Corral looks like he hasn't taken any practice reps all training camp.

Ickey apparently has looked shaky, which is incredibly concerning. I really like Ickey, but I wanted Cross because he was a better pass blocker right out the gate. He needs to pick things up quicker if we are going to be halfway decent.

Dang, don't read into the negative nancies here. 2nd string D dominated the pats starters for the first quarter and a half. Second strong O minus ickey and Brady also played decent against their ones. Couldn't finish the drives, but overall very optimistic in my mind.

Ickey allowed two sacks, looked good otherwise. I think Cross had 5 penalties last game so they are all learning at this point. I don’t remember the last first round LT that came in and played flawless from the start, so I’m not too concerned. But I’m optimistic by nature.

Every one of the QBs really likes throwing to Kirkwood I've noticed. Think he'll end up the 6th WR.

Locks: DJ, Robbie, TMJ, Shi

Higgins is likely making the roster. If we keep a 6th I agree Kirkwood is probably the guy although Zylstra has looked pretty solid lately too. Saunders was reportedly having a good camp but has been invisible lately. No one else stands out as having any chance of making the roster. Really happy for Kirkwood if he does make it, after the injury last year's training camp his odds of sticking around were looking slim.

Yep. Sewell looked shaky his first action. He came along quite well last year.

I really don't know what he was thinking with the should've been pick six throw. I couldn't even tell who he was trying to throw to. He hit the Pats DB in stride right on the hands. Looked like he was throwing to him.

Watch the replay it’s not a hard on to follow. His guy was there, the LB just dropped into coverage and Matt telegraphed it the entire way staring down first read. It’s not like he was throwing to air, just a really bad decision to not move off your first read (or most likely he never saw the LB drop and just missed the coverage)

      Monday practice tweets

      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.

      Austin named starting center

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      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.
