1) I want to see a healthy game, no injuries for the love of god

2) Young- how does he look completing passes against an NFL D-line and his situational awareness in the pocket

3) Mingo- is there a "connection" from day 1 between he and Young

4) O-line- we are missing key starters for the beginning of the season, how does our second team look

5) 3-4 defense, we have a lot of returning starters in a new scheme, how will they look in a 3-4

2 Main things for me.

Interior offensive line- Corbett is out, can whoever replace him keep Bryce safe?

Depth at linebacker.-I'm excited for the bunch we have this year but Burns doesnt have his extension yet, Deion Jones and Justin Houston signed 1 year deals , Luvu also is in his last year on his contract and Shaq's dead money becomes manageable next year. It could go from a strength to a weakness shortly if we don't address.

1. YGM/DJ Johnson/Barno at edge. Want to see a flash. 
 

2. Corral; can he be the cheap backup on his rookie deal, or build value as a trade piece. 
 

3. Mingo/TMJ/Shenault. Just excited to see them play. Want TMJ to take that step. Want to see Shenault in the backfield. 
 

4. The whole TE room. Want to see their strengths match what they are asked to do. That hasn’t been the case the past few years. 
 

5. McCall. That is all. Roster moves indicate he has the staffs confidence. I’m excited to see him at 3-4 nose.

I only want to see one thing (aside from everyone coming out healthy)....

Gelling. Cohesion. I want to see some semblance of every aspect of this team all being on the same page.

OL, QB/receivers, QB/OL, front 7, secondary, defense as a whole, special teams.

I don't care if mistakes are made as long as I see each unit fitting together or at least trending that way.

I second this.

I want to see how our backup CB's perform. Honestly, with Horn and Jackson both coming off injuries, there is no reason why either should get more than 1 set of downs, if that. I wonder if Henderson can be coached up to play good enough, and I want Taylor to finally take a step up to be consistent depth. 

Also want to see the 3-4 D since I'm not as up on that system as I want to be.

Bryce mudderfuggin Young!!!!!

edit: Excited to see Hubbard playing RB1, and how much size he's gained.

Interior offensive line play is what I'm watching the most b/c that IMO is the biggest concern heading into the season.

Secondarily, I'm interested in how our edge rushing and secondary depth looks.

Obviously want to watch Bryce, but I'm not going to freak out one way or another based on what will probably be a small sample size on Saturday.

I really wanna see how the defense lines up although since it is preseason I'm not sure if we will even see anything like what we'll see in the regular season.

Really curious where and how they use Chinn.

Wanna see if Corral is worth a bag of nickels.

I'm still nervous about depth at RB and wanna see what the backup look like.

And I guess Bryce.

It’s quite possible Henderson just doesn’t have it, but to be fair, he’s had the shittiest luck so far regarding coaching staffs. 
 

You never know. 
 

Here’s to finding out this season. 
 

(And that applies to all the young guys in particular)

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
