I said, he must have been atrocious in practice because the kids we trotted out there every Saturday were a satchel of buttholes.
