I would imagine it's a bit of a shock after having been in Southern California and Minnesota all his life,  having missed almost all of last year, and recovering from surgery. He just needs to stay healthy and he will be fine. The talent is there.

A couple of observations...

*The reason I don't believe in Funchess is because he really struggles to get separation.  Yeah, he had a good day in 1 on 1s, but as they repeatedly said, the defense isn't expected to win those, and even with that being the case, the window to throw to him is to tight, it is frustrating to watch.  Then, once they went to 7s and 9s, I heard nothing else about Funchess.  A late tweet said both he and KB were having good "team drills," but no tweets identifying Funchess specifically once they began team drills.  I just think he disappears too often and again, his inability to create definitive separation is frustrating...  Just my take.

*Matt Kalil seems to be doing a lot better the last few days, but is it just me, or on those video clips tweeted out, specifically the one of him vs Addison, did he not false start?  It appeared he moved well before anyone else, which IIRC, he had issues with at times in Minny when facing speed rushers.

Hearing Kalil doing well really does put me more at ease. I think his main problem is being explosive enough to go against speed rushers, and looks like he's handling them really well.

I think we may have found our franchise LT if he keeps this up through the seasons. 

FIFY

Are you watching in person, or are you just going by these tweets? I ask because I have most definitely seen Funchess get separation in real games.

Also, I think Corn may have lost himself a roster spot to Cole Luke.  And I am going to have an extremely hard time not calling him Luke Cole the rest of the season.  Two first names, FTW...

I know, we need a nickname for Cole Luke, especially since Luuuuke is always just referred to by his first name.  Agree Elder's injury jeopardizes his spot.  Cole Luke has shown up when it mattered so far.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By strato · Posted

      Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances.

      Dan had a great draft

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
