Lurker Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 OTAs are essential. Yes, but the PR commentary on which draft choices are 'looking good' is not. More like blubs from the marketing department than anything else... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazedandConfused Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Yes, but the PR commentary on which draft choices are 'looking good' is not. More like blubs from the marketing department than anything else... Agreed. Particularly as the roster is set for most positions, the player assessment part of the OTAs is pretty meaningless. However, if one follows the team and not the personalities, the OTAs are simply an essential part of TEAM building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paup 1995MVP Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Exactly. You have to take all of these "reports" coming out right now with a grain of salt. According to many, Ellis Lanskter has been the most impressive rookie at our camp. Raise your hand if you think that he's going to be making the most noise of the group in a couple months. With the amount of injuries our DB's seem to suffer every year, Ellis Lankster could very well be seeing a lot of playing time, at least in nickel packages at some point in the season. From the reports from OTA's, etc. it sounds like the guy has at least some instincts for playing the position. And that is a good thing. I would rather hear this than, the guy looks lost out there.
