My man!

You have to hit on a certain amount late draft picks and UDFAs.

They nailed it with Bland and Clark. Will be two solid guys on this defense for the next few years

Bland makes the lack of impact of Joseph so far sting a bit less. He's been fantastic. Most games you don't even hear his name because QBs aren't throwing his way. He'll give up the odd pass but tackles the receiver immediately, and now has 3 picks. What more can you ask for.

The problem is teams will shy away from throwing to the two ball hawks (Bland and Diggs), which means they will keep attacking Joseph when he's on

Teams won’t shy away from Bland. Those two crappy passes from Ryan won’t scare anyone.

Not a bad thing really. Put your best CBs on an island and send help to the other DBs. That’s what used to make Revis so good. He could shut down half the field and the defense could put all their guys on the other half. If we can get something even close to that with Diggs and Bland.

That's a good problem, having one corner that took the league by storm last year with interceptions and is better. Then, having another corner who is getting his own reputation for picks. Many teams would beg to have this problem on their team, right?

I have faith DQ can get Joseph right, this is his opportunity to shine otherwise IDK if he makes it on the team next year.

Let's hope Joseph's up for it. We should expect some mistakes, but hope he'll show some signs of growth.

I wonder if Nashon Wright is going to finally make some sort of impact soon as well.

especially since the Eagles have 30 first round picks.

Sauce Gardner has been considered one of the best defensive players, not just corners, taken in this draft. Bland has one more interception than him in a lot fewer snaps.

I dont think he is any more than a special teamer.

Only fair to point out, though, that Gardner does have 15 passes defensed while Bland has only been credited with four.

One of them is a starter
