Reich stated to reporters and I'm paraphrasing:  'he's going to catch on to a team that utilizes a true NT.'  That tells me the team is comfortable without a wide-bodied NT.

Personally, I don't understand it. 

He doesn’t fit our scheme and he’s not a very good player he was undrafted for a reason

I know he was undrafted, but so is the dude that's supposedly taking his spot.  I hope our 'scheme' isn't to give up chunks of yards up the gut all season.

Good insight from Dunc. Didn’t recognize that he didn’t even start on Friday, so something clearly shifted. 
 

Granted, we’ve been told a million times not to put stock into that first “unofficial” depth chart because it wasn’t put together by the staff, so being surprised we cut a “starter” may be short sighted.

It seems odd that we may not end up 'needing' a traditional NT, but they sure did give it a look, didn't they?  Adjusting the scheme to the personnel at this point, I bet.  Was it we didn't need a hoss at NT all along or we couldn't find one worth keeping and are scheming accordingly?

I think it was the later.

I didn’t hear him say that. What he said was that it came down to fit and there were 2 guys on the roster who have played better than him and jumped him on the depth chart.

Wasn’t it stated that the defense wasn’t even playing most of Evero’s scheme and like the offense keeping things “vanilla”? 
 

preseason, new staff and player evaluation.

Looking at what has been shown/seen, this is the exact definition of having faith. 
 

Tho I know a lot of people don’t understand what’s happening this off-season so far. 
 

Im just hoping there is a lot us fans just don’t have insight into at this time.

      2026 NFL Combine Thread: 2.26.26 - 3.1.26

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Ok--I have seen some sample items, and I would like to see something (if possible) measures on field intelligence--maybe how quickly you can grasp a playbook or absorb film session adjustments...Back when we had Morrison as team president and Hurney as GM, I offered to assess (as part of my research in education requirement at a University) emotional intelligence and learning styles of players to help coaches teach more effectively.  Morrison loved it and contacted me about it.  Hurney was not interested, and it fell through the cracks.  My pitch?  If only 50% of first-rounders become successful NFL players and that number drops significantly, can you tell me that you are effectively measuring talent?  Morrison thought it was a good point and wanted to do something that might improve long-term success rates--that would impact the cap management, etc.  Marty, according to Morrison, said he was not interested at this time and if so, he would want a football guy to do it.  (I told Morrison that I played in college and Hurney, a sports reporter at one time, did not. (He told me that Hurney played as a Guard in college--who knew?) Any way, about that time, Morrison left (2017) and the idea was dropped.  I reached back out a year later or so to Marty was still not interested.  A few days later, his wife accused him of assault or something, so I dropped it.

      Pretty sure they still do the Wonderlic they just don't publicly release the scores.

      I just thought he was under the radar--but thanks for opening our eyes to him.  I think we should have better measures for intelligence--such as reaction time, angles, etc. Legette is raw as heck, for example, and his RAS was very high.  We used to do the Wonderlic (which was not great) but to know how effectively a player makes on field decisions would be great.
