Got some good insight from someone close to the organization today

Great post, and it's cool to read stuff like that.  I do agree that we all pay too much attention to OTAs and are stressing too much right now.  But we're all huge fans, what else do we have to do this summer?  Canadian Football????

 

I do hope that our OTs shake out well, I'd love to see Bell become an average (or better) LT.  That would be super nice!

 

As Zod spoke about the open competition between WRs, I'm loving that as well.  I think we're not in as bad a shape as everyone thinks.  10-6 is completely reasonable and totally possible, if not better!

Got ya. Thought it might have been Gross.

My guess is Hangartner.

 

It might be Wharton too, but yeah.  If he worked at CPI in Charlotte it was obvious it was Gross.

I always enjoy reading tid bits like this, thanks for sharing, champ!

[bLACKpANTHER]

this has to be an offensive player/coach

 

he talks a lot about o-line and WRs and barely even touches on our LBs and secondary and he has to be someone associated with the team for awhile now talking about Hurney.

 

Maybe Olsen? or Proel?

Sounds like Mike Craft to me, unless he hasn't been around the team recently, recovering.

Praise to Bell likely mean it was one of his mentors. . . and why does it matter, lol. Fingers are crossed for our Oline this year, fug.

[rayzor]

he said it was a former player.

I know eyre not big names but we've got 2 very reliable threats in JC and Avant. Avant could have his best NFL year with us this coming season.

Reid always spoke so highly of his reliability and intangibles.

I really am pumped for our WRs. One of the young guys will emerge with KB to go with those 2. It's easily better than last season IMO.

My guess is that it was Derek Anderson. Knowledge of the offense was that of a QB. Plus "his boy" would be Bersin.

He talks about Peppers...DA was playing for the Browns during that time. So, therefore it is either Davis, CJ, Hardy, Godfrey, or Kalil.

Sounds like Bell is gonna make the Pro Bowl.

that guy who runs planet smoothie?

[top dawg]

I am so glad to hear someone with inside knowledge of the organization admit that CJ is the best defensive lineman that we have.  I have always said that.

 

I just have a hard time understanding how anyone that has watched this team would think that we would choose Hardy over CJ, all things being equal, if it comes to that. 

 

Ultimately it is going to come down to money.  If CJ is willing to make some concessions, then he is going to be here, notwithstanding any other player on defense.

I guess if you want to deny reality, all you can do is do the opposite and pretend like Bell is actually worth something.
