If DT is not drafted this year as deep as this draft is, that will tell me alot about what we think of that position and don't want to hear well they covered that in FA.
Freakin hope so. Dude shows up and plays well for about 3 or 4 games.IMO Maliek is like Tank. The only thing that has really been able to slow the growth of the kid is injuries. I am expecting a break out season this year. Thoughts?
Injuries have led to a decrease in snaps IMO due to lack of conditioning I think. Just like with it was hard for me to forget that he had a 8 sack season it is hard for me to forget that Collins had a 5 sack season.
Coaches are supposed to, you know, coach? Part of that is making sure players are using the proper equipment. Players should not be expected to be experts on proper equipment. These are not teenagers buying cool shoes at the mall. These are professional athletes at the highest level, on the most valuable sports franchise in the world.
Healthly going into the season snaps is what Im hoping for.He was almost equal in sacks per snap played in 2016 and 2018.
Including the playoffs:
Collins
2016 sacks 5
2018 sacks 4
2018 snaps played = 87% 2016 snaps played
2018 sacks = 80% 2016 sacks
87% of 5 sacks is 4.35 which is obviously not possible.
I'm fully aware of what coaches are supposed to do. You, on the other hand, are looking for an employee at Foot Locker
to coach professional athletes at the highest level... smh. Wow!
No, it's you who think players and employees at Foot Locker should be determining equipment fit for professional athletes.
Shoes. We are talking about shoes, here.
I'm guessing Belicheck doesn't walk around the locker room
measuring players feet.
But hey, if you're just looking for things to blame on the coaching staff,
I give you credit for originality.
I bet Belichick does have equipment professionals handling the equipment for his team.
Especially the footballs.
There is much more to shoe fit than just the shoe size in regards to custom fit shoes.
Even without custom fitting, there a big variations between types/brands of shoes.
Also, cleats add additional issues because the placement of the cleats, especially the natural grass cleats, affects the weight distribution (pressure) on specific points of the foot.
A few of the parameters:
- length (shoe size)
- width
- arch height
- instep (height of the foot at the laces)
- shape (wide toe area or narrow toe area)
This is from an article about pressure testing an NBA player with 3 different shoes.
1. The Jordan 2 had much lower pressures at the fifth metatarsal.
2. The Jordan 10 had much lower pressures at the fifth metatarsal, but for some reason, the Jordan 10s caused some dysfunction in his gait.
3. The Nike Air Max shoe increased pressures under his fifth metatarsals bilaterally and especially under the left foot.
1. Jordan 2
2. Jordan 10
3. Nike Air Max
I’m hoping a DT worth taking is there but I’m not optimisticDraft a DT with the first pick and put some pressure on him. No assurance one player makes the move in his 3rd year that another made. And no assurance Collins can stay healthy.
IMO Maliek is like Tank. The only thing that has really been able to slow the growth of the kid is injuries. I am expecting a break out season this year. Thoughts?
Looking like it if the mocks are close. The draft may be deep in DL but not 5 stars and there's a steep fall off from the first 6 to the next group.I’m hoping a DT worth taking is there but I’m not optimistic
I think the quality is gonna be at safety
