First off, Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
Watching film is very important in a lost season. Everyone talks about how this is the time for player evaluation and this is how to do it.
Prior to the off-season, these were my preconceived notions:
- Wylie could be serviceable
- Curl needs to be paid NOW
- Paul >>>>>>>Charles and could solidify LG.
- Cosmi could be All Pro at RG
After steady player evaluation since the trade deadline, here’s where I am at:
- Wylie is trash
- Curl doesn’t make enough plays to be worth 16 AAV.
- Paul is trash. So much so, I am seriously considering calling Demerits “the Chris Paul award”.
- Cosmi is barely serviceable at guard.
With that in mind, I leave you with questions for the rest of the season:
- Under Ron, does St. Juste get better?
- Does Curl leap off the tape to justify 16-17 AAV? So far he just doesn’t?
- Does KJ Henry grow into an acceptable rotation piece?
- LT as draft target #1? IOL in FA and later in the draft?
Sadly, the Giants game was Tim’s last film session of the year and I THINK the Dallas tape has made Mark skip studs and duds this week.
After Washington Beat Reporter John Keim film review (Defensive highlight against Dallas), Hoghaven’s Studs/Duds (not for Dallas game unfortunately)+ Grading the Game, TimTalkinSports Film Review (stopped after Giants) and my own All 22 review, here’s how I evaluate the games from the holiday:
Cowboys:
Gameballs:
Absolutely no one, you don’t get game balls for that performance.
Demerits:
- The Magical Trio of Suck (Leno, Larsen, Paul)
- St. Juste
- Cosmi, Butler
Giants:
Gameballs
- Mayo (game of his life)
- Allen
- Henry
Demerits
- Paul
- Leno
- Larsen
Wait your watching film and saying cosmi is serviceable. Aint no way you watching…i agree with everything else but to say cosmi has not had a good season is shocking. Clearly we are not watching the same film.
Again this is a compilation of 5 different things so 5 analysis shows he’s barely serviceable which isn’t saying he’s not been.
He has had a slightly below average year and that’s not just me
