I'm just not uber impressed with Sermon. I get that he's a handful to bring down, but no explosion in his game at all in my opinion. 

If you want to see the best of Sermon, it's not going to be like this. His value is off the shotgun in those inside power runs and zone read runs. This offense isn't what suits him...I'm referring to what we are seeing today.

McKinnon just with the number change has looked 30% better than what he looked with us last season lol.

Twas starting to feel the same way. He really looks average.

James has been a disaster this off season. I don't know how he makes the roster at this point. I just can't trust him as a receiver and he's simply not good enough overall as a returner. 

Aiyuk, Deebo, Sanu, Sherfield, Jennings should be the top 5. 

And then who? Benjamin? Hurd? Cracraft? Go with a ton of TEs?

I think he's an okay complimentary back. I just don't see him being "the dude" at any point. Maybe he can be a Brandon Jacobs  (who was "that dude" for a couple of years) ? I think that would be a good return on investment.

If we carry 6 I think it would be Benjamin, though humorously, kind of the same problems in the past . Definitely won't be Hurd. Cracraft seems like a guy that we should not have an issue with putting on the PS.

Test #20 on the perimeter this play, I want to see how he plays the ball.

[TecmoSuperJoe]

Saw a fan we should put in at RG. Looks like she could move some lumber. 

[J-ALL-DAY]

Okay Hufanga! Great angle taken there....Unfortunately the same can't be said about Harris lol.

Hufanga just is always by the ball. Only mishap was the DPI, but that was due to a bad pass messing up his timing. He's a baller. 

[Forge]

Did I just see Marcell Harris miss on that tackle or was that webb?  

[Geek]

Huf with the big tackle. Street sighting there.

[Forge]

Really awesome to get to put Lance in a 2 minute drill here.

Gotcha. I figured we'd carry 6 and at least Ritchie gets open. Drives you nuts that he can't catch though.

[J-ALL-DAY]

Lance got lucky there, needs to put more arc on it if he wants to give his guy a chance there.

Had the RB in the flat there. Banks with some good reps in pass pro. 

[Forge]

That was Jennings' bread and butter at Tennessee. Phsyical dude. 

First bad pass by Trey.
