Little

He got better as the game went on.  My concern for him this year is his play strength.  Early in the first qtr he got shoved back into the qb.  That will come over time but maybe not this year.  Overall he wasn’t that bad.  

But look at it this way.   He ain’t Speedbump McGee.  And for that I am thankful.

He is going to be fine in time.  Blitzing him and Daley during the first preseason game is a dick move by the Bears---OK, you fooled a couple rookies--hope the DC got a contract extension.

I was happy to see how vanilla we were on D.

He reminds me a bit of current Saints LT Armstead and how terrible he looked in his rookie year. Hopefully Little can turn out as well as Armstead has since then...

Same thing with Matthews in Atlanta, looked totally over matched as a rookie and was really good his second year. Especially considering he is from an NFL family that shows how hard it is.

Honestly, and this is in the same vein of "Rivera Iced Kicker to Help Bears Evaluate Him" or whatever....I prefer preseason Ds throw as much at him as possible.  I want him to see those blitz plays.  I want that experience in a game time situation where there is no actual pressure.

I'm no expert but he had a couple bad pressures but otherwise held up fine.

Not bad at all for your first NFL experience ever. 

We knew Little had the measurables to be an NFL tackle. Now it's up to him to correct what he needs to improve on.

Further, I don't see any reason Little shouldn't get the vast majority of snaps this preseason. Experience for him and rest for Darryl 

Has Darryl ever played LT before?  Shouldn't he get some reps in a real game just to see if we need to switch moton over to LT again before the season starts?

I'm sure hell play third preseason first half with the rest of the starters

    • He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.
    • Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings. 
    • Because he won't be here next year, we aren't winning this year and we need to see if Renfrow or Horn can be that guy going forward. If Bryce isn't good enough to do poo without AT we need to find that out this year as well. I'm fine keeping him but his role needs to be slowly reduced throughout the year anyway so we know what we have for the future
