  1. I like all of it. Borom is a good depth piece that is still developing. I'm still concerned about the rookie on the left side, but we all knew we'd have growing pains. If we can hit on two more OL next draft, we should be solid for a decade.

    That's good news. He should be a stud there...

    I'm sorry fellas, but Brandon Thorn is a hack. I don't think he's ever played football. Also, he writes articles calling himself a guru. Any credential or accolade he has ever recieved has come from himself or some internet website he has started or worked for. We all saw Jenkins playing well in the run game. The lone pass pro highlight was the only one in which Jenkins looked like he was remotely average. Just sayin, be careful what you read and watch. There's a lot of guys out there trying to make a living.

    That was one of the reasons I said he was a beast in the run game. There was another stretch play to the right where he was assisting the the TE and left just a hair late to get his second level guy. The DB beat him to the corner, but he punished him for it. Love it.
  5. On Fields, I don't have a great way to put it, but he looks more composed than I think he should. It's almost nonchalant. How do you criticize someone for being too composed? A couple of examples are: 1) he had a check down on the right flat. Instead of snapping his turn and firing the ball, it was casual and slow and ended being batted by the DL. 2) he had a designed rollout and he glided instead of sprinting out there. It allowed the DL to stay in a closer proximity to him. Fields made the play, but lost some ability to improvise by not separating more. They are very minute things, but are subtle weapons he needs to hone and maximize his immense talent.
  6. The commentators, during the game, said something like, "it looks like he's been preparing years for this moment." Things we tend to remember...?
  7. It was entertaining and definitely played into my rum buzz...?
  8. Brisker was my star of the day. And you have lost your damn mind if you think Herbert has a remote chance of being cut.

    Keep doubling down...?

    From watching a lot of Jenkins today, he is an OG only. Backup players were in his chest all game. That being said, he is a beast in the run game. His short arms are compounded by not having great lateral agility. At least we know. Side note: Braxton Jones will make the pro bowl in year 3. He has a lot of work to do to become an average LT. Eye test was really promising.
  11. Waddle said by tomorrow Roquan would be over a million in fines if Poles didn't do him a solid and put him on the PUP at the beginning of camp. There's 10% and he's not into real games.
  12. Well put. I heard the same thing about him trying to raise the level of ILB pay and gotta call complete BS. He wants paid, plain and simple. Roquan keeps coming up with emotional reasons to hold out. It was just like his rookie deal. This is not a stand to beat the man situation here, as linebackers have been getting paid for decades. Maybe he should start his form of TE U and see if anyone follows. It's his time to get paid, but dude know when you're outgunned.
  13. Poles would be walking on water upon this...?
  14. This. They told him shit's about to get real...
  15. Depends on what develops with Fields and the OL. Best case is almost always a trade down.
  16. As much as I hate it, it's hard to refute.
  17. It's complicated, because players tend to be far more emotional than agents. Poles even stated that this has been difficult. Poles also stated that they are intent on signing him and making him happy, but who knows what that is. With this being Roquan, who is clearly the teams best player, it is vital to future team negotiations to handle this one perfectly. No agent doesn't help.
  18. Some pretty damning comments came out. Not good. This is the first major crisis for Poles. It must be handled properly.
  19. We want the same thing. No way in hell it's gonna be top 20 though. I'm looking at bottom 25 and maybe get to top 20 by end of season. That is progress and improvement for me this year.
  20. No way in hell we are top 20.
  21. It's hard to speculate how good things will be with so much change. The OL plus Justin will be the key. The other skill positions are totally dependent. On defense, I'm still thinking we get gashed in the run game, which is going to hurt the TOP goal of our O.

    All I can say is that he didn't disappear for ten practices for fat camp. Fat camp is on the field. So there is/were other things in play that led to all the speculation and secrecy. Of course we want to know the "whole" truth, but it may not happen. I'm simply happy that things looked to have been handled to his and the teams best interest.

    Agreed. That's why I think it's a mental issue. They are probably tight lipped to protect his privacy while he gets the help he needs. In the meantime, he could be working his ass off indoors.
