like i said elsewhere. I heard the same from Will Palaszczuk not long ago. I'm not saying it's true I'm saying it was interesting to hear.

I think the fact that they kept pairing him with Baker was the giveaway.

That's another element that is so fuging absurd about all these fake competitions. It's pretty obvious what the score is, so I have no idea what the benefit is of this charade.

From what I heard from the joint practice is that Boseman might not be any better than Elflein.

I know it won't happen but shouldn't Rhule and Co. start working with Mays at center.  Maybe start him with 2nd team reps and see if he can handle the position.   

Rhule has this thing about underclassmen, I mean rookies, starting especially if they are a low round pick.  

We drafted Mays partially because of his versatility to play anywhere on the line.   

If these two vets aren't the answer than maybe we should give the rookie a shot.

Thought? 

I'm not there yet as far as him being another Paradis. It takes time for a starting line to gel, especially when it's 4 guys are new to the team. Name the starters, let them play together and tell the other guys they have to take the position from them. This really isn't rocket science when it comes to an oline.

Are you suggesting most teams do start late-round rookies? 🤨

If BC beats him out, we have still made a huge improvement over trotting Erving out as LT1, because it means that BC has become a starting caliber LT.

Also, I doubt this is the case. Icky just needs to improve his pass protection a little. We can't write him off after 1 preseason game.

Good point.  What many seem to be missing is that with BC’s credible performance thus far at LT, we now have legitimate options at that position.  Not popular here at teh Huddle but, our best starting lineup this season may be BC at LT and Icky at LG.

For all the haters, flame away.  I am immune to your disdain.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
