Message: <blockquote data-quote="TJV" data-source="post: 464653" data-attributes="member: 4300">I again caution about drawing conclusions about the play of the D vs. a bad OL.I do think his wrist has a lot to do with Perry’s play but also his learning curve is steep – he is playing a completely different position than he did in college. The only question I have about him is how dedicated he will be. I’m not saying he’s lacking in dedication, I just don’t know how dedicated he is and will be. I have the feeling the jump from year one to year two will tell the story for him even more than for others because of the position switch. The next offseason will give Perry the chance to pinpoint his training to shore up weak areas of his game – remember before the draft he trained as if he would be a DE in a 4-3. He’ll never be the pass rusher Clay is, but with his physical attributes, his upside is very exciting. While seeing the advance of the rookies – and others like House - next season should be very interesting, Capers is right: If they stay healthy, the rookies will be better at the end of this season and the D improved over where they are now.  Anyway, I really like the end zone shots the linked site uses. And they point out how important pre-snap deception is. It’s not only about matchups and schemes (although they’re important), from pre snap through whistle, an NFL play is a chess game in fast motion. </blockquote>
