Boobie has a "tweak" in his groin

[Eric4280]

I really wish we grabbed someone like Sean Tucker for free or gave Camerun real consideration. I just feel like you know what you get with Chuba and Blackshear and it’s super duper replaceable.

Why would he play even if he was healthy.  No point 

Frank said that all starters would contribute in some fashion in this game. That's is if they are healthy of course.  You would have to ask Frank about the logic behind that.  He said that as a completely new team they all need some more reps in the new system to get ready for the season.  That includes the coaching staff.

I would assume the logic would largely be tied to trotting out a rookie QB week 1 in a brand new offense.   Bryce Young needs reps.  And you want to protect him by giving him real players. 

Last #1 overall pick in Carolina played in all 4 preseason games.

Sigh. More of Mrs Rhule's choice for RB.  Can't wait.

Screw it, it's preseason. Let Sanders heal up and get Chuba and Blackshear meaningful snaps. Sounds good to me.

Really? That's a ton of muscle to add even for a professional athlete.

Fitt said "20-25lb in muscle this offseason" and he was saying it with a shocked face when he was telling the story. Said that Chuba was barely recognizeable. Most of these players lose a lot of weight during season bc of the types of training, and switching to a different regimen especially one focusing on muscle growth isn't that hard to believe to be done if you have the frame for it.... especially if you are 24 y/o.

All of Hubbard’s experience in hand, it’s worth noting: this likely won’t be the same Hubbard. He spent most of this offseason, he said, working on gaining weight that won’t go away down the stretch of a 18-week season.

“I’ve definitely gained weight,” Hubbard said. “Just working on getting stronger. These last couple seasons, throughout the season, I’ve lost quite a bit of weight as the season has gone on. And I got a little slimmer, looking like a receiver at times (laughs).

“So I definitely said I have to bulk up a little bit. Obviously still be fast and explosive and all that, so I’ve worked on it. It’s been really good so far.”

 

Thank you! Well, damn, I’m ready to see him this weekend now.

Sit him till week 1.

and people were raging because I wanted better depth in the backfield a couple weeks ago.  We got a pretty valuable dude at QB that is going to be repping all preseason.    Hope Hubbard's pass pro has improved.

This is probably nothing because I literally stood next to him yesterday at practice and he was fully padded.

Without PEDs?

Hard to believe he had that bad high ankle just a couple years ago.  Then sitting behind CMC, and to top it off, Fhules coaching.

It's not too hard to imagine that Chubba could turn into a productive 1b in the right system.  We certainly (hopefully) have a legit O Line, and now a QB that will make defenses respect the passing game (hopefully), I think he could be in for a decent role in this offense.

Running backs are easier to find then other skill positions. If they need to bring someone in due to a lingering injury, it shouldn't be a huge deal. 

[MasterAwesome]

Came here for boobies and groin...leaving disappointed.

[RumHam]

well he gets hurt go get dalvin, which we should have anyways.
