In terms of recovery, it is. What kinda sucks is that he's basically a redshirt rookie next year having gone through a camp and preseason but only a couple of real games before getting hurt.

It is what it is though. But yeah, in terms of recovery time he should be plenty ready to go for camp. Had we been in the playoff chase it's possible he could've even returned late last season.

He was pro-ready day 1.  That hasn’t changed other than he’s had a full year of NFL weight training and nothing to do but go back to the fundamentals aka rehab.

Slater was the correct choice for us, IMO.

I don't think that has anything to do with how good Horn will be as a player, however. Everything about him indicates he will be a great NFL player in time.

I like the Horn pick. 
 

We’re a low Slater pff grade in 2022 from no one believing he should’ve been picked over Horn. Especially if Horn had the kind of year we expect.

It goes beyond PFF grades. He played very well and certainly looked the part of a franchise left tackle. Barring some Matt Kalil-like fall, that one will hurt for a while.

I was screaming "Take Slater!". Was saying it here before the draft as well. Been asking for OL since Cam was QB1 years ago.

You can not underrate what a corner who can shut down one side of the field can do for a defense.  I believe that Jaycee is that guy, and will be All Pro soon.  

If he stays healthy he will be the best corner in the NFC along with Lattimore. As far as pure intangibles he’s off the charts. Guys like Diggs and Slay aren’t close (in part bc of Slay’s age). Ramsey is fantastic but I think a lot of his greatness is in the lore that follows him. 
 

Horn looks like a strong safety out there but is playing corner.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
