Kawann Short checks in for MiniCamp


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

Nothing to see here... why show up to something voluntary when you are in a contract year and risk injuring yourself? Especially when you weigh as much as a forklift. But when it is time to put in work, he shows up. Obviously it's a game going on between KK's camp and G-man. But I think they are both smart enough to know that he is a valued member of our core and he will be paid as such sooner than later.

Gotta make something outta nothing if you're at the observer.

has he even said anything about being pissed off or unhappy or freaking anything like that?  guys in his situation skip voluntary parts of OTA all the time.  i thought the gist of his comments on the topic was "i'm not worried about that right now, it'll get taken care of" anyway.  i'm sure jeremy knows things we don't but i'm a cheap turd and don't want to buy all pro right now.

We all need to remember poo like this when we go and get mad at the CO.  They can't help themselves.  There are a few that worked there in the past {and a few current, though none of them dedicated sports writers}, that I currently respect up there.  They are a new hybrid of tabloid pack journalism.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
