FalconsIn2012 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I know it’s just OTA’s & Mini-Camp, but how did he drop to the 7th? Redskins DB Jimmy Moreland intercepts 3 passes at OTAs Wednesday by Jordan Dajani Former James Madison cornerback Jimmy Moreland told us he was a pick machine earlier this month, and it appears that he was not lying. During OTAs on Wednesday, Moreland intercepted three passes, and had his defense fired up. Even though he's a seventh-round pick, we shouldn't be surprised. He foreshadowed this. "I got the energy and the confidence level of being that type of player for them on that defense," Moreland told reporters at rookie minicamp. "The turnover ratio wasn't that good last season but I'm a pick machine, so I'm trying to get that turnover ratio up and get my defense off the field and get my offense momentum back." The first interception was apparently an incredible one, as JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reported that he had no idea how Moreland came down with the ball. He also said that the sideline got fired up for him. About 20 minutes later, rookie quarterback Dwayne Haskins overthrew his receiver, safety Jeremy Reaves was able to tip the pass and Moreland was right there to secure possession. Then, 40 minutes later, Haskins tried to throw a touchdown in the left corner of the end zone, but Moreland jumped the route and took it the other way. Overheard Doug Williams tell someone that Moreland has about 10 interceptions since the start of OTAs," Stackpole tweeted. "'He's a thief.'"

VTCrunkler Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 In b4 folks start saying “it’s just OTAs”. I also wanted him in the draft. He bears watching on down the line as one of those “who got away”.

high impact Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Well I would be more impressed if Washington had a any QBs. I am happy for the man as it would be nice to see a 7th round pick prove he is way better than the scouts thought he was. I am sure if the Falcons had lower level QB throwing passes during OTAs even True would be able to come away with a few pics. During the real season we know how that goes.

Jimmy probably won’t even start in the slot this year. But a nose for the ball isn’t teachable. Just like Kazee...just has s knack for being around the football Jimmy is a gambler though and has been beat badly a few times in OTA’s as a result.

Yepp I thought he was the perfect nickle corner for us, but alas we got Kazee playing there and I like Sheffield I think he can also end up being very good.

I like our guys that we drafted. They both fit the length model that Quinn loves. Moreland didn’t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
175_Ranger_Falcon Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I’ll be curious to see if he can keep it up during the preseason. Can’t teach those sort of instincts and ball skills though. Could be a steal for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Run 'n' Shoot Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 He was a 7th round pick for a reason. Pretty much every team, including the Redskins, would have taken the corners we drafted ahead of him. Best of luck to him. I hope he proves a lot of people wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He bears watching on down the line as one of those “who got away”. One guy you wanted is also looking good. Adderly. Is the coach saying he is trying to hurt people? Bradley gives a pair of rookies high marks During OTAs it may be difficult for rookies to gauge the tempo at which to practice. Lynn said safety Nasir Adderley was a standout on Monday, but the compliment came with a caveat: Slow down the pace in an effort to protect your teammates. Defensive Coordinator Gus Bradley praised Adderley for how quickly he’s grasped things. VTCrunkler 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
