Encouraging DT play

[Peter Ariz]

Been meaning to post this in the practice reports, but I am very impressed by the play of the DT

Luther Robinson seems to have turned the corner and Curtis Porter is healthy and playing very well. We know what Darius Smith will give and I've talked about Ivery in-depth.

Olsen Pierre has added a lot of weight as well. This could be a solid group

But Grimble continues to disappoint
im expecting an imminent transfer
guy will be down th depth chart
and highly touted prospects are in route

I really like Olsen.... god **** Temple would have had one helluva DT thanks Golden

 

[RiDLer80]

How big is Pierre these days? He definitely looks bigger.

 

[UM58]

How bout the fellas on the outside? Any depth there?

 

[GhostofVenice01]

This could be the difference from 6-6 to 8-4 or 9-3 IMO

Just posted in another thread but will Corey King give us anything (heard mixed reviews)?

And props to Luther Robinson. Staff was going to move him to OL and he stepped it up and seems to be delivering. Golden's story about Luther was pretty good.

Porter is really good when he is healthy. Hopefully he puts it all together this year.

Chickillo, Green, Cain, Hoilett, Hamilton, McCord will play...that's off the top of my head

Briscoe and O'Donnell need RS IMO

Rico Williams?

Rico Williams?

Lost in the shuffle right now

 

[DiegoCane]

So DT rotation will look something like Porter/Smith/Pierre/Robinson/Ivery and then Grimble/King can pick up the rest. RS Moore and Briscoe

Guess that means Rico Williams isn't doing much. DE actually worries me more then DT. I'm a little surprised it isn't being recruited a little harder for 2013.

Is there an interview posted somewhere regarding this? I know Golden lit a fire under Luther last year but is there another story to tell regarding him?

It was in his preseason press conference. Something like Luther was in Golden's office and Golden asked him if he thought he should play when he could only rep 225 12 times. There was a little more to it but that's the summary.

...and it's ashame how bad our DT play has been the last 4 years or so. Glad there is light at the end of the tunnel

 

[Rob Pea]

The way Porter was playing at the end of last year I expect him to be on straight beast mode this year.

 

[CaneShades]

I just hope they can stay healthy

 

[k9cane]

If Big Curtis can play like a guy who should be drafted in the first 3 rounds( which I think he can) I think UM will surprise some folks. The guy has NFL ability

Yes! Porter might be the biggest surprise on the team this year.
