Bryce has been dropping dimes right into the bread basket on the passes I saw. Minus the theilen clip that was posted here yesterday. He’s gotta get that ball up a bit to allow for YAC. That said I understand it’s just training camp and he’s a rook.

This has always been the case.

While I have much more confidence in our staff than in previous years, I still occasionally question moves they make. D. J. Johnson in the third? Okay, I'll reserve judgement. Keeping Henderson around is another. My conclusion is either they think they can get more out of him or there's literally no one better out there in the coaches' estimation.

I normally dog on this team a lot, it's well earned, but these moves don't bother me as much as some others.

DJ was selected because of a run, and a need....and his profile.  EE sees something there that gets him excited for his defense...who knows how it will turn out, but I really like seeing a DC be IN on a player, explaining that to both the coach, and the GM/scouts, and them agreeing with is idea and approach.  Again, could be a bad call, but I do like the conviction and communication.

As to CJ....he's an incredible athlete, is young, is fairly cheap, has been poorly coached, and both of our starters are coming off of injury, with one of those being an achilles.  I totally get the move, and yes, he's better than most anything out there currently.

It sounds like the defense is catching up to the offense in preparation and execution on the field.  Iron sharpens iron as they say. I can't wait to see what happens when the pads go on and the tempers flare. 

The conundrum of camp. Is this player/unit really good or does that other player/unit just suck?

    • OL then RB would make heads explode but its might not be too unlikely 
    • Wonder if we draft a RB. Seems like a lot of eggs in Brooks’ basket right now.  And the OL, no kidding. If that running game goes to hell with what we have at QB, you can forget competing. It is so much more important than sticking another wideout on the field. Take your wideout later. 
    • I have lots of different thoughts on it. This argument, the primary thing is I don’t like seeing him or anyone, being convicted on hearsay and/or pure speculation. Which some are doing.  I don’t care That much about defending Morgan as I do about the criticism being fair minded.    You sort of assert that Dan was just a yes man. I don’t think we know if he ever pushed back against Fitterer but I have this instinct thing that needs me to satisfy the question of: if Tepper was so down on a Fitterer as to fire him, why in the world would he hire his carbon copy? I guess maybe he wanted a yes man.Like I said, lots of different thoughts.     I am just not gonna judge him that harshly based only on speculation. I am sticking with what he has done starting when he was hired as GM. Maybe I am more lenient because the first season for him and Canales, I gave both a pass. Said I would judge them after the first year. Stuck to it. If you can get to the reality that neither were ready for the job and say okay give them a year get their feet wet, it looks a lot better.    And we are not bound to Bryce yet. Yes, for yet another fuging year he can probably marginally improve and slide by like he has been doing. But if they add even more people and he regresses? I think we could see some relief.    The QB room? As I understand it, Pickett was Canales’ choice. If we need to blame people for poo. In a sense, he is very Bryce like. So makes a good plug in. I get that a little bit. We still have the draft. If they do better than Jake Plummer or Hooker I’ll know they are trying.
