Carl Nassib
-
And no im not getting over it. Not getting over watt, not getting over mack etc,etc,etc.
No browns fan should get over this dumbass drafting we've been up to for years now.
That's part of the reason I turned into a big curmudgeon the last couple months. I'm going to let that go- at least until after the draft next year.
-
The thing that we have right now is that it looks like at least three of sashi and co's picks are going to pan out. Too early to say but Coleman, Nassib and ogbah all look promising. When was the last time we hit on one draft pick much less three?

Id say you could probably throw Schobert in there too
-
How about our pair of 4th rounders at Safety. Campbell-2015...and Kindred-2016 both looking good! ?
-
Kindred is certainly panning out, the guy looks very solid. Campbell too - it's a shame they're both hitters and not coverers.

hmmm...how about the last 2 years??
Shelton, Orchard, Duke, Cooper and Campbell....2015
Bitonio, Kirksey and Crow.....2014
Id say most of these guys look promising too.....
And if we're judging after just 2 games....throw in Terrence West, Pierre Desir and Charles Gaines for good measure(as they all had us excited early, as well)....
Lots of young talent that could develop.....
And not trying to be a downer, cause I like these guys, but OIgbah and Schobert haven't really shown much yet, if you're asking me...(schobert 2 tackles-2 games....& Ogbah has 3)
-
While they might not be showing much, they're not really being shown up either, which is a nice change to Mingo not being able to do anything about the run.

And let's not forget Scott 'Bloodbath' Solomon, our secret weapon.

Good ole Pettine.

i was just reminiscing about him too. lolAnd let's not forget Scott 'Bloodbath' Solomon, our secret weapon.
easy come easy go.
regarding rookie production...Higgins grabbing up a fumble is absolute par. or should be. requires pop warner level awareness. Moore would have. Gabe would have. Hartline definitely would have. so Hollywood who took their spots had better too(!). on a bad note i do suspect he ran the wrong route and is responsible for that McCown INT. Josh was helmet-slamming-pissed. i loved seeing the Tom Brady-tantrum-level of caring about winning.
there's a lot i like about this team.
on topic Nassib has stood out in all 6 games. as has Derek Kindred, who is a fucking stud.
it's happening...

#Browns DE Carl Nassib suffered a broken hand yesterday, source said. He’ll have surgery, and they’re assessing how long he’s out.

Kindred got eaten alive yesterday by an old injured TE.....made a few tackles, but was burned on pass coverage repeatedly...
I like Nassib and he can be disruptive, but he still is fairly easily handled, only has 3 tackles and pretty average run stop skills.....
Yes...Kindred is a hitter.....a solid box safety(SS).....but they have been giving him FS reps and his coverage skills are really lacking.....meaning he's a one dimensional player, best suited as a SS who needs help......not a FS and not a well rounded SS....
So....while they've started better than some recent rookies, Im still not on that "these guys are GREAT" train, yet.....
-
That can be said for just about every player we have that does OK to good.....cause we have gone SOOOOOOO long without greatness, that a lot of fans over react and think average/good IS great......Nassib being compared to JJ Watt is a classic example......one of the most ridiculous things Ive ever heard about a guy who only has a few games and tackles under his belt....and is deficient in so many areas.....lets just be happy he's earned the right to play on a terrible team, before we start with the HOF bullshit......thats talk for 5-8 years from now....
Sad how low the bar is.
Sad how low the bar is.
nobody compared him to JJ, it was a question of could he be the next JJ, by the way JJ was no JJ when he first entered the NFL, He beacme JJ by working his ass off. Something that Nassib is currently doing. Well after he heals that is. Needs to play old school, put a cast on it and play.
-
Better than Kruger's 0 tackles, amirite?
Well....it's only 2 games....so too early to call em great or bad.....but "technically" Kruger averaged 1.7 combined tackles per game(last season/his worst year) and Ogbah, Schobert and Nassib are a bit lower.....Og and Nassib are at 1.5 and Schobert is at 1 ....
Soooo....to answer your question.....NO......not yet....
Im certain they will be better(which aint saying much), but at this point, they aren't.....yet......which is why it's too early for so many to be saying "best draft ever".....JJ Wattish......Nassib/Ogbah are monsters, etc.etc.....
-
Is it too soon to think Carl Nassib could be the next JJ? His ascension into the starting lineup after one game could be a sign. Call me crazy but I have to hope that this could be our most successful draft since the Browns returned.
Of course it is obvious we were playing with a D2 college roster with the previous regime's and most needed replaced, but the future looks bright with most of our draft picks. In 3 years this teams will be a force.

Ok....call it what you will.....
Answer....YES!

I didn't think that Kindred was responsible for covering Pitta. I saw Poyer far more often out of position...plus the LBs had that assignment at least half the time, no?

He is a rookie with 1.5 games played. Give it time.

How about, they are the best we have at this point and are doing OK and getting better train?

Man, our defense surely misses Kruger. He was great

Kindred has stood out in every single game and he is a fucking stud, as an individual and as a football player. there's no debate there.
as you know our rookie strong safety did not exclusively cover Pitta--if that's who you meant.
old? injured?? i couldn't tell. and that beat up ancient ass was still wiley enough to eat up everyone that covered him all day including a vet w a decade of exp aka Tramon...who also did not deserve the harsh criticism some folks have piled on him (not on TBB but elsewhere).
the rookies are low hanging fruit. wanna pile on there's plenty of material in others like Poyer or your boy X Cooper. all my evals from preseason game 1 have been spot on and it's worth noting i never said they were all world, just that they stood out which is absolutely valid. ..whereas at that time i recall you defending Gilbert and praising Scoob...both of whom are no longer even on the team. just saying *jab jab* (edit: SW3 cleared waivers>>PS)
just because others are overboard doesn't put me in their box, at face value my words are accurate and not hyperbole. perhaps we should hold the starting free safety accountable for his shitty play instead of the rookie SS that is apparently expected to pick up the slack at another position that i agree is not his best skill set...or maybe the front office that didn't try harder to keep Tashaun Gipson on the team. the fact a rookie SS is even covering a TE is crazy and gives us some ammo to shoot at the DC for scheme and responsibility or Sashi for roster. the wet blanket might be necessary to temper some but nitpicking guys that are getting vets cut and benched just seems...i dunno. pessimistic?
especially one that has (ONLY) 3 tackles, multiple hurries/pressures and hits, a batted down pass (or two) in only a game and a half while splitting reps. Carl Nassib's rookie production is Paul Kruger's wet dream.
i repeat Derek Kindred is a fucking stud. the dude is always near the ball, his instincts are great, his closing speed is elite, he's a sure tackler, takes great angles for a rookie and is great in space--doesn't get juked nor been denied thus far. tons to like. he gets a rookie pass on those criticisms which are frankly undeserving and unrealistic expectations for a rookie safety first off the bench in his 2nd NFL game.
obviously they are not great yet but if you deny they are capable of great things or haven't done anything great whatsoever...we can just agree to disagree.
