Curtis Jacobs

Anyone think this guy will make the team?


I want a jersey with my last name.

But we won’t. Jones probably makes it and Jacobs gets cut.

There are gonna be 2-3 roster decisions this year that kinda piss me off. As much for who we keep as for who we cut.

How about Owen Carney? He made a couple good plays Saturday. Pretty large young man.

Not crapping on FAU at all, but he didn't look any better than Carney or Truman Jones. Admittedly he was probably gassed for a part of it.

Yeah - FAU has really looked the part of a 3rd day pick thus far; mostly a JAG sort of player.

That's not to say I don't think he belongs on an NFL roster - I think he does. But he's definitely not starting caliber.

We'd be well served to continue scouring for DE help. After Karlaftis and Danna, we don't have anyone that can really be counted on for 1st and 2nd down. And frankly, FAU may not be all that useful on 3rd either.

He has a long way to go yet.

Trey Hendrickson had just two sacks combined in his first two seasons as a pro. I think FAU just needs to get his first sack out the way to really give him confidence. That tackle for loss he made in the superbowl was quality. He just needs to get to the QB and finish. Once that happens I think he'll be fine.

It’s going to be hard to dislodge Cochrane as both Spags and Toub seem to love him.

We all pick on Dee Ford for obvious and deserved reasons, but he did turn in two double digit sack seasons. We’d all sign up for that from FAU at this point.

Ford did jack shit until that breakout game against Chargers toward the end of his second season.

Maybe FAU has a similar trajectory? Hopefully without…ya know…lining up offsides to lose the AFCCG.
