Robert Rochell Playing Time

[blackbart]

It would be great to hear something about why he isn’t getting more PT. He was supposed to be an athletic freak ready to kick the door in.

I haven’t seen anything to explain his absence on D. Anyone have information about this from the team or a reliable source????

 

[Jacobarch]

Ummm maybe he's not that good. Just a thought

 

[Kupped]

He's still very early in his career.. but.. damn.. I was expecting much more from him this season.

With David Long likely leaving as a free agent, we should expect to see a good deal more of Rochell next season.

I knew he was supposed to be raw, but to be passed up by Durant, Kendrick and Haley has been a bit of a surprise.

 

[Merlin]

Looks like Tarzan plays like Jane?

 

[FaulkSF]

Remember he came from a smaller school so the jump and speed to the pros may take time.

I was wondering the same thing about Rochell the other day. Off the chart measurables and nothing. Nada. And where is Jacob Harris.. our 6'5" freak that runs a 4.4. Not even sniffing the field anymore.

If we use camp as tea leaves Kendrick and Durant are just better.

Idk that we should. Durant and Kendrick seem to be the cb3 and 4.

That's what they said last season lol. I mean the Rams are playing rookies over him. Doesn't bode well for him imo

We'll test that theory next season, but you may just be right. Rochelle has 2023 & 2024 to pull himself together, so we'll see how his continued development plays out.

I’m disappointed Terrell Lewis looks like a miss too.

Didn't we release Harris? I thought he was gone.

Rochell is a victim of Morris' soft scheme. Rochell is better in man coverage, i.e. zone played like Staley's scheme which a hybrid of zone/man. If the Gods are good Morris will be gone next year. Bring back Aubrey Pleasant from Detroit.

Hes on the practice squad.

I like Morris but I think he is gone and I would like to see what Aubrey Pleasant can do.

I don’t think Rochell not playing has anything to do with a specific coach.

Maybe but I agree with Old that Rochelle is a man to man CB and not a zone CB and since Morris defense is mostly zone defense that Rochelle does not match up with Morris.

We could be wrong about Rochelle but I have seen many players not match up for specific coaches.

As an example, Kevin Greene was a 3-4 OLB and when forced to play 4-3 diminished his skills tremendously.
