Perfect example of the lunacy of the Red Board

 

Discussion is move MLB to DE

 

In that discussion JC says this " you're trying to lecture me but don't even know how this defense uses personnel" and then follows iot up with "You know the Bucs moved Lavonte David from OLB to ILB right?

 

🤣 🤣 🤣 Totally get why some of the old/great posters on here left.

You know the Bucs moved Lavonte David from OLB to ILB right?

The responsibility of OLB to ILB isn't as different as MLB to DE. Plus, Lavonte David is next-level mentally on the football field.  Devin White isn't.

For the record, I posed the question about moving White from MLB to full-time pass rusher as well. I agree it's worth trying out on the practice field, but it's not the easy transition you're making it out to be. Maybe he can, maybe he can't.

 

Don't say DE. You know the DE's in this system are guys like Gholston, Suh, Hicks, Hall. You know I'm talking about walking him out, keeping him stood up and letting him use his speed to play in space. 

 

 

Full-time pass rusher on the LOS. We're playing semantics. He would be moving from and off-the-ball MLB to playing on the LOS as a stand-up pass-rusher, going against OT's one-on-one the majority of the time. It's a completely different position. Maybe he could do it, but - again - it's not the simple transition you are making it out to be. It's nothing like moving David from a 4-3 OLB to a 3-4 ILB.  Those responsibilities aren't that different at all, and with a really smart player in David - the transition was seamless.

GMs sometimes do dumb second contracts to avoid the second-guessing of the pick, but hard to imagine the Bucs paying White after games like the  "I'd ask for the C off your chest" game.  That was White with the big contract still hanging out there in the future.

@biggs3535 Hey Rand PPPaul . .  my position on the topic "Serious question about moving Devin White to Edge" is the same as Detrimental and the same its seems as yours.

 

Take your crying somewhere else.

 

There's no point in doing anything other than mocking guys like you and JC5100 because you're all just here  as UNserious trolls.  JC even took the opportunity -- AS I POINTED OUT -- to call detrimental version of "DUMB"  ( you dont under stand the defensive system)  . . AND THENH FOLLOW IT UP WITH SOMETHIGN REALLY dumb (they moved LVD)

 

as you know THAT IS YOUR SIGNATURE MOVE

The responsibility of OLB to ILB isn't as different as MLB to DE. Plus, Lavonte David is next-level mentally on the football field.  Devin White isn't.

For the record, I posed the question about moving White from MLB to full-time pass rusher as well. I agree it's worth trying out on the practice field, but it's not the easy transition you're making it out to be. Maybe he can, maybe he can't.

Full-time pass rusher on the LOS. We're playing semantics. He would be moving from and off-the-ball MLB to playing on the LOS as a stand-up pass-rusher, going against OT's one-on-one the majority of the time. It's a completely different position.

Couple things. 

1. We are playing semantics because you labeled the move as "MLB to DE" when you know damn well it's MLB to OLB.

2. I didn't say full time pass rusher. One of his strengths is tracking down ball carriers between the hash and sideline. I said in the original post he can play curl flat and man. 

3. I never said it was simple. But after 4 years he's clueless at MLB and we're down bad at Edge. Something has to change or we have no chance. 

4. I brought up the David example because some idiot made it same like you can never change a players position. There's countless other examples within the Bucs of players moving around. Marpet played center, Ronde played FS, they even tried to moving Jermaine Phillips to LB. But god forbid our bust MLB, who is only good at blitzing and tracking on the sideline, move 6 feet over so he can blitz and play hash to sideline.

That is both a lie ( thats why JC says "made it seem [sic] like") and a troll

I really wish the Bucs tried to deploy White like Parsons. Bowles insists he's a LB though and his contract is expiring soon. After last year, there's now way you can say he deserves an extension.

 

This would be interesting but man Parsons is a freak.  He must be several inches taller than White and I think faster even.

 

Yeah I think Parsons is like 3" taller and 10-15 pounds heavier. Plus he has played DE since HS days so its a natural fit for him full time. 

 

 

You know what's not a nature fit for Devin White? Inside Linebacker

 

well he'd be even worse at DE. Mauled on run plays and has zero pass rush moves so..

 

You play him at his best position which is LB in which he's shown spurts of success in until its time to replace him.

 

 

You're trying to lecture me but don't even know how this defense uses personnel. 

 

False. White ain't playing here EDGE/OLB let it go.

 

Imagine being a NFL coach moving a players position to one he's never played before at ANY level HS, college or NFL. Imagine thinking because someone can run through gaps untouched to get to the QB by the product of his DL he'd be able to win on the edge 1v1. Couldn't be me

As stated on page 1, Dallas moved Parson from ILB to OLB. Is that better for you? And if White can be just half as productive as Parsons and we get an average ILB to replace White then the defense will be significantly better. Does that help your low IQ thinking understand the move?

If we're going to move him, it needs to be off the team.

1. We are playing semantics because you labeled the move as "MLB to DE" when you know damn well it's MLB to OLB.

The difference between a 4-3 DE and 3-4 OLB is negligible.  A 3-4 OLB is a stand-up full-time pass-rusher.

 

Posted by: @jc5100

2. I didn't say full time pass rusher. One of his strengths is tracking down ball carriers between the hash and sideline. I said in the original post he can play curl flat and man. 

You're advocating he play Edge -  the same position as Shaq Barrett, JPP, Anthony Nelson, etc.. All of those guys are playing against OL 90+% of the time. He's not going to be playing curl flat and man very often at that position.

3. I never said it was simple. But after 4 years he's clueless at MLB and we're down bad at Edge. Something has to change or we have no chance. 

Agreed. But he may actually be a bigger liability at Edge if he can't hold up at the POA.  That's what Detrimental and I are talking about. Maybe he could do it, and I actually thing he could because he's a freak athlete. But the possibility that he couldn't does exist. You should acknowledge that point.

4. I brought up the David example because some idiot made it same like you can never change a players position. There's countless other examples within the Bucs of players moving around. Marpet played center, Ronde played FS, they even tried to moving Jermaine Phillips to LB. But god forbid our bust MLB, who is only good at blitzing and tracking on the sideline, move 6 feet over so he can blitz and play hash to sideline. 

Again, Marpet moving along the iOL isn't a big deal.  Every team in the NFL have swing interior offensive linemen.  Ronde, another extremely smart player, going from CB to FS is nothing for a player like Ronde. Even moving Phillips from S to LB isn't the same kind of responsibility jump that MLB to Edge is. I'm pretty sure you know this. Not why you are acting as if these position changes are equal.

JC  . . to the part in BOLD  . .. you are the one having trouble conveying your thoughts in words?

 

(you're not actually, you're just another thin-skinned ninny posting complete BS under the hilarious notion that you're somehow a GM lmao.  Detrimental accurately responded with the difference that you're just now circling back to  AGAIN. .  as Buggsy makes the same point to you AGAIN)
