Fair enough then. Thanks for answering.
The only one I've remotely talked up was WR Vasher and he wasn't even drafted. Honestly, he's the only one that really caught my eye while they were still playing college ball.

The rest I've just noticed because of their highlight video. I see potential in this draft class, a lot of it but I want to see it in action. I'm not into the hype that others are into. There is something pure and honest about an actual game that can not be duplicated on a practice field. A DB getting burned in front of the whole world is the kind of honest feedback I'm looking for. An LBer making a sack is the kind of feedback I'm looking for. A DT snatching the QBs pass out of the air for an INT can not be denied to be a game-changer that we have been sorely missing.

For this OL to regain its composure and to begin becoming dominant, it was vitally important that Biadasz had to be that quick growth fixture, and has been one of my biggest concerns,, Tyron saying this is really important and significant.
If Biadasz has the C locked in, than this OL has a real shot at becoming relevant early this season.
This is the best news Ive heard in a while,, good stuff here.

Lol. Still banging that drum are you? Parsons has the talent to be an all pro. And he probably will be. Just get on board or get out.
Your hype and attempts at intimidation will not dissuade me from my perspective. I will like or unlike Parsons in my own due time based on how he plays in the regular season.

Its like drafting a talent like Von Miller and giving him a red shirt season..

I wrote this on January 30th:



In that post I was basically saying that I wasn’t crazy about spending a top 10 pick on an off the ball LB… however, if his character checked out (it did), and if they planned on using him to attack the QB some as an on the ball player (they are), then I’d love for him to be the pick.

I will admit though… I didn’t expect them to be nearly so aggressive with how they’re going to use him. Garrett would have put Parsons at MLB and there he would have stayed. So I pretty much Moved on to other draftees.

I couldn’t be happier that I was wrong about using him right. It is the most impactful player they could have drafted, IMO, and it really increases what the defense can do in Quinn’s first year here.

I’m saying this, not to say I was right (I’m wrong plenty)… but to say there were guys on here who thought very highly about Parsons. He just wasn’t talked about nearly as much as the corners,
What I'd like to know is how in the world one of the raps on Parsons was questionable football instincts.

I see the complete opposite.

Anyone else get a kick out of the thread headline? Mini camp tweets has a rather whimsical air to it. Is it a small camp or for small players. Is it a bird call training camp?

I think they should have one of those signs like Disney World has only reversed at the entrance to The Star. "You cannot be any taller than this to enter mini camp". They could have Rowdy standing there holding out a stick, give the leering goon something to do.

I always felt the same. His natural football instincts are good. He just was inexperience at LB. he actually read things and reacted overall very well for somebody so young at a position. IMO.
