Wanted to mention - at tight end, other than the obvious (Greg), both Ian Thomas and (former Ferris State QB) Jason Vander Laan impressed tonight. Rivera seemed to be happy with both of them during his post-practice interview.

1  2  hour practice a day??  Band camp was a lot tougher than that. ( I know...it's in the CBA agreement...but........)

That’s why these cats drop like flies the first couple weeks.  Training camp used to flush out the imminent injuries.  Now they breeze thru camp and blow out all the tendons in week 1.

Funch is tough as nails....at least he has been on the field

Being tough has nothing to do with injuries and that statement shows your intelligence.

So did Byrd. People are really sleeping on him. He unfortunately didn’t get to play a lot last year but when he did he was clearly our 2nd best WR and his injuries have healed and should not be an issue. Samuel is still recovering. I’ve been a big Byrd fan because he’s produced more than other guys when given the opportunity. 

I'm a huge Byrd fan but a broken arm and leg isn't exactly the same injuries Samuel suffered. Both looked good with the limited time they got and if Byrd can hold up against the riggers of the NFL he has good hands and speed for days. I'm honestly not sure if Samuel will ever be the same. He's got a long way to go but hopefully he will come off Pup week 6 and be good to go.

Im on the Byrd bandwagon this year!  He showed out in the limited time he got before his injury last year.  If he stays healthy I think he could really be a good player for us this year!

It’ll be interesting to see how long of a leash Torrey gets 

Then again... Rivera is our coach so... he most likely doesn’t have to worry but on an even playing field, it could get interesting 

Maybe you can correct me here, but won't Turner have decision on what personnel is on the field? Ron even said he was going to let Norv control the offense, I assume that would include the players on the field.

That was shula's issue was that he didn't know how to use the talent he had on the roster in the right places.

I know this...The man has heart and he played the last games of LY hurt

Not arguing that. He is still injury prone though.
