Venturi said it best - Defenses are going to put 9 close to the line to stop JT, the QB run, and short passes over the middle. That takes away Pitt, Downs and the TEs. We need a WR who is quick and fast enough to beat man coverage on the outside. I think Shane has those guys now. -
I heard he had a phenomenal 2022 season, but in 2023 it looked like he didn't give any effort at all. I'm guessing there's more to it than that and there are some off-field issues. He'll likely get picked up as an UDFA and if not teams have definitely dug up something about him they don't like at all. -
He's so explosive, I think they will find ways to get him on the field early, if he hasn't won the #2 spot by then. 4 WR sets, Mitchell and Pierce on outside, Pittman and Downs inside. Maybe throw a 5 WR set out there with Gould (since this is his thread, lol) I agree though, I don't think he will want to play behind someone for long. I actually like Pierce, but I anticipate Mitchell passing him up sooner than later, as long as he shows some maturity and gets to work. Pierce definitely has a leg up early, being in the system for a year already. -
No doubt, think there are very few top 53 spots to be earned. Will be a hard team to make. Ballard discussed that last night in presser. See below. I do however, think QB#3 is up for grabs. Ehlinger is old regime and in contact year. Imagine Steichen wants his own guys in there to grow and learn, with 4 years on rookie deal left. Same way with LBer, I think there are a couple spots there that can be had, especially if you can cover somebody. As far as bench press reps, not too concerned about it. Leonard only had 17. If he can play some coverage, he will have a shot. Abraham really just has 1 guy to beat out, Lammons for the backup nickel. Unless they think he can play outside more, then he would also have a chance at 4th outside CB. I don't think there's anywhere for Laulu. Imagine the plan for him is to get him in the building and to the practice squad this season. Look forward to going over all groups and really narrowing it down. Locks, position battles and outside players to add. Post Draft presser:

I want to see how he responds bc he doesn't seem like the type to take it well being behind another player for long.
