I know PR is mostly fair catches but with the young talent, hope someone takes that job from Fiason with how uncertain the WR group is.

Where did you get footage from a Rob Ianello cones drill?

PR group per On3:

Faison, Williams, Graham, Robinson, Frazier, Golden

Bubba all day please.

I hope they give it to Robinson or Frazier they are faster than anyone on the team and there’s no need to risk injuring Faison or Williams

I’d argue that short area quickness and vision are far more important than speed in a returner. What good is a lightning fast return guy if he can’t get past the first 10-20 yards of bodies all around him.

To your point however, neither Robinson or Frazier are just pure speed players, they do bring more to the table.

More important is that both are lighting quick which is a bit more valuable with PRs because the key is eluding that first wave.

Always like it when the returner has a RB mentality back there. Golden back there you could see his rb instincts take over

The PR is going to be who catches the punt best in the end. The return ability is a minor factor

Looks like Greathouse, Robinson, and Graham fielding kicks at the end of the video

I think Faison would be a Golden Tate like PR.

🤣🤣🤣🤣Let some ppl tell it

 

[Rocketman84]

I think Faison would be a Golden Tate like PR.

Based on what? He has returned plenty punts in his career, around 18-20.

 

[T-Boone]

The wr starters should practice against the DB back ups more so they can get confident.
Hopefully someone gets this post of mine to freeman.

Something that occurred to me today- I feel like we really haven't heard much about Will Black since fall camp started. I don't say this in a negative or worrying way, especially since there hasn't really been access to full contact, padded sessions, but I'm interested by what I interpret as almost a casual and quiet confidence in him to hit the ground running. Could anyone else with a closer ear to the ground provide further insight?

I like Sneed for the role he gives and the plays he can provide, but we’ve been writing Sneed this is the year articles for 3+ years

“This is Sneed’s year” is what the media writes about when there’s nothing to write about. Defense is a pretty known commodity.

Truly forgot about him and have heard 0 from reporters... so yeah

Anything on Farimo been kinda quiet there

From everything I've read and listened to, he more than holds his own. He certainly isn't currently Joe Alt though and will lose some from time to time. I dont think they would be moving forward with Knapp to OG if they weren't pretty confident.

Hes 5th of the five, wouldn't surprise me too see him take some of sneeds LB snaps later in the year. I expect he and KVA to start next to each other in 2027

If KVA has the year a healthy KVA should have, i can't imagine he's back. We'll see.

That’s what i’m thinking i think KVA comes back, I also believe Shuler, Gray will be back. I think Bowen could come back too

I don't disagree, but I do think they genuinely want to play next to each other. This is probably mostly wishful thinking on my end lol

I think we're looking at an entirely new defensive backfield next year, just my opinion.

 

[NDPhilly]

Honestly with 5 for 5 Bowen isnt a sure thing to go pro if he gets a round 4 to 6 grade.
