Noticed that too. Think his only saving grace is Mustipher is as bad as was advertised.
Not surprising at all that Stephens was out there as CB3. I think he's earned that role. Not sure why Harbs said he'd be a safety again.
they absolutely should have brought back TCC, but maybe they didn't because Mekari can play center.
I like him frfr

Couldn't remember where Mustipher came from and this comment flipped the switch. He's the bum from the bears right? The warned us.
And I think the DL might just be good.

You buys got me all horny. - Joe Judge voice
they made him an offer and he decided to go elsewhere iirc
it's a good initial rush but that's not good bend lol
couldnt turn the corner effectively once moses pushed him off-balance
the initial rush looked great though - first step quickness and get off - good dip and rip - just couldn't maintain balance when flattening - not necessarily bad bend (might have just been unlucky with the timing of the shove from moses) but definitely not showing the loose hips or ankle flexion you'd normally see in good benders
couple more observations from the stadium practice
Sala's hands and feet are messy - i really want him to succeed but got to be more consistent with his technique or we're gonna be complaining about him in pass pro on 3rd downs all year - on the plus side... he's a 6th round pick on his 4th day of training camp and no pads yet - he's got lots of time to hone his craft
offence looks way behind defence which isnt super surprising - more injuries on offence, more new pieces, completely new offence etc. etc. - but looked pretty stark just how much further ahead the defence was/is

I definitely felt this way too. Really wish JK and Bateman were out there
maybe im wrong about this but looked like justice hill was ahead of gus edwards in terms of depth chart and reps too...

I definitely saw that too. Tbh the most concerning thing for me was that I don't think Duv even got a target. Literally everyone else including Sean Ryan got a reception.
Proche, Treadwell, and Black got most of the action after OBJ
im less concerned about that - none of the 1st team receivers looked particularly eye-opening on the outside at the stadium practice
not saying duvernay's magically great - but i wouldnt worry so much about targets
proche got targets but clearly as a stand-in for zay flowers (got all those types of reps in his place)
treadwell and black arent getting those targets from lamar...
i dont want to panic because it is early but was not impressed with sala at all
defence through a bunch at him but yeah didnt look like a guy id expect to be the leader in the clubhouse to be a starter... and yet he's getting all the reps (maybe it was just a bad practice)
happy to give the benefit of the doubt... hot day, other OL were struggling too, first time at M&T with a crowd, defence giving lots of different/difficult looks
lots of reasons why he shouldnt look good - but a little concerning that he looked that unimpressive

That injury rehab must have triggered something in him cause he looked so much smoother last year than previously. Not shocked with how he finished the season and being a better option in the passing game.
