Even bad teams don't trade good LT's lol. Many of them are trying to find a QB and one major issue would be throwing a young talented guy out there only to get devoured. [Reply]

Also, check out how the safeties react to him. He draws a lot of attention for a washed up WR that can't run. And because the defenses overreact to him, there's often wide open spaces for other receivers with no safety help over the top on the other side. Gee, I wonder if Andy can find a way to exploit those situations? I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Finally, check out that when DHop does run a go route or some other deep/vert route, that even though the DB is often right there on his hip/half a stride back, DHop many times has leverage either inside or outside; he's open if the pass has air under it to the correct side. He will make those catches.
Yeah, I am liking that! He is damn near perfect for this offense. Just what we need. [Reply]
