I get the feeling Daley is one of those guys who's gonna flash a few times but be average at best long-term.

When your always a glass half empty type of guy, you have these feelings.

 Playing LT as a rookie that went to camp training as a OG, thats a feat with every few f-ups. 

I mean, this is a pretty compelling point right here. Daley certainly seems promising for a 6th rounder.

Gotta say it's impressive that Daley locked down the starting G spot over Schofield, a decent starting G the last couple years. This is a 2nd year player who had to adjust from tackle in college and much of last year, beating out a proven veteran. For a 6th rounder to show that promise as guard while also holding up at times in spot duty at left tackle last year when rookies overwhelmingly struggle to play LT their first year or two (or always for some), that's looking like a hell of a 6th rounder. There's 1st round O lineman with worse resumes. And even though we might be a bit weak overall from an offensive line standpoint (although I think we could potentially surprise), it shows we actually have some depth on the line that Schofield is coming on as a backup.

It's been a long time since this team has given me any reason to be optimistic.

Offseasons don't really move the meter for me because every fanbase thinks their team is going to win the Super Bowl in March.

Daley? he could wind up being better than I believe he is but I don't think he will.

As far as the team in general, this isn't the year to have expectations. If we do well this year, then the next year or the year after that maybe.

But not this one.
