"As the highest round tackle that GM Dave Gettleman has ever drafted, Moton has so much expectations on his shoulders."

replace "so much" with "great."

Not only that, but "so much" should be "so many." It's also incorrect because you can't use "so" without following eventually with "that."

Also the second part of the sentence has nothing to do with the first. Every player has expectation on his shoulders. How does that specifically apply to being the highest tackle ever drafted by Gettleman?

A better sentence would be:

Because he is the highest tackled ever drafted by GM Dave Gettleman, he has expectations on him different than previous later round picks.

Don't care.

if you're gonna force people to click through more slides than paragraphs you've written, you should at least hire a copy editor.

I will do it for free!

I just took the GRE earlier this year. I got 168 on verbal, and 5.5 on written.

Don't ask about math.

Great pix and observations, thanks Jeremy.

LOL at the discussion.  I've worked as a copy editor..., so I confess I noticed a few typos, etc.

BUT loved how this rookie camp has got you waxing poetic!

"hopes are high and optimism can almost be seen, floating like a fog just above the green turf "

Awesome stuff.

I think the word meticulous describes you well KB.

Back to football, and not just discussing words...

Very excited to know Samuel is flashing such talent.  The combo of Cam, CMC & Samuel seems like it could be something fantastic to rejuvenate this team on offense.

It's good to hear that right from the start they're giving Moton snaps at LT.   With Oher's situation so shaky and uncertain, this is important.  I hope this kid can handle it and will provide us some added depth at LT.  Perhaps he helps up the competition at 2 spots, not just RT.

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
