Id like to see what Locklear can do at LT, Diehl is a valuable run blocker but sometimes a liability in pass pro, so id rather have him on RT so he could get a TE chip.

BaLLiN · 08-18-2012, 06:41 PM

locklear isnt looking bad, some good plays some average plays

lol, Yeah! Wrote that after having a couple of beers :p I'm even more drunk now, but I'm concentrating really hard on writing proper English! Hope it's understandable!

Jayron! This kid is gonna be awesome

OSUGiants17 · 08-18-2012, 08:14 PM

Can we stop putting Wilson in with our worst OL? I wanna see what the kid can actually do.

BamaFalcon59 · 08-18-2012, 08:21 PM

VT! Hosley! Wilson!

I wonder if this happened as he was scoring the TD, where he was dragging his foot and toe as he crossed the goal line.

So, this cold tub incident with JPP and Prince. Is it something to worry about, or just locker room banter? To me, it seems like fun and games. But I don't really understand why Prince is the target either way? I thought only rookies got hazed?

It's nothing. Sounds like JPP was getting back at Prince for something.

Yeah. Damn media though. Trying to hype up things and make a story out of nothing. Weatherford should be smarter than uploading this to the internet.

Went yesterday.

Two thoughts:

1) Ware should give way to Wilson more in the freaking preseason. Ware is a known commodity. I have no problem with him earning the No. 2 job because he's a dependable pro, but at least give Wilson a chance to get in a groove with the starters in PRESEASON. It doesn't bode well for him that they don't give him any first team reps in games because they probably don't think he can pass protect.

2) If Keith Rivers stays healthy...

Yeah it was dumb Weatherford posted it online. Coughlin wasn't happy either and said he would address the team.

Exactly. They aren't going to let Eli take hits he doesn't have to.

So let him play with the first team OL and Carr.

Was the first team OL out there with Carr?

I don't believe so. I am pretty sure Carr has played behind the 2nd string OL in both games. Wilson played with Perrilloux and the 2nd/3rd string OL.

No lie, those two being drafted to NYG made them go from my least favorite team to perhaps my second favorite.

well im happy to say that ive liked VT prospects for awhile. My favorite by far was Brandon Flowers, I didn't even care about his 40 time, he was just a beast.

Vtech always has good corners. And you know when you get a Vtech player they are going to know how to play special teams.

Giantsfan1080 · 08-19-2012, 07:45 PM

Hosley was my favorite pick in the draft by far. He's going to turn into a player for us. It's early but I think he ends up better than Prince just because of his style of play. Prince will be a good #2 though.

BaLLiN · 08-19-2012, 07:47 PM

I dont get why you are abandoning Prince already, he shut down jordy nelson in GB in the playoffs without any nfl experience basically.

No no no I'm not. I like Prince and enjoyed what I saw out of him in the playoffs. It's not a knock on him but just the potential I see in Hosley.

BamaFalcon59 · 08-19-2012, 08:01 PM

Flowers was the best CB to ever play at VT, or at least the best of the ones I've seen. Short, slow, and somehow absolutely dominant.
