I’m curious why he isn’t being talked about in the first tier.   

1) Not on a Power 5 conference team (Sunbelt conference)

2) Team is not ranked (would have been had they not lost Saturday)

3) Doesn't have a rocket for an arm (but he can make every throw)

4) Small school that doesn't have a long, storied history in FBS football and thus greatly lacks national TV time.  Heck until they upset BYU I don't anyone outside of the Carolinas had even heard of Coastal Carolina.

I'm cool with it.  I DO NOT WANT the #1 overall pick.  Young will stay hurt and Stroud I'm not sold on...yet.  We need more picks; a trade back is necessary.

This is exactly the scouting report on Tom Brady coming out of college.  Definitely not saying he is Tom Brady but watching C.J. Today, I would rather trade down, get more picks and get McCall.

What? Tom Brady played for Michigan. Literally none of these apply to him.

Not true, and I wasn’t just talking about the post I quoted.  What you hear about McCall is good arm not great, not the most athletic and not the fastest but can escape pressure when he needs to.  Who does that sound like coming out of college?  The small school is true but Brady’s first year as a starter Michigan was ranked 12th, last year, CCU was ranked 11th.  I also disagree that no one outside of the Carolinas have heard of CCU given Josh Norman, Mike Tolbert, Dustin Johnson, MLB players and their college World Series win.  In other words, he should be getting a lot more national coverage than he is, kid is just a winner, 23-4 or something like that!  Agreed it’s not SEC competition but stil

Trying to find the next Tom Brady is a dangerous game. Brady is just mentally on another level. The closest thing I’ve seen so far is Joe Burrow, but there is still obviously a big gap.

Back here to bang the table for Bryce Young…the best player in college regardless of position.  Pass on him and lose.  Love this player in every way.  I don’t care about the questions with size at all

Cam Newton was robo QB and injuries derailed his career.  You can’t second guess on injuries.  Lets go get this man

This prediction could go totally side wise with injuries but whatever

I'm coming to the same conclusion. At some point the talent is just too good to let a few inches/pounds get in the way.

      TMac to finish up Feels good after pads came on. Physicality is a little different, playstyle is a little different. Refs let the players play, so he has to earn his stripes to get calls and just has to be better playing through contact. Focusing on staying confident and listening to coaches. Not much has changed for him, still trying to be his authentic self. Was asked about boxing practice he was seen doing. He's done that since he was a kid because his dad was a boxer and taught his siblings. Was the youngest and got beat up the most, but now he's the fourth of sixth children. Boxing helps with his cardio and being reactive with his hands to the ball + DB. Admits to struggling the first couple of days, hats off to the DB corps for making him better every single day but had his best day on Wednesday. Even the best get got. Just have to remain confident in preparation and abilities. Confidence will take you only so far, and that's where his resilience plays a factor. XL is authentic and great to have in the room. Can rely on him to be the same guy every day. They make each other better. Everybody feeds off of each other and when one person wins they all win. Happy to be a part of the receiver room. Was asked about how he was laughing harder than everybody else at XL getting his feet in the water off the back of the boat: "Man he needs to be stopped bro... He can't be serious but he was serious. It's all good." Playing against the increased amount of press he's facing in practice is helping him get more physical. His job is to catch the ball, so if it touches his hand he has to come down with it. Only catches with one hand if he needs to, but that gives the QB a bigger catch radius. Had a pregame routine where he did a 360 one-handed catch, but doesn't do it anymore. Working on being a pro: Getting into the facility early and getting treatment, eating better, etc. Just wants to win re: rookie goals. Anything he can do to help the team win. "I'm looking for to the season man and keep pounding."

      DJ Wonnum up next Felt the defense came out ready to work at all levels and took over practice. New standard around here. Young guys have to know they're coming in to work. Last year was not the standard. Nic and Princely are fun. Different personalities but loves what they bring to the room. Sky is the limit for them. Nic sits next to Wonnum, Princeley sits next to Jones II. Allows them to be better mentors. Feels great and ready to go Incoom's athleticism allows him to bend and get low even to compensate for not being the biggest guy. Can set the edge. EDGE guys are helped when the ILBs can get home because it allows them to be a little more free while still in scheme. DB being back means his dominance is back. Can set the edge from the 3 or wherever he's at to make the runs bounce to the EDGE guys. Winning mentality and standard this year. Championship level from practice to how you live off of the field. Accept greatness and excellence with guys wanting to come to work every day. Not settling for anything less. Been in guys' shoes that are fighting for roster spots so he knows how to address them. Remembers not knowing what's next, especially as a rookie. Have a clear mind and ask the older guys a lot of questions. Has a good relationship already with Pat Jones II due to knowing each other and talking football all of the time. Can make hand gestures and know immediately what to adjust. Taking care of his body and excited to start the season. Getting it acclimated to football again by being able to tackle and bring players to the ground. Didn't know they were playing live tomorrow. Don't tell me it'll be "thud." Browns next week will allow them to hit somebody else and get a feel of what a different team is doing. Also allows the team to see where they're at on offense and defense. Ready to play football. Not worried about the QB matchup for Cleveland, going to play hard regardless of who is back there.
