Surprised. How much can they have learned about the rookies, so far?

but but but according to some Huddle experts Worley is a bum!

I can't say that I am surprised at all. The 3 CBs we got in the draft are going to play well, often, and early.

Has more to do with how good Sanchez looked, imo.

Wow. Just wow. I'm questioning this one. I wonder if there's more to the story on Boykin.

I actually wonder if he may have asked for a release, no reason to cut 3 guys to sign 6 when you have 5 open roster spots.

EDIT: Well, guess his tweet disproves that.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
    • He had heart surgery a while back he looks Fraile I hope he is okay
