“We’re ramping them up, they’re all in the final stages of the evaluation process,” Canales replied. “Some last couple of hurdles for them to clear before we feel like we can put them out there in practice. But they’re all really close.

“Jonathon [Brooks], D.J. Wonnum, Dane Jackson, [Amaré] Barno, all those guys. They’re trending in the right direction. Jaden Crumedy as well. So the guys are there looking really strong. Again, they’re kinda in those final stages. I kinda just wanna leave it at that. But we’re getting close to being able to open the window for those guys.”

Looks like it's only a matter of time.  Could be looking at weeks 5-6 for some of these guys.  

Wonnum and Barno are welcomed boosts to the pass rush.  Would still love to see if Barno can develop into something.  

With Brooks, I think we're all excited about getting the first RB selected in the draft on the field.  

Happy Thursday.

I've given up on Barno being anything. He's been on IR his entire time here. I'm not sure why he is even still here.

He got dinged up last year and then this year but it hasn’t been that much lost time. I’m still a bit hopeful (for a tad longer). He’s still here for a reason I suppose

He has gone on IR every year he's been here. I don't think he's played a full season yet.

He’s a special teams monster.  If not for Sam Franklin, he’d be the best special teamer on the squad.

But that doesn't help the pass rush. He's not someone you count on to be available for a full season. I just don't get the hype on this guy. If y'all hadn't mentioned his name you would not know he's still on the team.

Well hot diggity damn

Anyhoo, elsewhere, I wonder if this Crumedy will be effective or anything. Haven’t been hitting late rounders so would welcome some sort of interest there.

Agreed.  Not championing the kid just answering why he’s on the team.

Barno's perceived impact aside, I am excited for the other guys listed to be involved. Wonnum was productive and due to break out, but just tore his hamstring off the bone. Brooks could be our new franchise back and contrary to popular belief, game changing running backs are still very important. As always Franklin's impact on STs is always a big deal.

      Dave in a presser gassed up Anthony Tyus III and dying to see him on the field.  I mean 3 is all that needed right, and Dan loves etienne. He's one year filling in his body. If brooks is back, toss in chubba, thats 3.

      After seeing hits in the last two UDFA pools, I do not in this group sorta of a let down after I gassed myself up.  Not like I know of their games, but just expected more. The duke DT only has to beat out hunte (2025 UDFA) or Ray (DL coach's kid) or even Cam Jackson mid 2025 5th.  I thought they would bring in more edges, IOL, TEs, etc...

      The Icky knee didn't explode draft

      By MHS831 · Posted

      My 2 favorite picks, since you didn't ask? 3. Brazzell II.  A 1000 yard WR with 4.37 speed and checks all the boxes for a Z Wide Receiver.  IN THE THIRD ROUND!!! 5.  Sam Hecht.  I think he will take over as the starter at some point this season and never look back.  IN THE FIFTH ROUND. Runner Up:  2. Hunter:  We were targeting a DT early in this draft because we did very little to replace Robinson in free agency.  Hunter was our guy and he will start. In addition to that, you got a starting tackle that should man one side of the new OL we will build for Bryce's second contract. A starting WR, offensive lineman, defensive lineman and possible Offensive tackle (at some point during this year from this draft will start.  UNREAL. In addition, I don't doubt that Wheatley (5th round) takes the FS job by next year and Lee III is Jackson's replacement in 2027.   Finally, even Kuwatch should be a special teams demon and LB depth.   Last year's draft was so good it was ugly.  This one will turn out to be uglier.  No offense Basbear--this ain't about you.
