DC: Mailbag: Impressions Of Team After Minicamp? Tapper’s Starting Potential?

[reddyuta]

Irving will be big this year. I think he will be the star by seasons end

I can definitely see Irving doing very well at LDE with better DT play especially if they can collapse the pocket,he missed some sacks last year because the QB would just step up in the pocket.

Jerry clearly goes for offense, flash, and home run type draft picks.

Yes clearly.

Last year, defense with first 2 picks.

2014, OL in first, then 2 defensive picks.

The only offense, flash home runs picks the last 3 years have been Devin Street (5th round) and EE.

I feel like Tapper and Collins (once he's healthy) if they can stay healthy will surprise a lot of people. They may not be the 2nd coming of Reggie White or Warren Sapp, but if they can do their job they will be very good picks in my eyes. Good players do their job, great players do their job and make plays.

Tapper may have to step up and start regardless....Probably gonna be some growing pains....but because you have a couple knuckleheads that get suspended...your gonna have to make due w/ what you have.

Ill grant you Jones, but Gregory was a home run pick. Zeke was all flash. Jaylon was a home run pick. 3 Olineman in 4 years in the first round. Dez Bryant all flash, home run, offense.

Home run as in.....................I know there are red flags and issues, but if those issues dont show up, this guy could be an all pro. Boom or bust.

Its like dating a stripper. You know she is completely hot but only a fool would try to change her and make her your wife.

Not even at closing time.

Some scouts say his history indicates he's inconsistent. The most favorable attribute that Tapper has going right now might be his potential.
