Re: Payton wants to release Galette?
I think Lofton, supported in a 3-4 with another inside linebacker and healthy, good nose tackle play will be fine, overpaid, but he'll be fine...
We can't change it all in one draft, free agency period, but the approach seems to contradict itself, like there's two directions... |

Re: Payton wants to release Galette?
I agree about Lofton. He is limited in coverage but if he had a proper NT in front and a competent parter next too him he wouldn't need to try and plug so many holes against the run and could be what he is,a tackle machine. Put him next to Sean Lee,Karlos Dansby,Kiko Alonso or Navorro Bowman and he would look a really good player. Put a true NT in front aswell and he is going to the probowl

Re: Payton wants to release Galette?
Agree on how to use Lofton but teams would find a way to make him cover a TE or WR and there's your mismatch that they can exploit

This is considered borderline slow for a LB & may be the direct result of why he can't keep up with TE's, speedy RB or WR's . In this respect, those combine times & cone drills mean everything for a linebacker. |

I'd rather draft Stephone Anthony now over Perryman based on the combine numbers... Then again, I'd rather see these guys do the drills in pads too... |

Re: Payton wants to release Galette?
Don't let the combine numbers fool you, put in the tape and then tell me who's better?

Re: Payton wants to release Galette?
I've pulled back the reigns on TCU's Paul Dawson as well. His numbers were a bit disappointing (4.95, 4.96). For some reason I thought he was faster and I've seen him up close and in person at a few games last season.
