    Speed - O'Brien wants it. All he did was score TDs — rushing, recieving & returns. Short, not small. Ervin can get it done in so many ways. — Mel Kiper

    Watching a highlight video, he makes some really quick directional changes and gets up to speed really fast.

    Another guy who seems like a nice piece but I thought we had other holes to fill

    Id rather stockpile talent and the holes will eventually be filled.

    So it looks like Devon Still is going to get the chance to take over Crick's DE position. He was a second roindee so its not inconceivable to hope he plays up to his draft pedigree with his daughter's illness now behind him.

    Kick returner and possible weapon as a 3rd down back, I like it.

    I think we're getting a glimpse of the confidence the team has in guys like Pagan and Christian Covington.

    As long as they're taking guys they have highly rated then I'm cool with it. Trust the process and let's see Bob finally have an opportunity to truly implement his offense for the first time in his tenure.

    One thing is for certain - they're trying to make it as easy as possible for Brock to succeed.
