Dodging “THE TURK” or How to survive NFL roster cuts – Part 2

We looked at one factor per position on the offensive side of the ball that might allow an NFL player on the “bubble” of his roster to secure one of the last spots on a club’s 53 man roster.  Quarterbacks showing smarts, wide receivers with return skills, running backs bringing a different element, tight ends capable at the line of scrimmage, and … [Read more...]

Scouting Football Talent – 1 thing overlooked at every position

With the launch of the NEW Optimum Scouting - FBX tool on TheFootballEducator.com, I thought it would be appropriate to delve into some of the intricacies of scouting football talent at the professional level.  My experience as the Director of College Scouting and General Manager of the Denver Broncos would allow me to listen to thousands of NFL … [Read more...]

Impact Tackles & the need for more Comprehensive Stats in the NFL

By Matt Hamilton There are perhaps no two bigger pet peeves for evaluators who watch countless hours of film than players who receive too much credit from the fans and mainstream media, and players who receive too little. The problem is that often times the differences in players are just too difficult to quantify. Even certain positions that lead … [Read more...]

Big (D)efense in Big D needed for the 2014 Dallas Cowboys

For me the situation in Dallas is pretty obvious. If we have any semblance of a Defense that can stop teams, the Cowboys have a very decent chance. It certainly isn't a given that we will.

Calvin Pryor was selected 18th overall in this years NFL Draft by the New York Jets. Since then, he's not been a rookie to shy away from attention or afraid to talk a big game. Twelve days after becoming a professional football player, he engaged in a Twitter war with fellow first round pick (10th overall to the Lions) Eric Ebron, drawing a great … [Read more...]

Quantifying Jadeveon Clowney’s Combine Using Probabilistic Distributions

By Casan Scott - Baylor University Jadeveon Clowney is thought of as a “once-in-a-decade” or even “once-in-a-generation” pass rushing talent by many. Once the top rated high school talent in the country, Clowney has retained that distinction through 3 years in college football’s most dominant conference.

NFL Draft: The Evolution of the Strong Safeties

NFL Draft: Strong Safety Spotlight For many years, teams in the NFL had a free safety who was a good cover guy with good ball skills and an in-the-box safety that was basically a slightly more athletic (and smaller) version of a linebacker.  The job of the in-the-box safety was to be quick enough to get from his safety position, up into the tackle … [Read more...]
