He just tossed Bauer like it was easy. Kelly said he’s already more physical than Okwara was at the same stage.

Kelly pretty much predicted Ovie would replace Okawara next year.

This is incredibly good news. In addition to being a huge piece of next year's team, he should be able to play meaningful minutes this season to keep our DEs fresh.

What was most impressive to me, was that he did not really rely on power/strength to do what he did. His quickness, angle, movement, etc were amazing.

I think that's Zeke Correll, not Bauer though.

That's Bauer.

then a little less impressive than i had originally thought lol....
that little flash of gut made me think it was Correll given how lean I though Bauer was.
is that 20 Crawford them? I thought it was CBo, and I thought 32 was Assaf?

For sake of narrative I'm gonna say the order of blockers was Bo, C'Bo and Lil Bo.

Or Bo, CBo, and DBo...

I just rewatched and paused a few times. I'm back to thinking it was Correll, CBo, and Assaf.
52 doens't look lean/chiseled enough to be Bauer (unless he's picked up baby fat which is not what I'd expect during spring workouts). 52 has to be Assaf.

Not sure why they'd have Bauer, a LB as the first level blocker for that drill with two other O players at the second and third level. First level and baby fat not computing for me.

Thanks LL

On a level drill, why in the hell don't they have OLs on the 1st level. If you're not going use an actual OL, use another DL lol.

Oh well, still impressive, but not as impressed. Quick as hell.

I was thinking this play was staged for the purpose of twitter posting. I saw another one (cant remember who) that looked equally as impressive edited with slow motions and the like. Maybe it was JOK.

Its a ST’s drill which is why Polian was coaching it. Probably trying to find guys for different roles for ST’s.

Another guy that you would think would be competing for a much larger role next year...

What the what????

This is not good. He played pretty well this year. I figured he would be getting more playing time. And sucks for depth!!

Yea disappointing indeed. He’s all but guaranteed a spot in the two deep at a position where those guys play a couple hundred snaps minimum.

And here I was thinking the staff was going to be getting the roster old for next year. I’d be interested to hear from someone in the know if this is by design or not.

Is there something larger going on here? This is getting to be an absurd amount of transfers.

With the early signing period, recruiting is less exciting. The transfer portal is the new signing day. Should be exciting.
