Stafford in Focus

Greenwood is a Slay clone. He can stick in the back pocket and press-re-route well. Injury is the only thing holding him back.

Green is a poor man's Greenwood who has played solid for Detroit when called upon. He's a little slower hence the poor man but rebounded pretty well after a poor first half against the Ravens. 2012 was solid in a few more games.

Bentley is the typicial nickel that has good agility but little press skills. He must work on his ball skills and hold onto some picks finally. He's stronger than expected against the run and again health is a issue.

Lawson is the same as Bentley, a short fiesty player but he needs to work on avoiding PI from college. Tough to gauge a rookie.

How they will do this year, scale of 1 to 100?
 
Poor man's Greenwood? Greenwood hasn't done a thing in the NFL. How can someone be a poor man's version of a player who hasn't even played?

Same type of player less measurables. Greenwood did better than Green in his 2 game action.
 
Enough with the measurable stuff. He hasn't played. Until he steps foot on the field, it's all meaningless. So tired of that stuff, 40 yard dash, what a waste of a stat. How often do players in ANY league (other than soccer), run in an exact straight line for 40 yards?

1. He has played. Just not much.

2. A 40 time is overrated. However, it's more to measure a players overall speed than just tell who runs 40 yards faster. And in the NFL, CB's run 40 yards in a straight line multiple times a game.
 
They don't run in a straight line unimpeded. There's backstepping, rotation, bump and run, etc.

He played 2 games. Where have you been?
 
I think Greenwood can do what Maxwell did for Seattle.

Do you have a comprehension disability?

Scale of 1 to 100..... How well does each play this year?

If your opinions are all backed by research and game tape, this should be easy for you.

Greenwood has good agility. Measurables is more than just 40 by the way.

85-90 potential for Greenwood
80 Green
Bentley 80-83. He'll be a solid player nothing more unless he fixes the ball skills
Lawson rookie bumps 75 with 80 potential or more.

An 85-90 would make Greenwood one of the best 40 CB's in the NFL. Are you saying you think he will play at a very good #2 CB level?

Just want to be clear.
 
Nothing is ever clear with him, just opinion and wishful thinking. If he truly studied the player, he would not be making these ridiculous remarks. He is the only one high on them and that includes some serious experts... He is clearly not one.
 
I don't play Madden anymore, but wouldn't a 90 mean he's like a top 15 CB???
 
Greenwood is a Slay clone.

Lmao. Greenwood went to a diii school in bfe michigan. Slay played at an sec school. Greenwood is a clone Of nothing....even the worst defense In the history of the nfl cut him.
 
How many winning seasons under Mayhew? How many playoff wins under Mayhew? Just because you think he is a good GM doesn't make it true.
