37 Bademosi, Johnson DB 6-0 200 22 R Stanford
C - solid ST play.... 6 solo tackles
80 Benjamin, Travis WR 5-10 175 22 R Miami (Fla.)
B+ - just started to show WR skills before injured
94 Carder, Tank LB 6-2 235 23 R Texas Christian
D - non-factor thus far
88 Cooper, Josh WR 5-10 190 23 R Oklahoma State
Incomplete (I) - good 1st impression; clear that has BW's trust; not clear that he has the skills to separate at NFL level.
58 Fort, L.J. LB 6-0 230 22 R Northern Iowa
C- - great 1st game impression at OLB undone by bad showing at MLB in relief of injured DQJ. Has had impact on Special Teams...
39 Gipson, Tashaun DB 5-11 205 22 R Wyoming
C- - decent Special Team contributor who is (so far) in over his head on D...
13 Gordon, Josh WR 6-3 225 21 R Baylor
B+ - has rediscovered his "feel for the game"; destined to be our new #1 WR
93 Hughes, John DT 6-2 320 24 R Cincinnati
B - has not quite justified his 3rd Rnd status, but has played well and I'm not seeing lack fo effort that was the knock against him coming out of UC...
50 Johnson, James-Michael LB 6-1 240 23 R Nevada
I - good 1st game; then hurt...
67 Kitchen, Ishmaa'ily DL 6-1 330 24 R Kent State
I - Had to look him up... Has three solos... I think I remember one...
60 Miller, Ryan OL 6-7 320 23 R Colorado
Who? Thank God we don't know who...
33 Richardson, Trent RB 5-9 230 22 R Alabama
C+ - Started hurt (knee)... then rounded into form; now hurt again...
72 Schwartz, Mitchell OL 6-5 320 23 R California
B+ - Was not a fan of this pick, and still not vs who we could have drafted, but the kid has impressed me. Few mental errors... good pass block technique (combination of punching rusher's pads while chop stepping on decent feet)... Not the road grader he was billed to be, but will get stronger.
26 Wade, Trevin DB 5-10 190 23 R Arizona
F - Surprisingly low contribution from player often seen on field... seen getting burned...
3 Weeden, Brandon QB 6-3 220 29 R Oklahoma State
C+ - Considering he was a solid F after three weeks, I think C+ is a good grade. Has clearly developed in 3 of the 7 QB areas where he needed more than a little improvement. I wasn't a fan of the pick (especially at 22)... and I'm not yet a fan of the player... but I am willing to learn...
90 Winn, Billy DL 6-4 295 23 R Boise State
A+ - and an easy A+ at that... High motor is one of those intangibles that sometimes elevate an "OK" player to impact status... Billy is one of those guys... I loved the pick... I love the player...

Let me be partially specific, but note, this is a nice topic because for once, we can actually point to plays being made on the field and a team that is starting to look like an actual team.
No secret, I am high on Weeden and Richardon. Haden is the shit and I think he is elevating the play fo the othr DBs. My prediction is THREE Luck Interceptions Sunday.
More like... 'Let me be mostly off topic..."
Pretty sure Ghoulie is aware that Haden is not a rookie... despite evidence to the contrary...
