Not sure where to put this so I will put it here. If it needs to be moved please do so.

Man, as was said, GAIII = scare ya speed. Theo looks like a force. Eifert Looked good. Dbacks looked ok. Receivers looked uninspired...every one of them look passive....

eh if the ball drops on me...I'll catch it.

We ARE NOT going to approach replacing Floyd's productivity with guys running really good routes and hoping the ball arives in stride...They better get serious, get aggressive, and treat every ball like it'll explode if it hits the turf...the ONLY guy I saw treat it like that was Jamoris...a D-back. I hope they are just starting slow...but that did not look good to me.

I think that is why BK has and will be mentioning and allowing the freshmen WRs to get work with the 1s and 2s. Hopefully seeing the young kids breathing down their neck will light a fire (that should already be burning IMO) under the upperclassmen WRs.

Cant' disagree with you at all. Tj missed three. Somebody has got to go get it it, one of our receivers would be a good choice I think.

I don't think the WRs looked that bad i just think the DBs were playing very aggressive.... What scares is how many drops we've seen out of Goodman and Jones so far.... Everyone else running routes and catching balls looks good...

I would not be surprised to see Daniels jump Goodman and Ferguson push Jones....

I don't blame BK...hope it works

On the positive side, I think Toma catches anything near him. I hope we see more of Neal. Or at least the blur of him as he flies by.

Starting to get a little worried about what the deal with Cierre is. Seems like "paperwork" would be a quick fix....

No media access today... Those were likely shots from the last few days so no way to know if Cierre was playing today or not.

just appears as though a couple of the older guys do not expect the ball, or that they don't know how to finish. What do I mean? ...you need to expect at this level every single ball will be at you, and contested, so finish the route, know where you have pressure, get your body in position to wall off the DBACK, close, and catch the ball if it does come at ya...I don't know what else you can say but FINISH!!

In their defense...maybe it was an unfortunate set of highlights and they both finished well on numerous routes...but what I saw looked like uninspired, passive...whatever.

If our receivers are waiting to be "open" to feel responsible for balls on the turf...or in a dback's hands, some of them might be sipping gatorade waiting.

Good stuff... Hopefully they edited the reel to strike fear in opposing WR heads....

Wasn't that him in the third to last play?

No, I guess that was Theo.

But did you notice TN catching the ball?

He was there Sat. and yesterday... In one of the videos he did have Jersey and Helmet on but was not involved in drills....

Simply amazing....

Simply amazing....

I dont know if this will ever see the field this year because of seniors that in alot of ways wont deserve the playing time. But please day dream of this lineup.

QB- Golson
HB- Carlise/GAIII
WRs- Daniels and Ferguson
SLOT- Neal and Brown

Some plays Sub out Brown and have both RB's in backfield. -Motion out Carlise to slot

He was helping coach the guys through drills. If it was something serious then I don't think he would be at practice.

Cierre and Theo are a better tandem at this point and I don't think we can really debate that right now. I would also want TJ in over Ferguson at this point.

Interesting that Rees didn't have a highlight in that report...

In those few clips, TJ Jones looked really bad.

The player high stepping at the end of the video would have been called for a penalty and the ball dead at the spot of the foul. No touchdown.

Absolutely those werent the seniors I was referring to. i meant Goodman and Jones... They just dont impress me at all. I would also include Toma but he has great hands and works his butt off. I think he is the Rees of this year. Is good and tries but ulimately blocks younger superior athletes from reaching the field.

Absolutely. The time for that group will come, but that isn't the most talented group you can put on the field yet. It has nothing to do with seniority - Theo, Cierre and TJ deserve to be on the field based on merit. That those other guys are waiting in the wings is worth smiling about, though.

The majority of those clips looked like they were from yesterday's 11 on 11 portion of practice. I doubt TR is getting many of those reps not playing game 1. Kelly has to either solidify his initial thoughts on the qb or allow one of the two to separate from the other. The 11 on 11 reps would primarily be going to Golson and Hendrix.

The first point is also why there would be no Cierre clips if I had to guess. Just because we didn't see him in a whopping 20+ clips from the "opening days of camp" (which we know Cierre didn't participate in the first two), as Ryan Camden stated, doesn't mean he didn't practice today OR has a larger underlying issue. Not saying there isn't on either just my opinion.

fact is right now in the receiving core outside of eifert we don't have a perimeter threat that can flat out go get the ball like we've had the past few years...idk if we have one at Wr that can do that with perhaps one of the freshmen being the exception down the road. we've been extremely spoiled by tate and floyd, but then again i think we all knew that.
