CB Eric Green making best out of worst http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/...ins-eric-green-s060109sbjun01,0,4651742.story
I've read he's putting on weight, gaining about 10lbs of muscle. I would say he's serious about making an impression on the coaches. Good news. Seems like an awful lot of the players are motivated to improve on last year's success.
I'd be happy if Green played a solid slot CB for us this season. It's not like he was great in Zona, with a good staff out there. I think the best example of a player who may get much better because of changing teams is Paris Lenon. If you can be the leading tackler on a TERRIBLE team, then imagine what you could do with great coaching and some talent around you. Great signing by the Pats... a guy who could be twice the player with them as he was with his old team.
I've heard there was some problems with the staff out there. I'm not sure beyond that. Just something that was out there.
If anything should be considered from his time in Phoenix, he was always going up in practice against two guys that are pretty darn good: Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin. With solid motivation and improving his physical conditioning, he could turn into a really solid player for us.
i have no problems with Green winning the other corner position, if his play warrants it ... it puts us in a very good position - with Davis and Smith ... especially with the early schedule ... but unless he plays lights out -- i do believe that either will be starting by the end of the season.
