Hmmm…

Matt was seen doing some pushups after being pulled... Hoping for the best.

Guessing Pitt leaked their offer from last week to get SF to make a move. Obviously SF wants more from Pitt specifically a WR to replace BA either from them or a 3rd team. Reminder life is a flat circle

Dianna Russini is pretty well sourced especially in NY has the timeline yesterday. Sounds like it came from the agent but makes sense.

life is a flat circle.

49ers are may have had some 2nd thoughts about just taking the Pittsburg offer to move on. Steelers must think that Aiyuk only have eyes for them and thus not offering a good/reasonable package. As long as the 9ers don't just get too annoyed by the antics BA this could last a while.

Hmm… Then…

Keon NFLN interview.

Yeesh. Just one rep but Yeesh.

Probably nothing… then again.

Caught it randomly last night. I was surprised how honest the clips were about keeping or letting Barkley go along with support for Daniel Jones. Good insight into the offseason right now scouting for Free Agency and some draft GM'ing. A new fresh angle for Hard Knocks. Bonus for anyone on the fence on watching. The Giants have so many Bills connections through Schoen and Daboll evaluations of Moss and Singletary as FA RB's, couple Josh Allen draft highlights, even a Boogie Basham appearance. It felt like like watching a alternate universe JV Bills team.

The tricky hold in.

This is fine…

Probably nothing, but yet another minor injury hold XW out. Least raises an eyebrow.

Josh sealing the deal.

This is the idea. MVS isn't a sexy signing but does fill the Gabe role that the roster needed. Big WR with speed that forces safety's to be honest and play deep. He wlll play the true X role and allows Coleman, Shakir, and Samuel to mix and match in the slot and the Y defense. Kincad will also benefit by keeping the middle more open with the safety's respecting MVS speed. We all know about the drops but he's had that since Green Bay and still got the respect from the opposing secondary's.

Beane said they only had 20-21 1st round grades. Picking 28 the plan was to trade down if one of those didn't fall. The scouts still could have had Keon at #23, #28 or #33 on the board but graded as a second rounder. Sometimes 1st rd graded players do fall which is what happened with Kincad and attack which happened last year. Trust the board.

I herd that too but I think he clarified it that his game was better in the SEC/ACC systems where there was more passing rather than the ground an pound system the Big 10 teams play thus his transfer our of MSU.

Didn't the Bills do just that though? They got Claypool in for a workout without media breaking the news he was in town (WGR mentioned they were being told rumors he was in town). He must have shown something skill wise and the Bills signed him if he didn't no one would have likely known then they announced with 2 other players to make appear it less notable. Once signed it has be announced by the league so there isn't a way to hide it.

Quick 8 min video with Harmon and Walkman explaining how Keon can work in Buffalo.

Hate to see it NE.

Maybe, but the change to the kick off rules makes that much more like a punt return thus the need. With Hardy gone it opened a spot for a primary PR late in the draft and they decided to go with Hardy. Fun to think that Keon could do it but I really doubt they want their top pick returning. Still good to have that skill in case the PR gets injured in a game.

Not sure this was already posted. Tyler Dunn posted snipits from his scouts opinions on Coleman. Some good some bad. Comparisons to Tee Higgins and Anquan Boldin show there is a real path for Keon to succeed. “NFC scout: “Great body control. Unbelievable hands. Great understanding of defenses. Loves the game of football. Receivers that ran slow include Keenan Allen, Cooper Kupp, Allen Robinson, Davante Adams. He’s got as good if not better body control than those guys do. He just goes up and goes for it. This guy’s so talented as an athlete that he could have gone to Kansas and played basketball.”
