From where I'm sitting the top 5 in no particular order is Moton, the 2 rookies, Paradis, and Delay.  Who backs them up? That is the question that needs answered.  

Irving and Elfin are in there somewhere so that's 7.  There will be 2 more spots I assume up for grabs.  Who you got?

I try not to get to invested in *anything* pre-season. It's just so rarely a good indicator imho.

Having said, that I do see some bright spots...and areas for concern. We'll just have to let things play out. I'm hopeful for a competitive season and think that's reasonable. Playoffs would be a nice surprise. If we stink it up...well, back to the drawing board.

Proabably Miller and Scott.

I agree. I think because we got so badly stuffed that they called another run on 4th to see it again. Darnold having a play action fake rollout TD to say Arnold isn’t as important as figuring out who should be the LG.

Elflein and Paradis were both blown up.

On the plus side Erving did a good job of creating that lane but the FB got hit way too early because Elflein and Paradis got blown up so badly. If they don’t, the FB has the let block and an easy TD.

We are going to regret taking a LS over Trey Smith*. We needed to continue to take OL like we did with Brown and Moore (even if he didn’t work out). From an article yesterday:

"Let me tell you something about Trey Smith," ESPN analyst Louis Riddick said before Friday's game. "This is a sixth-round pick who may wind up being their best offensive lineman. He's going to be fun to watch tonight. He's going to have some highlight-type blocks.”

Daley and Smith at guards and you don’t have this happen. Brown in the future too. Elflein isn’t a mauler at all and will probably prove to be a waste of money. fuging LS over a guy with day 2 talent. Pick the LS up after the draft.

* Again, I loved the draft but that was a mistake. Take Smith and it’s potentially a draft we can talk about as our moment of turning the corner. If Brown and Christensen work out, this could have been our fix the OL draft with a 3rd and two 6ths. fuging LS.

Trey Smith being the guy with medical red flags, right?

I yea this is very optimistic. I’m very skeptical of that Oline. It’s been a problem for years. It hasn’t been addressed properly and at other times ignored. We’ve known it’s a problem. I hope the coaches know it’s a problem (sometimes it’s hard to tell).

This isn’t a surprise, it’s not new, it’s obviously a problem.

I think Miller is in that top 5 group. Maybe not Daley.

      Umm yeah. When did he get it done at the right time? I seem to remember a 4-6 finish and needing Atlanta to win our way into the playoffs but whatever.

      I mean....no lies detected. See above. We have traded a fortune to draft a guy #1 overall that people have lowered standards for to the point that not playing like Jimmy Clausen and looking like a poor man's Kyle Allen occasionally is worthy of a contract extension making him one of the highest paid QB's in the league. That is cope on steroids.

      summary: "let's talk about your draft, what did you think about Freeling" Dan:   guys with a huge upside, can come in and compete to start.  High ceiling "he does what for your offense?" Dan:   it's hard to find left tackles, guys that big and athletic.  We have Icky coming off an injury, we signed Walker, I believe your offensive line can never be too strong.  If we're going to win the game, it's gotta be up front on both sides of the ball, so we make a point of emphasis on making both sides of the front as strong as possible. "how many mocks did you see Monro falling to you." Not many times, left tackles are gonna go a lot earlier than when we took him.  We want to add the best player, in free agency or the draft"  that's our philosophy, to get the best players possible. "Hunter and Brazzell." Dan:  we followed the board.  Lee we felt very highly of him , super strong.  Brazzel so flexible and loose, can open the verticle.  Will Lee we held in high regard. "you take a look at your receiver room, Coker, my goodness, your offensive rookie of the year in Tet.  Lost Rico, but there is Jonathan Brooks. " Brooks coming off two knee injuries, he worked his way back, looking great, fully healthy, will help in pass and run game.  Icky, not sure when he's coming back but we're excited about both "plan on extending Bryce" we'll keep talking, will keep internally.  We believe in him, has such a great grasp of Canales and offense, has improved every year. "he's clearly come back from the benching, the arrow is trending up, where does he feel" Bryce knows where we stand with him, when and if a deal gets done, he knows we feel great with him, we'll get something done at the right time. "if this a prove it situation?" everyone in the building has to prove it, has to earn it. Tmac was everything we wanted, his work ethic, he's so big and talented, but he puts the work in, and is a great teammate. "your level of expectation, the building's level of expectation for 2026 "our goal is to win the division every year, we know we have to earn it.  we have to put the work in every day, proving it on the practice field, and our  guys know that." "schedule" we haven't opened at home in 2 or 3 years.  We love prime time games, hope we get some "
