I see people asking for O-line and D-line updates when these guys haven’t even had 4 days of pads yet. Give them a little time to get the opportunities necessary to show something.

It’s the new NFL, they are ramping these guys up and you probably won’t get a good judgment on the trenches until you see scrimmages, joint practices, competitive team periods, and preseason games.

I know we are antsy but gotta be a bit patient on these position groups due to how they are evaluated.

I agree, just looking for some practice tidbits. Once the games start we can get a better gauge on the trench players.

I’m hoping to see if this guy can turn the corner this year.
I’d expect to see fairies with boots on, dancing with dwarves before ever seeing him take a meaningful snap in an NFL game. If not for the foreign player exemption he wouldn’t even qualify as a practice squad player much less the aforementioned jag!

What is the fascination with Alarcon? I don't see him being much more than a camp body and possibly taking a practice squad spot from someone better.
Hard Knocks last year probably.

For me, Alarcon.....along with dudes like Dowdle who seem as though they've been here forever, it's time to step it up or move along.

It might help his development to head up north here to Canada and get much more live snaps in game situations.

Sometimes it is just a matter of getting more snaps to gain the experience to go with your physical gifts.
As a Canadian one thing is certain. CFL players don’t go to the NFL consistently and do well. NFL players coming to Canada usually blow it up because they are just better.
