FEATURED FA agent thread

Urban has been listed as high as 305 and could possibly be bigger. I'm not sure of their plans for his position, I just don't think he's ever been tried as a full time 1T so tough to expect it.

I know he's a top-notch run-stopper, but at his height, it's difficult no matter how heavy he could get to stay low enough not to be rooted out when you face a double-team, which is what the 1-tech is supposed to draw. You generally not only need size, but a low center of gravity to anchor down and force the double to stay with you long enough for the linebackers to stay clean and make plays.

Woods is built well for the nose tackle position. The problem with him is that while he's tough to move, he doesn't really make a lot of plays when the double-team lineman peels off to go get the linebackers. A top-notch nose tackle wins the one-on-one to either make the play in the backfield or force the double-team to stay with him. Now, if Quinn does some one-gapping with both DTs on early downs, then Urban can handle that role inside. He's strong and uses his length well to fight off blocks and make plays against the run.

bigger than Woods, FWIW

Woods is listed as 6-1, 310. So 5 to 10 more pounds and 6 inches shorter.

I've seen him listed from 6-0, 300 to 6-1, 318.

I've seen him listed from 6-0, 300 to 6-1, 318.

He looks around 318/320 to me. Completely different build than Urban. Woods is a thick-thighed, big-bottomed, fat-bellied defender while Urban's 300 pounds are fairly well distributed. He doesn't have a lot of junk in the trunk.

I'm just now seeing this lol I didn't know he was still in the league.

Michael Brockers is listed 6-5 305 at nfl.com, listings are not all that accurate.

Didn't Nick Hayden weigh right around 300? Who knows what Quinn plans there.

Welp, put the beer and wings away, boys. Raiders have the Lombardi on lock down. Don't even bother playing the games.

Giants and WFT have improved alot. Their issue might be their QB.

Let's hope neither end up with one and hope ours earns his contract.

agree

Seems like he has been in the NFL alot longer. Didnt realize he's only 28 or 29. Good pick up again by them.

 

[Rayman70]

at this moment we are the 3rd best team in the nfc east on paper. We need to have a great camp and draft to get better. Fitzmagic really scares me having to face him 2 times each year. You know that dude will rise up and play well against us.

Good.

Every time they are the favorite they turn in a crappy, disappointing season.

You make a solid point there lol. Very true. We always do well when no one see's it coming..all the pressure is off. Right now the media is cradling the Gmen and WFT's jock lol..on how great they did and we are being largely shoved to the side. Maybe that IS a good thing as you say.
