Greg Dortch imo 100% is called up Saturday. Special teams coach pick per Brady. I think with there history he is the most logical pick. Add in Handcock missing practice I dont expect Alford being the return man.

38-10. Statement win for Allen and Brady

Khalil Shakir. Plays more outside and used like a real wr. I think he will lead the team in every receiving category. 1200 yards 90 catches 11 tds.

He will likely be inactive if he cant nail down the punt return job. Expect Dortch or Sherfield called up in September. Both offer special teams ability.

Protect Josh. Can’t put Dawkins and Brown on islands like they did last time for much of the game. I think spreading them out is the way to attack. Defensively, a good early test. Their Oline is still suspect. Stop the run and explosive pass game and they should be able to have a good showing. Allen wants to beat them pretty badly with his poor showings the last few meetings. I think the offense wants to make a statement. If they can put up points HOU will struggle to keep pace.

They want them PS. They think they can both back. Sherfield may get a roster spot elsewhere. If on PS likely will be elevated early and an injury away from being on the 53. Walker is young and unheralded. I don’t see a team putting him on the field week 1 or 2 in a new defense and scheme.

Two firsts is a steep price. Would need to be 15 sacks or more to justify. At his age with a new contract it’s steep. Im ok Moore, Chubb, Parker, IGB KEO, Bell, Durant and Kilgore Not with the amount dead cap used for Mcdermott’s defense. Crazy the amount of money spent on guys who are not on NFL rosters currently.

Cushenberry is the middle swing. Expect Fina on PS with his multiple position flex. Corbett can play across the line. Curious about Reeds-Adams think he makes it with Ludt and Grable. Thats your 10 imo. Reeds-Adam your inactive.

I think the depth is fine by NFL standards. Anderson is the starter he is the starter. Corbet is the interior swing. Reeds Adams has been very good too. Tackle seems disappointing because Bowry is swimming. A good showing Thursday would be nice. Lundt, Grable and Broeker serviceable. Cushenberry and SVPG are as good a backup C you could find. Imo you have to compartmentalize practice reports vs what has happened on the field for everyone to see. Bowry was a star of camp but struggled in games. Grable had negative practice grades but sat due to injury and fared well Saturday. If oline depth is an issue K. Allen and Brouchell wouldn’t be having the performances they have had. Gore and Wheeler wouldn’t have the space they have. It’s easy to forget how god awful preseason can look with poor oline play. That hasn’t been the case here in awhile for a reason.

Seat geek? Some places give you seat views. Not sure if the new stadium is updated or not.

Always better to do it a year early. With LG unset and Dawkins on a make or break year locking up the right side of the line makes a ton of sense. I think Torrence has the ability to break into the top of the league at his position. Replacement value also needs to be considered. Do you want to use a premium pick at guard? A UFA slightly lower than him would carry a similar price. A player with the same ability or more would be much more expensive.

Dawkins is making it sound its not as severe as it seems. May have dodge a bullet.

Allen is 30. Year 31 and 32 does Vea and Dawkins have a larger impact than a rookie in either season? Dawkins is the question mark. If his lower weight keeps him as a top 20 tackle it’s worth imo. Bigger guys play longer than small ones.

If the rumor is true and on Christmas they do the red helmets with the all white im fine with the concept. Blue helmet is a nice twist. Gonna hold out judgement until i’m buzzed on gameday and see them on the field. Not a fan at first. They looked better as a uniform than a stand alone helmet or jersey.

Really wish they weren’t as high on Shough so Olave would have been available. He is very good.
