[@TopBillinSports]

Pretty sure I didn't say anything of the sort. So, because I don't find him to be better than Reed Blankenship, that somehow means I don't think he will be "anything?" Automatically putting him over Reed is wild when Reed outplayed him, and it's not like Reed was in his 7th year or something, Reed had one more season of experience.

[@ryancampbell1847]

[@TopBillinSports]

If my responses to you are that, which didn't include talking about you personally, calling you out of your name, or anything, it was literally strictly a response to your comment you LEFT ON MY VIDEO, then you are the one who is outta pocket. I never said you shouldn't have your opinion, I simply disagreed with it and stated why. I'm starting to think Philly YT cats aren't actually from around this area, because this is how we speak all day in the streets in the Tri-State Area. Some of these responses to simple dialogue is WILD. Please show me what I said exactly that was "out of pocket," Sir? You're the one who put words in my mouth when I never said Brown wouldn't be anything. I pointed out how he didn't play better than Reed for him to be automatically placed over him. You then said I said something I clearly didn't, and I said "I didn't say anything of the sort." So, please tell me. Help me out in that regard.

I love the in depth breakdowns boss. That’s why I keep coming back. You actually know what you are talking about. Blankenship is one of the highest graded defenders from his class. I know PFF can be garbage sometimes but it seems that every professional grading system has him as a really solid starter on any team.

[@TedTeddy-ej3dp]

Thanks for the breakdown. I can't wait to see how Dejean will play (or where). I think I agree with you that he's an outside cornerback. I don't want to take snaps away from Reed though if we move Coop to safety. I'd be pretty happy with Rodgers in the slot, and Quinyon and Dejean on the outside. Although, it seems like Rodgers has limited slot experience. But hey, if he's better than Bradberry in the slot, then I'm okay with it.

You da man I watch your videos consistently..Also dope to see you mention the white corner stigma ..I agree we gotta stop the cycle of that bs and you a real one for speaking on it imo 💪💯 Let's Go Eagles

[@matthewmcguigan4293]

I like the fact that he plays disciplined football. That's going to be essential in the zone heavy Fangio scheme. Looks like he's communicating well and trusting his mates, which is vital. Looks like he knows how to use the sideline at his other teammate (probably part of the reason why you want to put him at outside CB). If the starters are Mitchell and Slay, he can get work in rotation, but might get a chance to get on the field as a third safety (for those formations). I wouldn't want to overload him with too many things to learn in year 1, so I'd have to imagine his playtime will be from rotation or injury.

[@Funny25ize]

Love these breakdowns. Shows the physicality he plays with. Especially on that pick route. Also, the streets need that Jalyx Hunt breakdown too. People been talking crazy about him

[@TopBillinSports]

Those are though evals. First, the evals will have to be done with broadcast footage and I'm not trying to work for free, especially with Eagles content. I'd throw Seattle fans a bone because they support my platform very well...Second, have you ever watched a Houston Christian game? I highly doubt it lol. So, co-signing what you see is kinda scary because the competition level is going to be as low as it gets...I'll see what I can do, though.

[@ezaaron52]

Thanks!

[@TopBillinSports]

Hey, brotha, thank you!!!

[@kware28]

🔥🔥🔥 Great break down

[@Byronic19134]

What a difference a year makes. I been banging the table for more DB prospects because the direction the league is going, like look how many WR’s were taken in 1st round and look at their 40 times as well. We needed not only young blue chip DBs but they need to be fast as well, and that’s exactly what we got. Now we got Mitchell, DeJean, to go along with Ringo, Ricks and Rodgers, while having CJCJ, Sydney and Reed still at Safety. I think we are going to keep 12 DB’s between CB and S on the roster.

[@NoLimitMeenYt]

@@TopBillinSports a white CB, my initial thoughts was wow they trying out for that position...but like you said we gotta get past that and focus on his actual ability

[@TopBillinSports]

@@tryagainb9669 - It's not like he was a white CB playing in a wheelchair league or YMCA. He was at Iowa and was getting in people's ass in the 2nd best overall conference in the country and showing himself worthy of anything that a lot of these other corners get who are black, with a lot of them being overrated. As black people, for us to truly advance and be at where we should be, we can't act like how racist white people act and expect something different to occur on our end. If someone automatically wrote off a black QB because of his skin color, which I see everyday, we'd all be pissed. This is no different. Get it on merit.

[@tryagainb9669]

@@TopBillinSports you are right that is why I said your intro was spot on

Eagles have a Black Franchise QB, and will start a White CB with a white RB playing on 3rd Down to finally live up to the “END RACISM” they have painted on the back of their helmets.

[@tonyb460]

Happy we added speed to the secondary. Mitchell 4.33. Isaiah 4.28. Dejean also has great football speed on the field. And a lot of these guys can return kicks and punts. That's something we haven't had since sproles, i think. And that was only on punt return.

[@Russ1559]

Hells yes, athletes are athletes. Appreciate what you said at the top. Let that bullshit go

[@NoHandlzz]

Im so excited to see how Fangio uses this depth in the secondary. I know he likes to give a lot of different looks so I see Dejean taking a similar percentage of snaps as he did in college on the outside, nickel, and safety depending on the situation.

[@TopBillinSports]

Can you elaborate on how many snaps he took at each position once he actually became a starter, bro?

[@NoHandlzz]

@@TopBillinSports he took 114 in the box, 1183 on the outside, 163 in the slot, and 58 on the line.

[@TopBillinSports]

@@NoHandlzz - I meant at each position, bro. If he's playing corner, and they are in man coverage, he would end up in the slot if a team motions a running back out wide, ya know? But that doesn't mean he is playing the nickel position. Darius Slay has played in the slot, but that was because of those types of situations, he wasn't necessarily a slot corner. You get what I'm saying?

Good looking, fam!!!! #Salute

[@seriously_illy5231]

I most definitely agree with his ability and talent to be a great DB in the NFL. My question I would ask you is this. Would he be a better Safety at the next level or DB...? DeJean has a high I.Q , great ball tracking skills, and a take it to the house mentality with the ball in his hands. Wouldn't you like to see him be able to play more freely on the back end...? Just a question regarding the positions.

[@TopBillinSports]

Jalen Ramsey has all those same traits, does anyone want him to play safety? Corner is a premium position, my man, as they face players on the other side who can wreck a game plan. If he didn't have the skill set to be a corner then safety would be fine, and I'm a former safety, so it's not like I don't value the position. As for this team, that already has Reed Blankenship, Chauncey Gardner, and Sydney Brown at safety, with very suspect corner play and nobody who has proven themselves at corner beyond the two vets who will be gone after this season, there's a clear path to victory to make the best secondary possible with him at corner. If he plays safety, which I'm sure is more likely than not because the NFL is legitimately an old-boy's network, he will be damn good, too.

Drop a video explaining how reed Blankenship I a good safety. He can tackle yes. But he is slow, he doesn't cover well or deter teams from throwing the ball successfully. He is a capable back up at best. He is a big reason the eagles pass defense was atrocious last year

[@TopBillinSports]

[@TopBillinSports]

Not every comparison has to be based on race.

[@Byronic19134]

@6:34 I wonder if Cooper is playing the hands on this deep ball because the WR actually never shows his hands and Cooper never turns around. The play before as soon as the WR showed his hands Cooper did as well. I know that’s how I use to play CB I would play the eyes and hands to track the ball in the air when it was behind me because usually the WR eyes widen when it’s coming so I would know, pause.

[@TopBillinSports]

Wide Receivers don't run and look at birds in the sky, pimpin. If he's looking in the sky that means the ball is coming his way; the sooner you are in phase and can track the better chance you have at making the play. You can't rely on a WR to always give you a key because some are savvy enough not to do so.

[@temp-td2uk]

Highest floor in the draft combined with an incredibly high ceiling. Cooper will probably be a better player starting off than Quinyon but that’s conjecture. He helps the team NOW compared to later and will likely play all positions in the secondary at a pro bowl level.

Too early to tell because I need to know which vets will be on the roster, like Bradberry, as well as which position Dejean is going to play and Isaiah Rodgers, too. And there were two rookies last year who got a lot of playing time towards the end of the season. I would imagine Slay would start if he's on the team because he would pitch a fit if he wasn't and would have to be cut or traded, so that would make a bunch of dudes vying to start opposite Slay.

It’s interesting you showed a play where he jammed the corner and then did a banjo vs 2 wrs trying to cross the cbs up. Because last year, it seemed as if the eagles cbs either refused to do that and would just retreat. Do you think they’ll start doing that (banjo) now that the seondary is directly under Fangio? Or do you think that’s simply not an option under his scheme?

[@TopBillinSports]
