I am not going to say his talent is that of our former first round pick WJIII, but Jackson never quite seemed to buy in to things here, and even took a shot at the organization when he left. He has been poor for a middling Washington team, and a very poor value, as we are getting better CB play by even Mr. Eli Apple, at about 1/14th the cost.
Spain has that team-first, high-motor energy that we needed on that offensive line. I love the guy. He is a better player at this point in his career, but he reminds me a bit of Mike Daniels, who still works his ass off on the practice squad and will undoubtedly be in TV someday after he retires.
Spain has been a huge find, and the other Guard spot may be settled with Adeniji. I don't think Carman is done by any stretch, but what Adeniji has done, coming off injury, and in a position he has never played, is nothing short of amazing.
I also have high hopes for D'Ante Smith and Isiah Prince. Quality depth is a big deal....And I am sure they will keep adding more through the draft. But, yes, Spain needs to be here.
Agreed. My biggest worry is that other teams dangle huge amounts of money in front of him. He has that "Mr. Undrafted" attitude and told the world this is the season he is coming in fully healthy, with a full camp, and will show the world what Quentin Spain is about. He has....
As for your points about the other young guys, I have zero worries about them. Adeniji has been here 2 years now, so by this time next year Carman will be on his 2nd year. They all have time to progress instead of being forced in, and by the time Pollack is through with them by the end of next camp I expect them to be much better. And considering they aren't bad now, that's a great thing.
