Watkins is a WR I have coveted since we missed on him in the draft. Soooo strong to/thru the ball with really good hands.
I really like
Reynolds and
Kupp...and
Everett looks like a YAC beast!!!
The great thing is Wade Phillips handling the defense...and to think with all the late picks we added some
defensive players that might really provide great depth or even starter capacity
(Johnson, Ebukam, Smart, Price & then FAs)...
cuz I kinda only think about how the offense has been upgraded...but the defense has
also!!
btw - I think that it will take 1 year for Goff and
everyone to know the new offense(2nd nature)...and really excel in 2018.
I just think it took time for even MattRyan to master Shanny's new offense irrc...and it was in year 2 that Ryan took off with it.
Same with Gruden's offense in Washington and their QB Cousins after a few years.BUT....
I think we will be MUCH better on offense..... as in
10th-17th rated in scoring up from
32nd last year.
Add to that Wade's very good defense and we might be
cooking with fire this year! 8-8 at worst. imo
Goff is still very young and is maturing/discovering his limitations and abilities as a pro in this new offense.
You NEVER want a rookie QB to change offenses every year or two.....NEVER!
(cept this was necessary, in this case)Best thing is that Goff is like KWarner, imo, in the fact that they are fearless and will stand and deliver from the pocket or on the slight move.
They get hit, throw INTs and never stop coming at you. Both have no amygdala/
fear center in the brain.
I think Goff would thrive under a Martz offense...thrive!!
But I'm so clearly & outrageously biased towards Martz and his offense that you can forget I said that! lol
