Eddie Goldman

The best way to describe the training camp and preseason for rookie 2nd round pick Eddie Goldman is “streaky.”  He’s had moment of brilliance, flashing up the middle making plays.  Then he sort of sinks into an abyss for a stretch where even backup offensive linemen can push him around.

That happened a number of times against the Colts as he was unable to hold the point of attack on a number of run plays up the middle.  Considering the fact he’s expected to become the nose tackle of the future in this 3-4 defense, that is not something that can continue.
