They are playing Cam for a full half without the right side of his line?  ruh-roh

Williams is not a bad backup at tackle or guard on either side.  Pretty versatile across the board.  Scott is also a good guard when he's in shape, which I believe he is now.  Should be okay.

At least the right side is the sight side, but my bigger concern is line continuity and chemistry between a rookie and a new tackle.

 

This is it to me. Rookies, new players and old players in new positions require time to gel probably as much as any group on the field, including QB/WR. 

 

Practice is one thing, but there's a reason many teams allow their o-line starters to play longer than skill position starters in preseason. Turner and Chandler could really use this time together under fire.

I've really tried to find the positive in the Harper signing, but I just don't know what Gettleman was thinking on that one.

Just a couple years ago he almost broke the sack record by a DB in a single season. He could be a complete beast in the run game and blitzing. That's all the upside I can think of but he was a pro-bowler and is better than our backups. DG couldn't have anticipated any injuries.

I'm pretty worried about CJ, didn't he play last game?  Now he's back out.  Not good.

 

I know it's just because I follow this team hardcore compared to other teams, but I feel like our health on Madden collectively as a team should be like rating 5.

      Noah Fant? "Perfect fix?" More like imperfect fix.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      I've liked him since his rookie year as a prospect, but when he's been asked to play in a large capacity, he has simply not done well.   He does not really add anything, rather muddies up the room.  Fant is TERRIBLE as a blocker, a pure receiving TE.   Let's just put Tremble aside since he's PUP (although I still like him as a TE2, but yeah he's not our future starter)... Sanders has already shown better receiving skills than a Fant and has a nice ceiling.  Not to mention, he's got in-line run blocking skills.  I really want to see what he's capable of this year.  Also has a year+ experience now in Canales' offense, not to mention legit chemistry with Bryce. And after Sanders, I also imagine our staff is waiting to see how Mitchell Evans looks in camp as he's got the in-line blocking skills.  If he looks fully capable of filling in behind Sanders, then I don't see a need.  Overall, keep an eye out on early August moves.  They are usually soft indicators of how staff's view their rookie late rounders and roster overall.  This is a wait and see what the market presents and how they think their unit looks in camp.

      Every team has different needs of the backup QB.   On some teams a young hopeful makes sense and on others an old worn out dude makes sense.  We are a little more in the in-between IMO where you probably would prefer a Fields, Pickett, Howell type IMO.   So a young disappoint that you there is still some hail mary hope in.....given BY essentially was benched both seasons for performance (I know that's not the official line going into Seattle but I think most would agree he got a break and should of been benched later that year).  I know we want Bryce to be the week 17 guy all season this upcoming year.  But it's still in the reasonable thought process that the other dude could show back up.

      I wouldn't mind it if they bring him in cheap for competition. I would imagine he would vie for the 3rd TE spot with the rookie.
