Ah, that was not YOUR point. Both Bob and I pointed out that having LB size and corner speed was rare hence the reason that there were so few of them in the league.

All those guys in SB's list ran as fast or close to 4.5. Notice how many of them are trash and ride the bench.

56... and apparently, more intelligent than you are, and more knowledgeable about the game of football in general, the draft in particular...

Maybe if you live to be my age, you might acquire a clue...



Actually, I said don't be a weasel... it's excellent advice, you should take it...
read it again cause you did call me a weasel. but whatever you're just a 56 year old man shooting his mouth off behind a keyboard like Bat. it's cool though it makes you feel tough since you're not anymore. I understand have a nice night responding to every single post.

some pan out, some don't, is that your clincher? all rookies face a 50/50 chance of busting, or making it, and you'll find alot more 6' 202lb. safeties riding the bench too

Delmas runs a 4.5 too. Is that the criteria for "trash"? So a guy who is much bigger, yet runs just as fast or faster than a favorite of yours (one you believe is pro bowl worthy) is immediately dismissed b/c of his weight?


What if the guy is 6'4? Is 220 still too big? I really am trying to understand.

Don't be a follower now. Otherwise someone will bet their life, and the crying will start up all over again. :D

That's just a numbers game. There's alot more of them so of course you'll see alot riding the bench too.

so is having few players at a position at a certain weight, the number of successful ones being pretty low

if the sample size of 220lb. safeties isn't that big, isn't it logical to assume that the sample of good ones in that group not being that big either? sounds logical to me

This is about coverage skills and Delmas dominates in that area more than Moore. Which was my original statement but i got my head chewed off because I didn't think Moore was any good in coverage. If he can cover than I don't care how big the guy is. Once again History says that's rare. Moore is a JAG and nothing special from any other googler. He'll be forgotten in 3 years.

Well it's just you,BOB and BAT..everyone else I respect and actually read their posts with credibilty. I should have been more specific.

Once again, when confronted with your own words, disproving one of your assertions, you resort to trying to weasel your way out of it...

You said you don't stir the fecal matter, I provided a quote where you merrily admitted to doing exactly that... so either you're schizophrenic, or you're a liar... which is it, slate??

FWIW, I've also lost all respect for you... which saddens me, I never knew you were like that... your credibility is also shot to hell with me...

Only 3 in that list were anything decent..


Clearly, your definition of "decent" is asinine; equally clearly, when it comes to football, you're CLUELESS...

a big guy who can run and play centerfield, and who shows explosive hitting ability is JAG? what world do you live in?

I'm still trying to figure out how being a rare, physical specimen is such a bad thing

I mean isn't the NFL nowadays about finding the biggest and fastest players? I thought it was, guess not in SLATE and Rampage's Bizarro NFL world

all the safeties in this class are seperated by mere inches, there is no clear-cut, best safety in this draft

Most of the first 9 listed are starters...

Jesus, you really ARE just making this crap up as you go along... how completely pathetic of you, that you can't admit you're wrong, even when your nose is rubbed in it...

We are just traveling in circles here. I don't think Moore is anything special and have seen him get smoked many times due to his lateral quickness.

There's Taylor Mays, Then there's the Williams moore's of the world.
