Tuesday's practice was part of a voluntary minicamp. A few players were missing, including new tight end Hayden Hurst (again, it's voluntary) and Burns (who had ankle surgery last week).

Not a good way to make an impression on the new team, Hurst. Cut him and draft his replacement!

 

Is that the proper overreaction to that news?🤔

No matter the post or reply we can't get anyone off the QB debate threads. At least this is an Alt free zone lol.

The QB debate will rage until next draft. These guys aren't going to let it go once the season starts just because they want to be able to say I told you so to those in the opposite camp.

He hates football. Is he holding out for more money??? Check Reddit.

I'm a little concerned that he lives in Jacksonville Florida by choice, but TE's are a rare breed and it helps if they're a little bit off. We've been way too soft at the position as of late

He seems more gadget-y to me.  Want someone with more shiftiness and speed than LS, although he did grade out very well; he was in slot 51.5% of his snaps which accounted for 50 snaps in the slot the entire year.  

For comparison, Shi Smith was played in the slot for 266 passing snaps which accounted for 78.7% of his snaps.  That accounted for 38 targets with only 22 receptions.  We could really use a slot upgrade.  Smith was graded 110th out of 113 eligible receivers.

He can return kicks and block very well so I wouldn't be surprised if he makes the team. Thomas Brown was a returner so I know he's not gonna easily accept having Shi or Chuba back there

Thielen is definitely starting in the slot

Was that his fault?

Unsure.  Shi's usage didn't really change after we landed Shenault.  Once here, we brought Laviska in on very specific playcalls so he just seemed to be used in a more creative fashion.  That was with Rhule and then a dismantled hodge-podge staff so we'll see. 

Even in JAX, his slot play was still in the 57% range of his passing snaps.  Only 27% his rookie year.

It will be interesting how the new staff evaluates him and if they think they can get more usage for him.  Looking forward to that with a lot of players.

      Bryce Young Is a Symptom, Not the Disease

      By strato · Posted

      He has made some good throws yes. His arm isn’t great by any professional measure though It might be decent enough, but the poor footwork inhibits it.  So he has to really focus on that and from what I’ve seen he is not consistent.    peace.

      Bryce laughing (from game day thread)

      By Icege · Posted

      If only Bryce were 8'1" then CJ wouldn't have needed Woody Marks to carry him against the Titans nor the defense to carry him with 3 picks vs. Cooper Rush. If he were a real QB, he'd have thrown for over 250yds and the Texans wouldn't be 2-3. /s See? I can do the same dumb, lame poo that y'all do. Doesn't this make the board a better experience overall? 🙂

      Chances against the Cowboys

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      Their defense is on track to be worse than ours last year. Their run D is in the bottom half but their pass D is horrible.    32nd overall D, 32nd passD, 23rd rush D We are going to have to throw the ball against them, which means down field where they are vulnerable. Problem is Turnover Fred struggles to push the ball down the field and we have the 26th ranked pass offense. Running will help but will have to beat them through the air. On the flip side, Dallas’ offense is awesome.    1st overall, 3rd pass, 8th run.    But Evero’s defense is ranked 12th right now with the pass D around 10th and rush D around 14th.    If we can take care of the football (looking at Bryce) and we make plays down the field (also looking at Bryce) we can win, yes.
