I hope the farce doesn't last long. We need to let Baker get all the 1st the reps ASAP

Of course, Jordan is our starting LG and Elf is our starting C---as of July 28 or so.

I think they are respecting the existing starters so that they give the appearance of competition.  I suppose that it is demoralizing to be a starter and have some free agent from another team come in and take your job without giving you the chance to fight to keep it.  Kind of a "king of the hill" thing--

By the first preseason game, our OL and QB should be set.

 

I sure hope you are right. If Elflein and Michael Jordan start it will be bad news.

I can’t understand why in the actual f*ck Matt Rhule is allowing Darnold to waste valuable reps with the 1’s. 

Baker needs all the reps he can get to build chemistry with this group. And spoiler alert (apparently) there is no QB competition so he’s literally just wasting reps

And to a lesser degree the same goes for PJ and Corral. Darnold and Corral should be splitting the leftover reps after Baker

Optimistic view: Yay good coverage without Horn! 

also optimistic view: this QB competition might be settled sooner rather than later. Sam is already in his own head. 

There is a tweet right after that one stating Baker was 1-3. So yay, better! I guess.

So much this. Baker should be getting 1st team reps and Corral should be getting 2nd's. Even if Corral doesn't play this year he needs the reps. We know, hell the whole league knows, what Darnold brings.

      XL makes a list of sophomore breakout candidates

      By panthers55 · Posted

      I already said things like speed and athleticism you either have it or don't. Like Tet's size and wingspeed. But a big knock on  Tet was that he didn't play as physically as you would expect given his size and strength. In fact he struggled against press coverage and couldn't get separation off the line or off the top of his break which is why he has so many contested catches to begin with. He was not great taking balls away like a Mike Evans was and would struggle against physical corners in the NFL. But he has what you can't coach. That is why we drafted him. What he lacks can be taught.  Legette has good size and speed. He actually could get separation but couldn't catch the ball using poor technique. Once again those skills can be taught. Both Legette and Tet have great physical skills and will complement each other. They are clearly different but I don't share your belief that their deficits can't be coached or remediated. One question with both of them will be their willingness to be physical in the run game and play with aggression.

      This might be my favorite quote from game 1.    "the Hurricanes seem to have it for stretches long enough that you could get up out of your seat, wait in line for popcorn, hit the restroom and get back to the stands — and not miss a Capitals appearance in the offensive zone."   Washington post

      Its not blind faith, we just aren't jaded and can see that he provides something needed that isn't on this team. Like it or not, he is our only deep threat, jump ball guy, Tmac isn't that yet. He is the fastest and biggest reciever we have.  He is really good at getting position on CBs and he also blocks downfield.  Tmac is going to take adams role and get the most targets, Coker will be third and we better hope Theilen is 4th or 5th.
