he was a bit rough at first and his tackling still needs work but overall i'm pretty pleased with him. especially after he missed basically all of training camp

How was Tyler Matakevich?

Only saw playing time in one game when every other ILB got hurt but he racked up something ridiculous like 9 tackles in the quarter he played lol. he's a little slow but drat if he doesn't always know exactly where the play is going

he was also our leading tackler on special teams so all in all pretty choice for a 7th rounder

Sounds about right. Dude has a crazy nose for the ball carrier and reads plays like nuts.

People have been really talking themselves into liking the QB's this go around vs actually being excited which is telling of what scouts and writers really think about this crop. People were excited for Watson before the season started then his stock dropped like a rock after a few games (I saw as low as the 6th round grades. not saying that's what I think of his value) then bowl season started it shot back up to the 1st and now possible top 10 because of flat out thirst not actual talent.

The thing about scouts and writers is, for people who are being paid to do what they do, they are loving incredibly bad at what they do. Like, if it were any other line of work, their abysmal miss-rate would be fireable.

e: case in point
