Brady Christensen and Tommy Tremble

[ericr0319]

Any buzz around these guys in camp? These are two guys I was excited about drafting, especially Tremble.

Tremble looked really good today. Caught some nice passes. 

 

Christensen is still a backup RT

Why aren't they playing him at RG or LG??? He is not going to play over Moton and has got to be an upgrade over Eiflien or Miller. Rhule claims he wants the best 5 on the line no matter the position. I like him getting reps as the swing tackle just in case, but if he is a "second round guard" why is he not getting any work there...

hope Tremble gets a lot of work. No reason Thomas should see the field over him.

Mark it down.

 

Tremble will be the best blocking (non OL) we’ve had since Brad Hoover. 
and you’ll see him make an impact this year.

Moton did not start a single game his rookie year, playing only 6% of the snaps.  I guess they have a longer term view than we do.  If RT backup is the plan, BC will grow and develop well behind Moton.

When Moton was taking reps at LT, I had hope the BC could earn the RT spot, but I understand that they are easing the rookies in, which is the smart play.   Even those of us predicting BC would earn a starting spot somewhere were not saying it would be day one.  Behind Moton, who is rarely hurt, it seems BC isn't going to play as much.   Lets just see how this plays out.

This oline has been a wild ride. 

Someone will probably surprise us and someone will probably disappoint.

I put a post of one of Tremble's catches on today's camp thread.

I don't think cut, but he probably won't be starting.

Ziffel had a higher ceiling and did it without steroids…

Don't forget Christenson is already 24... he should be pretty much ready.
