Merged: Young Linebackers/Pope

[SkapePhin]

Young Linebackers

They did an EXCELLENT job today.. I was impressed with Pope yet again.. he filled in nicely for Seau.. Or did he take Crowder's old spot?

my top 3 picks in the 06 draft:


1st - AJ HAWK
2nd- Greg Blue
3rd - Jay Cutler

Pope did well LAST year filling in for Zach. I like this kid. Good pickup by the WannSpiel corporation.

i think he filled in for crowder since they moved crowder inside, regardless he still played a good game

Derrick Pope

You see, since last year during the Seattle game, I was very high on this guy. I had said over and over again that Derrick Pope will stick around and he is worth keeping and he is one hell of an LB.

Some people disagreed.

So question: How did you like his performance?

I already mentioned in another thread that I thought he did well

I hope he sticks around. I kinda wonder, given his diminutive size and the Saban preference for big guys. Shame to throw that guy away or keep him on the bench.

I actually believe Pope is the future of the LB corps, along with the Crowder.

Pope's size is fine for the "Will" position he will be around for a while.
