Defensive perspective (For what ever a preseason evaluation is worth vs regular season)
2013 Week 1 KC 215 yards Week 2 Oak 185 yards Week 3 Hou 496 yards Week 4 Mia 289 yards Ave total yards allowed/ game = 295 Meaning when compared to the first 2 games of the 2014 preseason? Absolutely nothing Gallette was 6th in the league in sacks last year, serviceable at best as a run defender. His value is weighed heavily by what role you see want to see him in. He is sort of akin to a defensive Jimmy Graham (know its a stretch) If you are looking for a pass rusher or catcher then they are your men, if you want a blocker or run defender you may want to consider other options. |

The only thing the preseason is good for is individual talent evaluation. That being said, I am excited to see this upcoming game. Our starters should be playing and we are going against a good team in their house. |
