And yet we're already making comparisons to a 1,500-yard rusher?

;)

if we can do one we can do the other.

i like the kid but he's got a lot of growing to do. a whole lot more than williams did when he started. the kid has a lot of talent but he has some serious maturity issues.

williams was far more polished when he got here.

give goodson some real game experience and a year or two and maybe. right now he just has a lot of potential and a lot of talent. that doesn't very often translate into success.

How do you get that he has a lot of growing up to do, or that hes immature? Because of that one half assed throat slash?

that was an indicator of some of it and there is some other stuff. he had problems in college and also the way he responds to screwing up. the captain is going through some of the same things. long memory and beating himself up about it.

it's no real slight on him. he's only 22. some 22 year olds are mature beyond their age and others aren't. some take longer to mature. he falls into that category. doesn't mean he will stay that way.

      I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).

      Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.

      Austin named starting center

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
