[QUOTE="rodell330, post: 525065, member: 6676"] I've looked over the roster on Defense and have determined that really only Matthews is a high impact player. Raji has just become ordinary.. but i think he's in a spot where he isn't being used correctly and quit frankly?? i think he's out of position. I think he needs to be moved back to DT because he has completely dissapeared wayy to many times this year to the point where they are taking him out on passing downs?? I can honestly say there has been three games this year where i didn't even hear his name. I've been ******* Raji because i know the guy has potential to be a force on the dline..he just hasn't over the past season and a half. Not good for a guy who wants a contract. Mike Daniels has outplayed him and Raji is another former 1st rd pick. The secondary isn't making plays..Sam Shields is our best cover corner imo but he's still not a guy who we can count on to eliminate half of the field yet. For every good thing Tramon Williams does.. he does three dumb thing's nowadays. Like miss a tackle, get beat for a touchdown, or gets a flag at a crucial time. Making over 7 mil this year and is bascily our 3rd best corner. Not good. Burnett has the size and ball skills to be a top Safety but he has also taken a step backwards. I've seen him miss some tackles that a guy of his caliber should make and he doesn't have a single int. Not good.
