Interesting roster moves today. Booch you still got time to be right about Fletcher. I get the feeling they want to give reps to both Smith and Shay situationally.

Once they figure out how to, and to actually, use MCI he will be an X factor. I'm thinking there is no realistic way we use Shay at SAM. My thinking is that Younger didn't want to show too much but they wanted to see if and where Shay could go as a 4th Lber in a 3-4 defence. They blitzed him, they used him in coverage out of the SAM. My thinking tho, is that IF Shay goes in on a 3-4 it would be because he brings some versatility.

I'm invested in good OL play. Nothing more. Eli missed two blocking assignments during the game. Are you suggesting that was a figment of my imagination? C'mon man. I want Eli to do well, he needs to sharpen his pencil and that has nothing to do with anything I've said about him in the past. The proof is in the pudding. I absolutely believe Eli is good enough, what I'm seeing is not a lack of natural ability but brain cramps that need to be rectified. Perkins, does have a better command of the offence but yea...not the strongest passer out there. I have no doubt that Elgersma is the better QB in time, but right now not so much. That could change quickly given TE's natural abilities. Just needs to get used to things. Didn't love the run blocking by the 2nd group OL. That will need to be a lot better. That's a part of the game that really shouldn't require a lot of time or chemistry to be high level if you have high level run blockers.

I am guessing that it's Tui's job, he's gonna have to sharpen his pencil is all. I think he's going to have to show a lot more in game 2 because right now Perkins has a better command of the offence. I thought he showed good hustle and movement to the ball. He didn't show up on the stat sheet, but he flowed to the play nicely.

Tui didn't play much but he was not good...worse than Kola bad...still early tho. It was mental mistakes and that probably from being less than 2 weeks on the job. Hes gotta get better before the season tho

I agree. I'd love to hear the Xs and Os too, but I completely agree that a bunch of fans with a limited knowledge of them would start spewing hate if he shared.

Elgersma needs a lot of seasoning, and i believe he will work hard. Realistically, he should be 3rd string. He may throw great in practice but the game is moving too fast for him right now. Loved Smith/Shay/Singer Very worried about Tui. He needs to be a lot better.

When a player walks you suspend him. Nothing more to it than that. You dont just let guys walk out of contracts or you would see guys just walking all over the league whenever the wind changes. If you want out you do it the right way and request your release while working your ass off. You take your ball and go home, you dont get to be a free agents. Elgersma is better at pitch and catch than Collaros. Good to know.

On FB, what appears to be Wilson's wife is commenting that TE was handed the 2QB role without competition.

Condell demands a lot out of his QBs, and maybe Thorne and Wilson just weren't getting the new system.

I'd say that Wilson was behind Perkins for 3rd string as well

Writing on the wall is what's happening. Thorne was very clearly likely to be cut and Wilson knew he was likely 4th string with not much chance of moving up.

Honestly that is fantastic news. If he has that kind of mentality then buh-bye. Always thought he would never develop.

Anyone hear why T Wilson is on the suspended list?

I agree we've gone a little too far in using glue guy to keep some ppl. Just responding that you can't be entirely void of them either
