Barry Church?

[CowboyMcCoy]

Hos was the first guy I saw high on this guy. I'm just now coming around to him. I read his draft profile and he's a bit slow. But he looked like the only guy who knows how to tackle and he forced a fumble early on in the game. The guy was out there making plays. He reminded me of Roy Williams and Woodson some....

Do any of you guys think we have something in him?

Also, hairic posted some snippets. Check those out. http://cowboyszone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=198296

Like I said, he's a tad bit slow. But I think we can use the guy in some packages and I think he can only get faster if he tries.

Thoughts on Barry Church?

IMO Church is one of those guys that just "gets it". A Bill Bates type of player. Might be slow, but just has instincts, and smarts.

If you watch him closely, he's that and then some. I think he could be a playmaker, even a pro-bowler someday... way too early to tell. But I just love the player's potential.

Idk.. my lasting impression of Church from the GB game was when he tried to put a big hit on a guy right along the sideline, and as the guy was going out kind of just threw his body out there and the guy almost completely ran through him.

Church's momentum was launching him forward at the guy, but his body was sideways and the guy basically stopped Church's momentum solid and made him fall straight to the ground lol.

Check again! Check my mock drafts!

But yes, I am also very high on The Reverend Barry Church. He looks like Woody when he's on the field in stature.

You would have to see he is a better option than what we currently have at the position. Let these boys play!!

 

[Hostile]

I wasn't the first. 2 or 3 guys at least were ahead of me. I do like the kid though.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

I wish they'd put him in there and bench either Ball or Sensy. Either one is fine with me cause they both suck.

Yep, casmith07 was ahead of me. I absolutely acknowledge this.

He ran a poor 40 time. But everything out of camp was that its not noticeable on the field.

 

[rockj7]

Is he a FS or is he suited more as a SS

 

[cowboyschmps3]

i was high on this guy, i was looking at the pre-drafts and the guy just seems to get things done on the field, and when Hos posted it i was happy other people were looking at him, the ravens and many teams wanted him, but Hos he'll be a great one as i know you'll agree

He's got a great head on his shoulders. I love that about the kid. Football comes natural to him.

 

[TheCount]

Love Church, no idea if he's got the brains for the position yet, but I definitely like him.

His skills lean more to SS but he has already filled in some at FS.

Good, that's 1 player on this whole entire friggin roster with smarts and/or instincts.

I think Sensy and Church is a good combo.

You were the first I read.

Do you have a link? I would love to see it. Personally, I'm not all that great with drafts... I could be better, but I don't have the time needed for it, nor the focus on that particular area.

I agree he is sort of Woodsonesque. I have an eye for safeties. He just caught it last night. Truly outstanding on our defense... even tho we sucked.

 

[casmith07]

I think Sensy and Church is a good combo.

I think so too. Church might not be fast, but he will make up for it in his play, as he's done before.

He's got a natural feel for the position - and he's a willing tackler even against big backs. I wish I had video of him taking to do Maurice Jones-Drew against the Jaguars. He's always in on tackles and he wraps up.

I'm telling you...save for a little speed, he looks like old #28 out there.

Oh another thing I like about him - as a DB, he's never flat-footed like Alan Ball or Scandrick. He stays in his pedal until he makes a break on the play. That alone is a huge part of playing the position.

 

[CowboyMcCoy]

I'd like to see Sensy move over to FS and Church at SS.

Thoughts on that?
