Juju Hughes signed to active roster

[oldnotdead]

An interesting prospect who has experience at both CB and safety. At this level he's basically a safety. He's got slightly better than average speed for the position with average length. He looks like a SS at this point and in college showed he is willing to come up and make tackles in the run game. If he pans out like I think he might, this would give Staley huge depth at safety.

Since he plays a soft zone, having depth at safety is a must. Staley's zone concept is basically a cover 2 scheme in the way it's played. He leaves the short zone fairly open with the idea of coming up to make tackles and waiting for an offensive mistake. That passive concept IMO seems to go against the type of players he has like AD and Ramsey who are super aggressive in their style.

Interesting. I would like to see what he has to offer.

It's obvious that Staley likes this UDFA DB. This is the 2nd time Juju has been activated. Might push Rapp in time as the 3rd safety with Fuller on IR. I am disappointed in Rapps performance thus far. I also believe Burgess is more of a Nickle prospect than safety.

Toothpick guy??

Toothpick guy??

Yes it is.

 

[dolphinlover123]

Seems like hes at the top of the PS on the defensive side. I guess with Fuller out it makes sense.

Someone needs to pay his momma to slap that shit out of his mouth. Grown ass man with a toothpick in his mouth all the time.

Can't imagine the NFL allowing him to play with a toothpick though.

Was just about to ask if this is the dude with the toothpick.

I love to see opportunities like this. You can practice all you want and evaluate all you want. But shit doesn't matter until Sunday. Some guys are ballers. And just don't show it on paper.

Never know what we may get. Exciting

Toothpicks are funny. Its like youre keeping it handy to get some future food outta yo teef.

Maybe ill try hangin a kleenex outta one of my nostrils and walk around like that. Itll be a new trend with colorful hankies. Im bringing hankies/sexy back

 

[Ram65]

Is he a smaller Rapp? Tackles low like Rapp. He shoulder tackles a lot without wrapping up. Let's see how he does with that in the NFL. He does attack downhill though.

He said he doesn't play with it in his mouth. Only practice and every other minute if the day.

Truth all over that sentence.
Love it when the underdog comes out of nowhere and shines.

Why did this guy decide to eat a hedgehog? I mean, I get having them as pets, but eating them, I do not understand.

Looks decent in coverage. Good instincts. Areas Rapp needs to work on.
