Tyrique Stevenson CB/NB is a no from me.

A consistent disappointment at Miami.

Curious more than anything since it looks like you’re a Miami fan but don’t like Stevenson (also same w/Mallory in the other thread).

Open to hearing what I’m getting wrong, not a wizard at this but have really liked what I’ve seen. TFG had a great bit on him that sold me.

I really don't see a TE this early.  Teams usually don't spend early picks on positions that they just addressed in Free agency.  Same could be said about WRs.  Although this a deep TE class so I wouldn't mind one later.

I'm thinking more of an edge or 3-4 DE, possibly a CB, decent draft for those.

I do wonder if the WR class is gonna have some serious variance with where they are projected to go, feels like there is a lot on a similar level projected to go 2-4 and I could see a lot of movement up and down in that group.

I see Mingo, Tillman, & Rice as big wildcards as they’re the best of the non-slot types. Iosivas as well. 

To that point—Mingo (who we’ve met with) is a guy I wonder why he’s not rated higher. I am always preferential to the dudes that are aggressive and go after the ball. He knows how to outmatch CBs physically and still has some decent speed for his size. Metcalf-lite

I agree with them, I do love Mingo he’s really intriguing. I also think Marvin Mims could go a lot higher than people are projecting.

Well I've watched them both for multiple years and don't want to watch them any more. 

Mallory is soft and wouldn't block his grandmother. He's a Flex TE, but don't expect him to make any contested catches.

Stevenson came into Coral Gables with a ton of hype after transferring from Georgia. He constantly looked like a S trying to play CB.

      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.
