Will be interesting to see how Norv and Ron decide to use Cam. Starters normally don’t play much in the preseason but will they want to see how that arm is before opening against the Rams...

Camp will give a lot of opportunity to see his arm and in a way where they can test it exactly as they see fit. I sort of doubt he plays that game.

Don't hold your breath. I don't think they're going to want to push Cam to hard too fast nor expose him to unnecessary hits in the preseason. Plus, I think they'll want to keep the Rams guessing as to the status of that arm too.

I'd be shocked to see Cam throw a deep ball in the preseason even if his arm is back to 100%.

I think it’s a major tell / red flag if they don’t test Cam physically in a live situation before the opener. I can’t imagine the plan is to save all of his game throws until week 1. He has to show them where the shoulder is at before the Rams game, right?

That's what practice is for.

Yeh I’m saying it’s a problem if they hold him back all of preseason. 

When are established players ever pushed coming off of injury in preseason? Hell, established players are generally protected through the preseason even if they're not coming off of injury.

I compare it to a pitcher coming off Tommy John. That same pitcher is going to go throw to live hitters in live games at some point in the minors or spring training etc before he makes his return to the big leagues. I hope they see where’s he’s at in the 3rd preseason game at least. That’s all I’m saying.

      Thoughts on using AI for drafting?

      By NCBlu · Posted

      Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.

      Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
