I didn’t watch, how did JT Sanders look?

We're setting him up for some easy yards, but he's putting out good effort and doesn't look out of his depth.

Had a few more rookie speedbumps at times with blocking assignments, but he doesn't look terrible.  

Speaking of TEs - Ian Thomas, that dude, that dude can go.

What is Thomas good at again? I keep hearing blocking but then he misses them at critical times.

absolutely, but hes  running the reciever style TE, and he's improving.  I think his hands are improving, he needs to work on blocking, but for a rookie he's pretty darn good so far...better than weve seen from a rookie TE maybe ever.

I get the blocking issues it’s the cbs stopping these TEs in their stride one on one that infuriates me

I didn’t watch the whole game, but I feel Sanders fights for every yard. On one catch he had three guys on him and he still moved forward. I don’t see him as soft at all.

Agree with this, very promising, I think he has a chance to be really good. He’s only 21.

He needs to work on turning up field and going north/south when contact approaches. There were numerous receptions yesterday where he tried to avoid contact and ended up either going backwards or leaving some yards on the table because of it.

He is a rookie but better and more involved than any rookie TE I can ever really remember us having.

    • Honestly, I have only one pair of white shoes (only because they were new and like $4 from the Goodwill) other than my easily-cleaned Crocs. A man's got to think ahead.
    • Down to Carolina and Washington for Ehlers. 
    • Who are your top three breakout candidates for next season?    My three: Jatavion Sanders- Simply put he is the best receiving TE we have had since Olsen. We all saw his potential over that three game stretch prior to his neck injury where he showed a real connection with Bryce. Good route runner with glue for hands, limited blocking upside but he gives solid effort. With Tremble already being hurt I don’t see a reason why he already isn’t our starter and clear future at TE. Trevin Wallace- For a developmental LB forced into a starting role last year he  exceeded expectations. LB is one of the hardest positions to adjust to from college, and for a prospect who was widely regarded as very raw, surprisingly he was solid in coverage and only had an 11.9% missed tackle rate. He was overly aggressive consistently, and needs to work on his play recognition. But he is set up to be our best LB next season, and likely starter for years ahead. Even barring reaching his upside, his floor was clearly a lot higher than draft pundits assumed(Morgan can scout LBS). Cade Mayes- I am hopeful Cade wins the starting job at C this season. He may have been our most improved player last season, he looked like an above average starting C after he took over for an injured Corbett. He allowed 0 sacks on 327 pass block snaps. Corbett can not stay healthy, and at this stage in his career Mayes is objectively the better player. Mayes is only 26 and gives us the potential of stability at C, something we have never had since Ryan Kalil retired. Corbett slots in as a great backup C/Guard, and Cade continues to develop and gain more chemistry with Bryce and our stud duo of Hunt/Lewis.
