I assume this isn't likely to go over very well, but many of the comments about Perez just strike me as lacking-in-any-nuance, declaration-type statements that he is fundamentally a bad player, leading me to believe some posters fill a void after a loss by the team through making such posts. Lance Anderson commented in an interview earlier in the season that the loss of Barton hurt the team a lot. He specifically said: "hurt us a lot". So there must be something about Perez' athletic versatility that puts him ahead of Branch or Palma. Sorry for being argumentative. As has been touched on in other threads, the position group area holding the team back the most is defensive line (players not named Harrison Phillips). I so wish there were a way for that picture to change this off-season.
