He looked slow last year. I don’t thInk he’s the answer, but we don’t have many options.

We need to see if the Eagles want to move Rasul Douglas.

Re: PJ Williams to Start in Place of Crawley vs Falcons

I'm all for it. No guarantee that PJ comes in and plays any better, but it's worth finding out. Crawley has been hot smelly garbage so far and a message needs to be sent. I hope both guys respond well to this move. I thought PJ was borderline first round talent when he came out, I'd like to see him finally live up to it. Crawley has been through his share of ups and downs and has been pretty resilient to this point. Hopefully this helps him take another step forward in the long run.

P.J. was definitely late 1st-early 2nd round talent. Injuries have always been his issue. I really want to see us make a move for Rasul Douglas though. I like his potential. He’s a big corner.

I was really bummed when he had that bad concussion a couple years ago. I liked what I saw from him in the very small sample size that season. Looked like he was primed to become a starter for a long time to come.. I could very easily believe that a scare like that one affected his play last year. If memory serves me I think Payton said it was the worst concussion he'd ever seen. I know that would stick with me for a while. I just hope getting benched made up his mind to put in the work to get back to being the player he's capable of being. Guess we're gonna find out pretty soon.

I like Douglas too, but I wonder if we have the necessary draft capital at this point to make a move. Unless we could throw in a player. I'd love to dump Vonn Bell off on someone. We'd be paper thin at safety but we already pretty much are, even with him here.. dude's like a mirage out on the field, you swear you see him but he isn't really there. Of course when I get to thinking about that I realize that no one in their right mind would take him off our hands. Sigh.

On another note, I still wish we'd found a way to keep Delvin Breaux around. I don't think he was done, I think he was another one who needed some new motivation.

I feel bad for Breaux. Really bad. That concussion Williams had though...it was pretty severe. It put him out for the entire season if I’m not mistaken. Personally, I wouldn’t have come back. I want to play with my kids. I wouldn’t take the gamble. I agree with you though, Williams looked really good before that. Last year...not so much. He had his moments though. I still believe a lot could be fixed by changing the scheme.

2-Man Under
Cover 2
Cover 6

I wonder what it would take to get Douglas. A 5th? 6th? I’d do that.

Von Bell has been really good so far though. Surprisingly good.

I disagree with this move completely. Unless my eyes deceive me PJ Williams is average at best. I prefer Crawley.

Re: PJ Williams to Start in Place of Crawley vs Falcons

I read that on the late long TD vs Browns, Crawley has to chose between two receivers and didn’t recover. Maybe bit of scheme to blame.
