Training Camp Comments, Questions and Concerns

Or it could since Paul only played well when Sizzle was here...

 

I meant as in he is fairly familiar with the team already.

I know, but I just don't think I would be desperate for another Kruger

As some OLB depth I could make the case. Not like he would start unless he really improved or we had a ton of injuries at the position anyways.

I could see the case for defensive end depth, not outside linebacker

Kruger is 6-6 and 290lbs, and was planned to play at the 4-technique, so I would guess he would provide depth at the respective position here, which has been depleted. Lol, I doubt we claim him, though. Doesn't seem likely.

Micheal Sam might be cut. As much as I don't want the media attention , he can get to the QB.

Who would we cut to get him? I'm not sure he can play OLB and we would want that in a player of his position. John Simon has been terrible, but I just can't wrap my head around the Ravens cutting him just yet, even if it's something I would personally consider with his poor play.

I have a player we can cut someone useless to sign. Mike Harris

Eh, I guess he's an option, though I'm not sure how much he will really bolster our group at this point. We'll have to see if we claim him. He's an option, though.

Kamar Aiken is scheduled to take the podium tomorrow.  Word around Twitter is that he wouldn't be doing that if he wasn't going to make the team.

Interesting. Maybe he's been traded lol. Just kidding. He did see snaps on ST right? He just wasn't impressive as a WR in the preseason games. I know he did well in practice but that's just practice. I guess well see tomorrow. Definitely an interesting battle.

Yep.  1st team ST unit at that.

And Campanaro is scheduled for the podium on Tuesday.

Man, I really liked Butler

I imagine he'll make it to the PS.

I'd hope so. Not saying he'd ever been a good starter or anything, but it seemed like he'd be a quality rotational player

I doubt they would look into a developmental type player. They need quality depth and don't have time for a project

Owen Daniels returned to practice!

[Purple Nurple]

CHAMPIONSHIP!!!

[GrimCoconut]

Miracles do happen.

[The Raven]

Guess he started to get worried with cuts coming up now

 

Seriously though, they really may have been resting him. He's old and doesn't need camp, though it is weird that he missed that much time. Practice is more about game planning now, so he has more of a need to be out there.
