Big Blue Huddle

Harbaugh, though, is doing the same thing with Alt that the Giants did with Neal.  They are both LTs and just like the Giants the Chargers have a good established LT.  So somebody will need to change sides.  And as we've seen with Neal, that doesn't always go well.

I guess his pursuit speed is the ding on him.  Said if a CB loses his guy, Nubin may not get there quickly enough to cover him.

His instincts are off the charts.  Saban loved him.

Some intriguing IOL prospects should be available too.  I think the niggling thought in the back of everyone's mind at 1925 Giants way is how to make the offense better. That's why my bet is RB or IOL

My notes on Tyler Nubin

-Imposing size - good frame
-A glider and long strider - allows him to access
 funtioncal range for deep half/Quarters
- Very good ball skills - extends and secures passes
- Displined in coverage - doesn't get grabby, well-timed
   hits
-Excellent instincts and eyes in coverage - dangerous
  robber
-Excellent reactive quickness
-Elite periphrial vision/awareness - a threat to undercut
  backside routes
- Leverages elite spatial awareness to create turnovers
- Solid burst in plant & drive downhill - enhanced by
   processing
- Very good zone coverage, split-field safety option
- Sees through routes well - disciplined/patient,
   understands concepts
- Reported film junkie (it shows up on tape)
- Good overall tackler who comes square and
   maximizes his tackle-radius (32 ¼" arms)
- Good presence downhill with proper
   positioning/angles of attack
- Solid blitzing option
- Menace on special teams
- Tight hipped, not very fluid for a safety
- Not very explosive out of his breaks
- Transitions in man coverage aren't fluid
- Below-average recovery speed
- Has range due to stride length/acceleartion but
tightness affects his ability to consistently play the post
- Sub-optimal in man coverage

Overall, Nubin is an intelligent quarters safety with excellent instincts and ball skills. He has athletic limitations hinder his upside as a man coverage safety, but he's sound against the run and a physical presence with excellent size. He'll be a problem for offenses over the MOF, but the Giants must be wary of pre-snap shifts that could position Nubin with an undesirable assignment.

CBS are going.  There should be a good RB available.  Would this be a spot where you would grab one?

Scratch rakestraw, detriot got a real one

Ennis rakestraw and Tj Tampa still there, plus a ton of running backs and a couple lbs. We are going to get an impact player in the 3rd

Commanders desperately needed tackle help and ignored it all 3 picks in the 2nd.
