Cat I know its one of his specialties but I just really dont want him to be used in the return game because of his ACL and because Page and Judie are great returners as well.
LOL @ Scalp! So true. We are going to see the best of everyone this year.
AB I understand… just watching videos of the kid gives me goosebumps so I want to see him do it this season! Not that Page and Judie can’t help him out
No prob cat! lol.
Which has me thinking 1500 yards 14 tds for DMT!! lol cant wait, nice chatting with you all im out. Try to enjoy your monday!
Dont get me wrong I want to see Bolden returning just not this year. He is an amazing returner.
I really think he wouldve been a late 1st early 2nd had he not got hurt this past year. I really love that we got him when we did.
Tuesday…. damn night shift I hate it lol peace out
AB he is the biggest steal of the draft IMO
ab & cat: Who do think will be on the bubble with the DB’s in camp this season… Syd’Quan Thompson?
I like Syd but that’s who I’m thinkin’ rbf1
Scalp – I am pumped up about Nash! But I’m WAY more pumped up about training camp opening!
Cat – I agree, where there’s a will, there’s a way.. Maybe I’m just venting from the recent events..
Guys I’m most excited to see in camp:
Wolfe
Hillman
Siliga
Trevathan
Bolden
Judie
Dell
Robinson
Jackson
Cat I agree that Bolden was the steal.
I think that we may end up with 7 CBs on roster. Florence Bailey Porter Harris Bolden Squid with Judie being a returner.
I guess I should also include:
Fannin
Irving
JuliusT
Blake
Page
Yeah cat, not sure if Syd is fully recovered. Should be very competative.
Not sure how many DB’s are carried each season… believe it’s either 4 or 5, depending if one makes Team for ST. Another one on PS. Here’s who I see listed on depth chart for DB.
Champ Bailey
Tracy Porter
Drayton Florence
Chris Harris
Omar Bolden
Syd’Quan Thompson
Tony Carter
Ramzee Robinson
Rafael Bush
I missed Judie.. thx OT.
KK: I’m with you. I think trevathon will pick up a starting position this year and will be a instant impact on defense.
I will be watching training camp close to see who will emerge at running back. I believe they will be using Gronkowski for run blocking but will introduce him into passing as well.
Fannin i believe will also be surprising at training camp.
No prob rbf1. Of course I’m excited for all our players, and FA will always be part of the equation, but we need to start a culture of home grown players IMO, and I can’t wait to see what our younger, less known guys can do!
Bronc on y’all, catch ya later
New blog.
