His dad built a home training facility
which is perfect during this time.

Addicted and obsessed with football

Saying all the right things..

Consistent tackling machine under different coordinators.

Succeed during tough times....will take on challenge to be ready even if no otas, no camp etc

Goal is just to get better, constant improvements.

Dallas, Eagles and even Redskins have splid offense.....that they need to be ready.

Tough crowd, tough fans...will push him

Knows some guys from Stanford
Pat added that Blake will be the QB on defense

Is a hugh advantage under this conditions, as not only will he be ready....he will make sure everyone else will be in right.position
thank you for transcribing - maybe this is typical offseason optimism

but i've warmed up to the Martinez signing. The mental side of things is critical for whoever wears the headset on defense, especially if it's a new player and new system. I'm not sure if Schobert (don't think he did, Kirksey?) or Littleton had that experience, but even if they did they certainly didn't have it with Graham as coach.

So in theory while I'd have preferred to get a more mobile coverage player, getting the right guy to lead the defense may be the bigger deal. If he sucks as bad as Ogletree did on the field it won't matter but there's enough encouraging stuff out there that I don't expect that to be the case.
Me too...

I was very concern about his coverage capabilities....and its still probably not a strength.

But considering this crazy off season, new coaches ....his mental strength will be invaluable.

Hell, last years defense were still making mental mistakes throughout entire season
yup a lot of that is on the coaches to fix more than whoever wears  
Eric on Li : 3/31/2020 4:51 pm : link
headset. But first step of the coaches fixing it is getting players they trust to not make mistakes and to play unselfishly (especially guy on the headset). So it's a little bit chicken or the egg.

If Judge is staking his success on Graham building a good defense, trusting his belief in specific players is part of that. Judge's high opinion of Graham (AHC) could be the evaluation that sinks or swims his entire regime.
