Penning

Apparently Northern Iowa's pro day was yesterday. I haven't seen anything confirming whether or not we had Campen or anyone else there for it. Maybe we did but if so I haven't seen a report.

Nagy is predicting that Penning will go in the top ten. He's right that the body control Penning shows for someone that large is pretty impressive.

I don't know much that translates to being an offensive lineman, but that move is incredibly difficult. Leg straight, and arms straight out instead of the much easier T-shape? He did it with such ease that he's either already a practicing yogi, or he's got body control the likes of which I've not seen.

Balance and body control, which is definitely impressive for a guy that large.

It primarily means that he'll have a good solid base while he's punching you in the head 😕

Isn't this the guy that was bullying the defensive linemen at the senior bowl? The one with the mean streak and talked smack to back it up? If so, he better be on your radar! This guy was mean out there. 

That's him.

Word was he started some fights.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
