First of all, I love the LVN pick but one has to wonder if we select him if we know Gary is healthy for the beginning of the season? I'm fine with the pick because you can never have enough pass rushers but, we were hell bent on getting 13 from the Jets. In hindsight, it appears that was because we knew NE was looking at LVN and likely going to take him. As soon as we snagged him, they trade out. I think history will prove Gute right in taking LVN, but it is sort of interesting. If Gutekunst is drafting players for need in the top 15 we are in trouble 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point, although I didn't finish it was two-fold. 1. We may have worked the Jets trade differently. OR 2. We could have traded down, gotten a really good pass rush and possibly a 2nd round pick. For the record, I love the LVN pick and believe he turns into an absolute beast for us. Edited August 8, 2023 by Old Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record, I love the LVN pick and believe he turns into an absolute beast for us. My point was, and I admit it was probably overly snarky, that there is no way the draft pick of LVN was impacted by whether or not they thought Gary would be back by week 1. This is the same front office who drafted a QB 3 years before they needed one, and that has admitted this year is about letting young guys grow together even if it means there will be hiccups. Gute is making draft picks with 2025 in mind, not the first month of 2023. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If "taking the 21 year old pass rusher who's got good size and plus athleticism who was productive in college" is a "need" pick, you have a weirdly constructed roster.

I watched the Bakh interview. It was really well done. Peter tried to get him to say anything negative on Love, and he didn't. Bakh talked about being the oldest vet on the team now and what that means. He was asked to put on his GM hat and talk about Love...again Bakh was complimentary. Always stated how calm Jordan acts. And Bakh is looking very ripped in the upper body. He said this was the first offseason in a while where he was able to rest and get stronger so he can get through a season. He said the front office and him were talking about how to manage his practice to keep him fresher for games and to not "beat him up". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brat&Beer Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Matt Schneidman @mattschneidman Love went 3/5 passing in first 11-on-11s against Bengals D. Nice quick slant to Samori Toure for a substantial gain, nice completion to FB Henry Pearson on the right side, another nice gain to Watson on crosser over middle. Last throw was underthrown bomb to Doubs incomplete. Paul Dehner Jr. @pauldehnerjr Session of 11-on-11 between Bengals O and Packers D dominated by Green Bay. Nothing of note outside of one pass to Tyler Boyd up the seam and a nice run by Joe Mixon. Otherwise a struggle to find any space or success in the pass game. Ryan Wood @ByRyanWood Ten-yard TD pass for Jordan Love in back, right corner end zone to Christian Watson. Watson beat Bengals CB Cam Taylor-Britt to the corner, and Love didn’t miss. Wes Hodkiewicz @WesHod Carrington Valentine now with two PBUs in red zone. He’s outside corner. Jaire practicing but not in team Ryan Wood @ByRyanWood Bengals CB Mike Hilton picks a Jordan Love pass from the 3-yard line. #Packers had bunch left on the goal line, and looked like Hilton jumped a screen pass off the jump. Took it the other way. Young QB sold on a route before the snap. Ryan Wood @ByRyanWood Jordan Love finished 5-8 for roughly 32 yards, 2 TDs and INT in red-zone period. Hit Watson on corner route from 10-yard line on one TD. Threaded a pass to Jayden Reed for 5-yard touchdown on stop route in right seam on other. Lone pick on screen to the left from 3. Matt Schneidman @mattschneidman������FIGHT������ Multiple swings thrown. I saw Elgton Jenkins in there. Runyan and Doubs were on the ground. Didn’t see Bengals in the mix but the skirmish lasted a while. Ryan Wood @ByRyanWood Jordan Love drops a 51-yard TD to Romeo Doubs down right sideline on 3rd & 6 against Cam Taylor-Britt. Didn’t miss that deep ball. Let Doubs run under it, and he did the rest. Matt Schneidman @mattschneidmanElgton Jenkins vs. D.J. Reader in a scuffle now with the play far away. Jenkins swings at Reader’s head and connects. Jenkins is out of the drill now. OL coach Luke Butkus escorts him out. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brat&Beer Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Bill Huber @BillHuberNFL Defense wins 2-minute. Offense gets a long FG try from Carlson but he’s short from somewhere around 58-60. Ryan Wood @ByRyanWood Jordan Love was 4-7 in 2-minute drill, one incompletion a clock kill. Had Romeo Doubs deep down right side vs. Sidney Jones IV, but Doubs couldn’t bring it in. Not a bad ball. Love hit Samori Toure for first down in deep in route, converting 3rd & 3. Otherwise, lot of checks. Rob Demovsky @RobDemovsky Both defenses for GB and CIN win 1s vs. 1s two-minute drill. Anders Carlson short on about a 58-yard FG. Bengals’ O ran out of time. Carlson goes 7 for 10 on kicks today. Long make was from 51. Also missed from 56. That’s it for the joint practice after 2hrs and 6mins . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
