If so, you slid under that closing door 3 years early. The team can't give him a new contract until he's played 3 years.

Plus jed doesnt want to pay him....

Im about to watch the blair witch project tonight. I hope its as scary as Blair's play...

I heard it's very close to the 1st Blair Witch..

My money is on Blair to have a great game Sun. He won't be our one hero, but he'll be one of them. Look also for AA and DeFo to have huge games, against stud players. It was noted somewhere earlier, that the poster was just hoping/expecting a good game, whether we won or lost. I will be disappointed if we don't play well. Degree of difficulty is probably 2x, or more than Mon nite. Whatever, it would really be nice to see us play as well as Mon nite on short rest, against one of the top 3 teams in the league. I just want to see a good game, and want us to leave the game knowing we played well. W/L a lot less important.

Interested to see what all they do to get Blair on the field & involved more as the season goes along

I think we need to hold our horses a little bit on Blair. I'm excited about his potential, looks like we grabbed a good one with a 5th rd pick.

At this point, his snaps are limited. He played 7 snaps against the Rams, so I wouldn't expect much production from him until they expand his role.

Can't remember...

How many snaps did Aldon play in his first game?


(I don't think there's any chance Blair flames out like AS has)

Aldon played most obvious passing downs. I like Blair. He is no Aldon in terms of his talent or his off field issues.

Right. Aldon played all passing downs and in Nickel as a rookie, so probably around ~60-70% of snaps. Blair is nowhere near that if Monday night is any indication.

I like Blair a lot, all I'm saying is people shouldn't have unrealistic expectations of what he can produce in 7 snaps per game.

Any chance he's inactive with Dorsey back this week or maybe TJE? Curious which 7 are the inactives

with lynch out, i doubt it. We are running 4-3 sets alot and he is suited for the 4-3 DE role. Id be surprised if we list him as inactive even when lynch comes back. Guy is a baller

I think Jerod-Eddie will be inactive. I would be really surprised if Blair was

Should have been G. Smith that would be inactive.

Yes. You heard it here first....3 years early
