"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.

      Possible, he is physical and a forchecker but not a needle mover, but i wouldnt mind it, although I think we have enough 4th line grinders right now between Carrier Robinson and Janakowski  down there, i actually really love our 4th line.            We need scoring in the top 6, and a RHD at this point its definitely coming via trade.            Rasmus Andersson I hear may be on the market, it feels like every couple of seasons someone links us to Erik Karlsson.       As far as centers go,  Marco Rossi (even though we have a ton of smurf already)     Jordan Kyrou is an intriguing option if he is available.           At this point i think Rod should just move Jarvis to his natural center position to give us a 1B center...   yes hes also a smurf but he plays way bigger than he is stylistically.

      The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.
