It's a motivator for the player too and gives the coaching staff an opportunity to see if he looks good/can handle being with the first group. Same reason Blake is getting a chance at TE. Don't know about inside track though, probably just exploring the unknown. It's good he's earned those reps, far better than not hearing anything about him.

Isn't that just what we do? Manage it to the stupidest common denominator. Might as well kill all the animals and close all the zoos because we'll never be able to protect all the people from the animals.

I don't really watch espn much anymore. If I do it's nfl live and whenever I see it in the guide it seems like it's 50/50 that it's even on. Root sports has local hockey games, nbcsn has soccer and I can get nfl games through the computer if I want to. I guess they're trying to simulate these forums by having everyone's opinion on these shows, but guys like Steven A smith are unwatchable for me. The time for a la carte has come, let's get on with it.

Does seem pretty silly and short sighted.

Considering the rigors of the nfl compared to college, it had to be a consideration when they drafted him. Too bad it had to be done now instead of next offseason.

A little less irritating the talent would be good.

Is that really what you did? Thank goodness for you.

I watched his clips from that game on draft breakdown - seems to me MSU was not shy about sending two guys his way. I like to see the opposing coaching staff pay that much attention to someone. On the other hand I thought it was odd that they singled Bosa a lot even though they had Conklin and Bosa did not impress me. I like Washington because I do not think Rex will have him catching blockers - something he doesn't do well yet. I think he will be calling a lot of stunts for him as the LDE because he seems to do that well. We drafted a run defender in Ragland and Lawson seems to stay at home well so all the interior guys can get after the qb along with Hughes and to a lesser extent Lawson. Contrary to some of the noise on TBD, I don't think we've played the run well for a long time and I think adding these outdated, non-modern run stopping types are what the defense needs to balance the team talent and get the defense to the next level.

I say put him in with the wr group for drills to develop his hand eye, then move him back to db for the rest of practice.

So you think he had zero input on the draft as a coach? That he didn't watch film on guys and provide his thoughts?

I find it funny that he is so involved in the draft. From what I remember about his coaching career, he used aging veteran's much more than draft picks - and especially at qb. Seems like he just wasn't good at evaluating college talent as a coach.

Don't worry, analytics is here to cover you.

+1 If you want to watch the film go ahead but I think you nailed it. For example Kujo missed him a couple times, but most of the time once Kujo got his hands on him it was over. It'd be nice if he developed some counter moves, but I think it's going to be tough for him to be effective in the nfl. Maybe special teams will be the spot for him.

Just click on the link under the word website where it says "Watch on youtube"

Looking at that I think safety - I don't know why, just a feeling - but he seems large enough.

Yeah, I don't agree with gruden.

I'm glad pens/caps on

ESPN and the nfl is going to make this unwatchable.

Whaley has already laid the groundwork for TT by saying he is the starter next year, regardless of what happens this weekend. I think the most telling thing from the pre draft actions is Philly's move to #2. I think if any of the second tier guys were good enough to supplant Bradford they would have stayed in place and took a guy or if they felt threatened maybe move a spot or two. By needing Wentz/Goff out of this class even though they have a veteran starter leads me to guess that the 2nd tier of qb's are going later than most expect. I know it only takes one team to like a guy, but I won't be surprised if these qb's drop.

Congrats CBF. At 4 minutes of labor your wife is primed to have a few more!

+1 and put him through a pre-training camp type workout and see how he does. Then we can see how the arm is.

Carson Wentz : Phi Jared Goff : LA Ezekiel Elliot : NYG Laquon Treadwell : Min Paxton Lynch : Dal Bills Pick (bonus) : Lawson

I have two words - Ryan Fitzpatrick. He'll be a member of the jets.

Excellent stuff. Don't know where else you post this, but if you want you can correct the houston explanation in sentence two you meant Hopkins I think.

If anyone has the stones to actually sit the rookie it will be Fisher. I won't be surprised if he starts the season as the primary backup.
