Washburn is a d-line coach and Tulloch is a LB but it's neverthless interesting that Washburn and Tulloch were together both in Tennessee and Detroit. There may be mutual respect there.
Is zach vigil back at practice or still out?
I dont know why people are so down on Kiko. His instincts were great and his biggest weakness was his physicality. He will get better angles throughout the season.
People thinking he is going be Ray Lewis are sadly mistaken. He is not going to destroy RB's but he will be able to get them in the backfield for tackles for loss.
He had great play recognition all plays he was in... even the ones he got run over on.
He's very good at play recognition, has excellent awareness, especially down & distance, but the guy's tackling at buff (and I watched every tackle he made - its available on YT), is not great given his size. He was heavier at buff, and he grabs the ball carrier high, standing him up, then tries to manhandle to the ground. He ends up getting carried forward with the runner's momentum - like Crowder.
"According to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald, the Miami Dolphins have expressed interest in free-agent middle linebacker, Stephen Tulloch this offseason. The Miami native was released by the Detroit Lions back in July , and has received very little interest since. Despite Miami’s interest in the veteran linebacker, the team made it clear they were only interested in signing Tulloch to a cheaper, team-friendly deal. Tulloch is hopeful he can get more money elsewhere, and the two sides remain at a standstill." http://www.thephinsider.com/2016/8/...nterest-in-veteran-linebacker-stephen-tulloch That doesn't sound like much interestBarry Jackson reported Lb Stephen Tulloch is high on our radar. Wonder what that says about kiko. Would be good addition if for right price imo
