SHOW ME THE LIGHT! How have Star and Short looked in Training Camp

[Sean Payton's Vicodin]

I've been out of town and have not been following TC, this is my biggest curiosity. Is there a general consensus on how they've looked in TC besides "wow their arms are big"

From what it appears, after reading numerous write ups about camp is that Short has been surprisingly good. Star seems a little out of shape, but is holding his own. The DT position is probably the hardest to evaluate in "semi-contact" drills.

It has been quoted numerous times that Short is very explosive and quick for his size. We will know more about star after the preseason game I am sure

When we drafted the two....KK always seemed like the one who could shine early. Star is a good all around DT but wasn't known for his pass rush. KK was arguably the best at that in the draft....and that pass rush gives him the ability to stand out better IMO. Doesn't mean he is better overall....Star just can do some non sexy stuff

Really hoping these two picks pan out, god knows we need them to. I'm worried though just because of the high bust rate at the DT position

I think, and maybe its been stated before, that K. Short is Kris Jenkins 2.0 without the over eating!!!!

Star will be a beast at the end of the day

[carolina-chuck]

Star will eat up Wilson, Manuel/Kolb, Eli, Palmer, Ponder, Bradford, Freeman 2x, Ryan 2x, Kaepernick, Brady, Tannehill, Brees 2x, and Sanchez/Geno

I'll be perfectly happy with Star if he has 0 tackles at the end of the year, but require 2 blockers on every play.

 

 

edit: Okay, maybe not 0 tackles, but you get my point.

Star: 30 tackles 5 sacks

I don't think Star has looked really bad, I just think that he hasn't had any real flashes like Short, and now Barner have had. I suspect with each padded practice you will hear more and more good things from Star.

Just having guys in the middle to hold their ground, eat up blocks, and not get pushed back will be a huge upgrade. Kuechly may have close to 200 tackles this year if Star and Short are as advertised

Reports have been that Star looks tired, out of shape, and Amini completely dominated him a few days ago at practice. 

 

 

 

Haven't heard all that much from Short besides a few tweets saying that he looks good and explosive.

I didnt hear that star was out of shape, just that he's adjusting to the speed. And I can't remember if it was sunday or saturday but zod tweeted that star actually got the better of Amini that day. I'm not sure that means much at this point but we'll see how star has adjusted come preseason.

Since Short is my N°1 rookie i am happy to read good things about him.

I am not worried with Star he will be ready in time.
