That could have been called for a PI.xc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media
lol.Watching the highlights, he seems to struggle even with the new position
Difficult for a player to improve if the instincts are so low, he should play third downs rushing the passer and special teams
He’s not meant to play football at the highest level on a consistent basis.
What is his right position? It can’t be anywhere in the back 7 because he can’t change direction/flip his hips damn near at all.If he'd been put in the right position from the get-go
Listen, I called him a bust. Just enjoy being right, man lolWhat is his right position? It can’t be anywhere in the back 7 because he can’t change direction/flip his hips damn near at all.
It can’t be in the front 4 because he doesn’t have any EDGE experience & lacks any fluidity to win there.
This isn’t a coaching problem. I don’t think it ever has. It’s an Isaiah Simmons body problem.
I remember John Middlekauff saying scouts feared that he's basically just a Dime Linebacker and that you'd have to build an entire defense around him for it to work.What is his right position? It can’t be anywhere in the back 7 because he can’t change direction/flip his hips damn near at all.

I agree he could be released. That said so smart of this staff not gambling on him with the 5th year option.In this the first year of a rebuild, I would not be surprised to see Simmons released. If the coaches don't believe he will ever develop into a starter, there's no reason to keep him on the team.
How would you do that though? I’m still not fully sure what this means.you'd have to build an entire defense around him for it to work.
Basically that it would take an all time defensive mind to figure out how to make Simmons a star player. It wasnt about really providing answers. Just more or so he's not a plug and play player and not a guy who can do everything.How would you do that though? I’m still not fully sure what this means.
lol.

His athleticism is highly overrated. He’s only straight-line fast. He cannot flip his hips at all due to his lower body being so stiff.
He’s also relatively weak in the upper body to rush the passer on a consistent basis. Not to mention, he’s extremely inexperienced there.
He’s an athlete playing football.
I guarantee you this will not be a Haason Reddick situation all over again.
Whispers again....It's why Paris was the right choice over Anderson. Hahaxc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media

This guy is great when he plays free. Stop filling his head and let him react please.
We have to get rid of VJ in order for that to happen
And Billy Davis
Simmons asked JG to put him at safety, I'm sure after seeing his tape at linebacker JG had no problem trying that out. This is the route Simmons thinks can help his career, it's entirely on him this time.It's a bizarre decision to put him at S at this point in his career. It guarantees failure IMO. But this new set of bosses have no investment in him. They probably thought about cutting him already.
Sadly, me too.Yeah..... I think I'm done now.
