They definitely aren't realists, that much is for certain.

Which came first: the Matthews or the Plummer?

Became a fan of his when he was on Raw Room. He was so personable and funny as Hell. One of my favorite clips from the show came from his episode.

Joined!

They have a coach for the tackles, coach for the guards, and coach for the centers.

I cannot friggin WAIT to hear him call the play just before it happens like Romo and Olsen do.

So because they didn't pick players based off of the order that you preferred they didn't do anything?

This team seems so much closer than they have been in years.

JMatt was with the team last season and was credited with his veteran presence then. At this point the folks that hate Bryce are twisting themselves into knots to keep being miserable and it's super goofy. Thankfully, we still have a couple of mods that aren't encouraging a toxic environment.

Wait, Jordan Matthews is speaking to the press. I can't find the video on Twitter nor YouTube tho. Beat reporters catching the responses tho.

From yesterday's practice

Looks like they're all done for the day. Was just Evero at the podium.

Ope, looks like they're still with Evero Giving the younger guys that they don't have much exposure to something to do. Also looking to limit injury to starters. (re: Preseason) All great guys that are team guys re: coaches. Every one of the coaches pours into the players. All of the position coaches have a chance to be a coordinator soon. Can think outside of their position and think globally. Will be able to collaborate with Nate Hackett due to their relationship when the Jets come to town (feed cut mid-reply).

Ejiro Evero at the podium to start Welcomes the press to start, shouts out the fans and field maintenance folks. Defense has done a great job despite losing starters from last year. Jordan Fuller, Josey Jewell, Nick Scott, and A'Shawn Robinson though are familiar with the system so they feel like they haven't missed a beat. Attributes to the coaching staff how guys are on the same page still coming back so that they don't have to start over but can pick up where they left off at. Feels really good about the pass rushers. Clowney's resume speaks for itself. Inexperienced, but a lot of talent that is working hard to improve in the room. Have seen a lot of growth from where they were at the start of the spring and how they performed against the Pats. Shouted out Leota, Johnson, and Vilain. Will continue to work with Wonnum and Barno when they're ready and excited to get them back. Calls the safeties a starting three because Nick Scott is an NFL starting caliber safety. All three guys are sharp, understand the system, are great communicators, and know how they want to play in the deep part of the field. Makes the rest of the guys calm due to their level of communication. Dane Jackson's play has confirmed his film. Competitive, tough, physical corner. Really appreciates the way he's been working since he got here. Got to be able to stop the run because when teams can run they can dictate play action passing which is so much harder to defend. Shouted out the DL group across the board for their growth. Good relationship with Canales that has evolved to becoming friends, Thinks he does a good job connecting with everybody: players, staff, folks in the building. Always has a plan but is always willing to listen and consider other options. Thinks the product will show for it. Got a lot of credit from Canales re: defense vs TB but Evero said gotta give Canales credit because they were hard to play against due to all of the different things they do offensively (formations, motion, and player deployment). Shaq looks good, picked up where he left off. Don't have to worry about him. Went with the plan the head coach wanted re: starters sitting. Coaches are invested and pouring into players who are playing faster. Communication and anticipation are all speeding up. "If it's questionable, it's a pick!" joking in response to Person (feed has messed up a good bit, didn't catch the question nor some of the stuff he said about Shaq). Really likes what he is seeing from Dane Jackson but does not want to make any declaration for who will hold down CB2. Likes what he sees from Jamison and Bootle as well. Has to see how it plays out. CB is the hardest position on Evero's defense to replace from the mental standpoint. NFL offenses aren't stagnant like they used to be, they're moving all over the place. From a mental standpoint, CBs have to be on point to play against the run and the pass. Looks like they had technical difficulties at the end and in the middle.

Yes, center was a need. I'm not disputing that. What I'm disputing is that the team didn't do anything. You're saying Raym is camp fodder as the 12th-ranked center, then what about McMahon who was ranked 11th but drafted at #190? Is he just camp fodder? BC and Cade Mays can both play center. Mays played center in college. The team felt confident with those options and still brought in Raym. Personally, I would have preferred them to bring in one of the top 5 guys but XL, Brooks, Wallace, and Sanders instead I'm okay with taking instead. Brooks is going to be the only RB under contract next season, Sanders was a steal at #101, XL clearly fits the mold of WR that Canales thinks that the team needs, and Wallace is being prepped to take over for Shaq. The moves make sense, regardless of whether or not it was my preference.
