OrthoPTSD Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Reaching out to film guys for serious evaluation, as well as you guys like myself who are not, on Sheffield season. He certainly has passed my eye test, and for a rookie has been a pleasant surprise with his play. Ive seen nothing but bad ratings though, PFF has him buried.(I know they are not the all knowing, but I do agree with their top rated guys) I cant recall him getting beat bad in last several games. Worst I saw was in pre season so have to be excited for his getting over a learning curve. Is it more of athleticism or technique for his ability to stay on the field?

MoFalconsFan56 Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 I think he’s legit. But I also think Oliver sucks ⚡Slumerican⚡ and octoslash 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliver is another on the pundit low ranking tier, a few clicks ahead of Sheffield, which seems odd, I guess the rankings don't account for getting completely burnt with wide open receivers, which I have not seen much of with Shefield MoFalconsFan56 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The O.D.B Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Without being developed yet, you can see he belongs in the NFL. With the right coaching/development he can be a shutdown guy. I also believe once his form improves that he has the hands to make QBs pay for throwing his way. He's also tougher than I expected him to be. I didn't think he'd be the type of player to stick his nose into the frey and I was wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFromSpain Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Since we moved Morris to db coach, Oliver has improved a lot. Not saying he is an all pro but he is above average. Sheffield is doing ok for a rook but he looks lost from time to time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliver for his bumps, has also shown toughness this year, just read he will be playing Sunday after non contact all week with shoulder. Kuddos to him Francis York Morgan and The O.D.B 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrthoPTSD Posted December 14, 2019 Author Share Posted December 14, 2019 I was under the impression that Miller was more polished than Sheffield coming out, will be good to see him get 30 snaps per game last few games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's right, TD was more impressed with Miller than Sheffield on Sirius Radio days after the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Run 'n' Shoot Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 As far as the eye test goes, it does seem like Sheffield is usually in good position and when he is beat it is on a really good pass. I also don't see Oliver getting beat as often as others on the boards see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
