Fwiw the Hobbs/Lloyd thing happened directly in front of me. Hobby was real mad at himself, threw his helmet and hit himself in the head a few times. Love came over and gave some words of encouragement right after

This is insane value for Tom. Can basically get out at anytime if they want

Sounds like Ty'ron Hopper & LVN are having a really good day of practice. Would be really nice to see those two take a big step up. Nazir Stackhouse too.

I've seen enough. Justin Jefferson rookie season numbers incoming.

Lloyd definitely seems like he's next in the long line of unlucky 3rd rounders and even Savion Williams can't seem to stay on the field. Just trade out of that round. Knock on wood for Kraft.

Really if you think about it -- We have a slew of WRs that all excel at different things giving us a nice swiss army knife of options.

Golden gives you the highlights - burner speed, exceptional hands, from accounts fairly solid route runner, a WR that you gameplan for from the defensive side.
Doubs - reliable hands, you need a 8yd curl route for a 1st down, hes your guy
Reed - bubble screen, scheme him open and get him the ball in space and he can be electric
Wicks - is a bit of a wild card. shows flashes of big time play, but can be forgotten about by the defense with others on the field..think he'll benefit a ton w/ Golden out there.
Watson - Another burner, hate how he catches the ball slapping his hands at it..but if he can catch with consistency, gives us a big downfield threat.
Hardmon - returner, vet to help calm younger guys down on sidelines after the highs/lows throughout a game.
Williams - kinda an unknown. If we got cordalle patterson lite -- by all means give me him in 1-2 years to replace hardmon at returner.

Also, i Love Malik Heath - really think they should just bulk him up a bit and have him be the TE3.

We've got a lot of solid WR's that excel at different things, but Golden is really the only dude on the roster that has that legit "he can do everything" All-Pro potential. I'm still a big Christian Watson fan, but even before the injury he never had the kind of quick burst off the line or ability to adjust to the ball like the truly elite guys can. Golden has that.

Golden's ability to track the ball is superstar-like. Coupled with his sure hands and speed and you have a legit 1a option. Don't think height will be an issue at all when he can attack the ball in the air and his hands are like glue.

I'd consider a Golden jersey but I'm not sure he's going to stick with 22, Malik will be gone after this year.

Golden has gotten off to a great start but im gonna remain bullish on Wicks and apparently, from all reports, he's been having a monster camp so far

Im not gonna be shocked if he has an Adams esque breakthrough 3rd season

Need Lloyd to prove he can stay healthy and hold on to the ball. Don't trust him to do either. Hobbs made a mistake, hopefully they all learned from it.

I read the hit Hobbs had on Lloyd had nothing to do with Lloyds injury.

This is as exciting as having 0 dead cap space next year.

Team is set-up to win for a long time.

Wicks will be a stud if he can fix the drops.

Seems like LaFleur has been pissing off dudes. He snapped at Rasheed Walker and made him take laps after he engaged in a post-play scrap with Enagbare, which pissed him and his fellow linemen off. He also called out Tucker Kraft for fumbles, which pissed off Tucker as defenders are allowed to punch repeatedly at the ball but he isn't allowed to use his stiff arm in practice. Nothing major, but this is what Kraft said:

“That’s just a ‘yes sir, no sir’ mentality with coach at this point,” Kraft said. “You want to obviously keep the ball in the offense’s possession as long as possible. Bus fine, in my opinion. Whatever.”

What’s a “bus fine?”

“Throwing somebody under the bus, which he did just do that to me,” Kraft said lightheartedly.

Also, it sounds like Mecole Hardman hasn't been getting any separation and he muffed a punt. I wonder how likely it his that he'll make the roster.

Yeah, sometimes you can find legit reviews to see. Dont expect them to last but hey, if you want a temp jersey that’ll last a year or two it’s not the worst option. Ive had pretty good luck with soccer jerseys but thats easier with the screen printed logos
