With Smith out for a couple weeks I think this is just what we needed.

89 and 17 have no problem finding each other on gameday. Now Jake, more IMPORTANTLY Jarrett will have more reps.

Let 89 sit, relax and 17 and Jarrett have some special "bonding" time...

Calm down folks, Its Aug 10th.....

One thing to consider with Smith out is that we will have two very big bodies helping our running game on the outsides. Whilst I appreciate Smith is a fantastic blocker, Muhammed and Jarrett could just provide even more ammunition for our running game.

Although this will not prevent teams stacking 9 men in the box...

I don't think it's a terrible thing at all. As you said, it will give Jarrett some more reps with Jake, which could be very beneficial when the games count. We saw last year that Smitty can miss a few games and still be the best receiver in the NFL, so if he doesn't play a single pre-season game but is ready for regs, then I am more than happy to have him sit.

Honestly, I think Smith is a better blocker than Jarrett right now.

Smith is one of the better blockers on the team. He also doesn't mind running after the ball on a play, and busting some ass either if it's picked off, or help on other plays down field either.

    • Corbett knows he needs to take a prove it deal and I think he will.  I watched an interview and he was convincingly adamant he wants to stay.  Two different injuries in two years was bad luck.  It's not like it was the same thing.  He knows the game and figures to end his career in a place where he is happy.  You can't really compare how Bryce did with Mays compared to AC.  AC was hurt week 5.  Bryce was on the bench after week 2 and didn't return until week 8. Mays is basically under team control next year as a RFA.  We could offer the right of first refusal for 3m.  I'd offer a 2 year deal which averages a little higher so you can manipulate the cap on his deal.  Additionally, I'd resign Corbett to a team friendly deal.  Many forget he has positional versatility like BC.  Corbett is only one year older, is two inches shorter, about 10 pounds heavier, and has arms that are one inch longer.  Corbett has played LT in college and guard/center in the NFL.  Ideally, bring back all three, but if BC gets big time $$$ AC and CM can battle for center and the other becomes a swing lineman. If we cut bait on Yosh Nijman we may be able to keep all three.  I'd sign up for that in a heartbeat.  
    • As fans, we often exaggerate how bad our team owner is because we are so invested and focused on our team. We don't really see how bad other team owners, like Woody Johnson or Robert Kraft, because we are focused on the Panthers.
