Re: No 5th Year for Harris

There are two ways of looking at broken tackle stats. Sure, it means you are a powerful back. It also can mean that you are slow to get through the hole and give defenders more time to tackle you. I've watched Najee a lot. He doesn't scare defenses. He just doesn't. He doesn't threaten them and the...

Re: No 5th Year for Harris

Surprising but what has Khan/Weidl done since running the team? Surprise. I think it benefits them to negotiate a reasonable contract with him instead of eating 1st RND 5th year money for one season. The front office doesn’t do things without there being some sort of contingency. I think they like H...

Re: Pick 6. 195, Ryan Watts DB Texas

Watts will have to earn a roster spot likely through special teams.

He could develop and play backup at Safety, Not at cornerback.

I will be rooting for him as well. Experimental, developmental perfect 6th RND pick.
