Washington CBs DeAngelo Hall and Bashaud Breeland?

BlueLou : 11/29/2015 3:24 am
Anyone have their PFF or other rankings so far this year? I know PFF does not rank Washington's pass D in the top 10, but am not a subscriber so cannot access their CBs' rankings.

My gut tells me those two are a pretty good pair of CBs, but outside of their play vs the Giants I have little knowledge about either. Important matchups for later today IMO.
hall has been playing safety

So I assume with culliver out hall moves back to corner but who knows...

Culliver was their best corner by far...
Culliver might have been their best corner on paper...

... but Breeland has been the best on the field, where Culliver hasn't been seen much this year. Their least-bad option opposite Breeland might be Will Blackmon. Yes, that Will Blackmon. And Breeland has been day-to-day; unless he rallies from a bug, he could sit too.

Although Hall is still a threat to make an occasional play, there's a reason he rarely plays corner any more.
Finish this sentence....

Back-up safety at that. Breeland had the flu on Friday and has given up six TD passes this season. He will make the occasional play and will get some verbal handjobs on DC sports radio. However, he has not been good this season. Giants need to exploit this.
Blackmon is starting.

I haven't seen a morning update on Breeland. He seems likely to dress, but flu and a lingering hamstring could be a lot for a DB to overcome.

The Washington DBs do have Perry Fewell, so there's that.

Big question might be which crumbles first: the Redskin Secondary or the Giant OL.

Good question!

In the games I've watched, Blackman hasn't been half bad. I thought he'd be a disaster for them.
In the first game versus the Skins

Wasn't it Breeland who they were discussing as being a terrible player thus far for the Skins despite being a high draft pick?
Lots of praise for the job Blackmon did on Olsen.

Washington obviously won't want Blackmon on Beckham without help. He does match up reasonably well with Randle/Nicks though. If Breeland is full-go, he might stick with Beckham. More likely, a safety will shade toward Beckham no matter who has him. Time for other receivers to step up.

He's been inconsistent. At times, he looks really good. At other times, not so much.

DC OL is missing their C and LG as well. Williams bruised a kneecap in Carolina. JPP has has success vs. Williams when both were full strength. Their right side is just better than the Giants.

It's up to McAdoo and Eli to work with what they have. They have had two weeks to prepare.

Is a 4th round pick considered "a high" draft pick? Maybe they just meant that he was stoned when his name was announced.

Sorry I was thinking about David Amerson. I got him and Breeland mixed up. Amerson was the 2nd round pick the year before Breeland that turned out to be a bust.
