So we're 1/4 way through the season (already?!!), who is impressing you and who is not?
Ive had a chance now to catch up on some of the games and some of all the teams
Ill start with my team: Its been a great draft class, Cox looks every bit as good as advertised and is a 10 year starter at DT, probably a few pro bowls in him too i think. Kendricks is probably already one of the best 4-3 OLBs, he is playing at an amazing level
And Brandon Boykin is proving to be a quality slot corner. He has been picked on at times and given up a play or two, but he's also made some plays, and some important ones at that. He'll be a very good footballer.
around the league: RGIII, Luck and Richardson have all been stars as expected but others ive been impressed with:
Melvin Ingram: he's really improved the Chargers D
Cordy Glenn: The bills havent impressed much but Glenn has been pretty damn good. The future of the Eagles LT looks good
Levonte David: Its either him or Kendricks for the best 4-3 OLB out of this draft class
Ashlon Jeffery: IMO he's been the best big name rookie WR. He's looking very sharp
Alfred Morris: For a 6th rounder, he's doing a great job as the skins starting RB.
People im not impressed with:
Luke Keuchley: He has not really improved the run d much at all, he's struggling to get off blocks, which was the knock in college
Dontari Poe: Can not believe they took him over Cox, they will live to regret that. Poe wont do much in this league imo
Russell Wilson: I know i shouldnt have expected much, but given he won the job i thought he'd be looking better. Honestly i think we're getting close to Matt Flynn time
Justin Blackmon: Maybe because there is no one else and his QB is Blaine Gabbert but he's struggled to get open, and for a bloke who's biggest strength was his hands, he's dropped some easy catches
Anyone keen to have a crack at an all rookie team of the year so far?
