Uhh, wut? I said 'may be getting a call pretty soon'. I didn't mean it's an emergency and we need him in ASAP.

Kingsley goes through the first day in pads and Sassy thinks Veach could be calling Donovan Smith pretty soon.

We all know that means you aren’t satisfied with Kingsley after one practice. C’mon…one practice :-)

FAU needs to hit the weight room, he looks pathetic
[Reply]

Yeah, I'm pretty nervous at the prospect of Suamatela/Morris and Caliendo being the left side of our line to start the season given what I've seen so far from them. Sue me.

That being 3 reps in his first padded practice in the NFL going against starters. This is the entire point dude.
[Reply]

Even with limited reps, it's painfully obvious he's raw as fuck and needs a lot more time to develop. Again, I'm not denigrating him, just wouldn't throw him out there besides either Caliendo or Thuney while he's getting back to 100%. That's all.

Kingsley will be fine, he's a rookie and his first pro camp is barely under way... WBF

Friendly reminder that Orlando Brown Jr had the worst pressure rate of any tackle when he was a disaster in 2022 (ironically was 1st last year as well :-)) and Donovan Smith was 5th worst in pressure rate last year.

The bar is extremely low for LT for Kingsley/Morris.
[Reply]

Good stuff! Thanks for posting!

FWIW, Neither Andy or Patrick seem worried about the LT spot.

Caliendo is a fringe roster guy, it's early stop getting worked up.

The defense is always going to be ahead of the offense on the first few days of padded practice. And 1x1 pass rush reps heavily favor the defensive player/rusher.

We have this conversation every year.
[Reply]

Yeah, and when it actually comes time to play our OTs usually end up being pretty below average relative to the rest of the league. What a coinkidink that we keep having this conversation every year.
[Reply]

Imagine bitching about optimism about an organization that's succeeded in damn near every facet the past six years, and is poised for a 3peat.

How miserable does that person have to be?
[Reply]

Can distinctly remember OBJ getting his ass wrecked repeatedly during his second year of camp. Had a bunch of Baghdad Bobs repeating ad nauseum 'its just camp, it's just practice, doesn't matter'. Yeah, he ended up being pretty fucking shitty. Luckily we have a legit GOAT candidate at QB that can mitigate most of that nonsense.
[Reply]

But the problem is that one of those OTs are the guy that you're ready to hit the panic button to add over 3 reps on the first day of pads.
