Breaking news.  Team with no LT finally announces the #6 overall pick and first lineman drafted is the LT. 

Would not even be news if we had a competent coaching staff. As is, was a question mark. Headline should have read:

Coaching staff finally does super obvious thing even armchair mouth breathers could get right.

In other news: the sky is blue, water is wet, women have secrets.

Feel like I’m the only person who doesn’t hate how this was handled. 99% of his reps were at LT all camp and he was named the starter before preseason week 2. I don’t think it was the worst thing in the world to not just give it to him right of the bat. Yeah we all knew he’d be the LT but doesn’t hurt to at least act like there is some sort of earning that had to be done for a rookie. 

 

Rhule has a lot of head scratchers but this seems pretty normal to me

Great news...now do QB next because it is even more obvious already.

Floundering head coach goes into preseason with 4 QB's on the roster and gives meaningful preseason reps to the only one that a brain dead lemur on crack can see won't be on the team come opening day.

No reporter asks meaningful questions about this.

I mean yeah, but at this point I'm just venting my ire at the man who killed my love of the team. 

Remember, keep your focus on what matters here:

Me.

But there is no earning. Rhule is incompetent and has not been able to put any worthy competition there. Announcing it now is better than holding off just for that point and basically give the youngsters the impression you’re an idiot, although I am sure Rhule will prove it to them eventually anyways.

      Not in same league. Caldwell just hit a 10.00 on the RAS. 2nd out of 3830 from 1987 onward.  https://x.com/MathBomb/status/2027885023387349047 Yeah I mean Louis had a sub 9.00 RAS. Still very very good, no doubt. Louis is small, no 2 ways about it. He is likely a sub package lb in nickel packages or specialized WLB. Be fine ST gunner to start for sure. 6 foot flat and 220lb is pushing it for a starting LB. At 10 to 20lbs less than the other LBs he'd better be closer to the top in most timed drills. He's gonna be challenged when some of the wrs in the class can matchup bigger stronger faster, much less TE in the run game.  Yeah instinct matter and he has them, but that size is a massive red flag compared to many of the other LBS in this class.    Rodriguez is the LB that really climbed this week from a pure grit guy to great flash with athleticism people wrote off cause he was a QB at first at UVA. 18.4mph in the backpedal. Production the last 2 years were great. I'd be thrilled with him as the future mike.   Hill likely moved out of 51 and into the top 45 picks ( Ravens at 45 I can't imagine don't bite if he makes it there). Honestly Hill imo is a 1st rounder and I'd be ok with him as he fits the MLB we have missed the last few years. People would crow it's a reach but he's top 30 all-time I'm RAS for a LB at 9.9+ . Plus he was big time in big games when he was healthy. And that br a big check: meds.

      Miller, Melo, Coby, Moose, and Bridges all on the floor at the same time must be a nightmare for defenses lol. Switch one out for Kon and still a nightmare. Coby really does bring a true 6th man value and looks like he could start if Melo was out after only a few games of getting his feet wet.
