I actually like Dupree more than most. But did they just predict 10 sacks?
Good to see players, in these first two games, giving the coaching stuff difficult decisions to make on who will make the team.
Dupree doesn’t blow like ppl say. Like I said a few mo ago, if you look at his numbers, he’s an avg OLB. He’s just frustrating as hell because he overruns so many big plays and has tons of talent, but he’s the king of almost.

As I said, I like him more than most. But only 16 players had more that that last year, it is awfully optimistic of a prediction.
So you’re saying he’s the ZAR of the Steelers...lol
Could someone be nice enough to give me a run down of the game? I had to miss this one.
With what I've seen thus far from Rudolph, I'd have zero worries cutting Dobbs and keeping Hodges as a project at 3. That guy has moxie and has shown more than enough to warrant a chance. The arm strength is questionable but he throws a nice, accurate ball. Dobbs is what he is. A career backup who will make some plays here and there, but will also cost you if pressed.
I think Rudolph is Ben's successor. I was on that train from the time we drafted him and won't be getting off anytime soon. His growth this year is so damn obvious. He just operates like a pro who's beyond his 2nd year. His poise is what sets him a part from other guys we've drafted at the position over the past decade.
Washington is going to have a big year, in part because he's obviously improved, but JuJu is going to command a lot of attention. I think the similarities to AB are striking when it comes to Johnson. The way he gets off the line is already well above average and his route running looked crisp. The way he darted/shifted after that first catch was a mirror image of AB. The body control on the BS non TD and then the awareness and skill to track and bring in a tough lob for the TD that counted were beautiful, veteran type plays.
JuJu is 22. Washington 23. Johnson 23.
Sucks that Ben is going to only get a year or 2 with those 3 but honestly, with them, Conner, Samuels, etc, Rudolph should be stepping into a prime position in 2021/22.
Meanwhile AB is claiming that the NFL not changing their helmet rule just for him is proof of the entire league being racist.
Admit how much you miss him.
Roth said he plans to play out his contract at minimum. That will take him to 39, and guys like Brady and Brees are still going strong past that age.
Unless he gets injured, I wouldn’t doubt Roth plays 3-4 more years.
Rudolph is going to do a lot of sitting for the next several years barring injuries, and I’m more than ok with that. Once Roth officially retires, I’ll worry about his successor then.
