Day 1 and 2 OTAs summary

They don’t have options at corner.

Jourdan Lewis was a big loss for this defense.
That’s what I was asking….how is Bland not one of the top two physically able corners on the team as of now?

Maybe they are just getting him work in the slot, I don’t really see the problem or why Bland would.

Because the slot is probably the most difficult position on defense.

He can’t squat on routes as much which he is great at.

No sideline to protect him so it’s easier to give up passes.

All this could lead to less money for him.

But he’s our best option. They desperately need a slot corner.

Hopefully Carson and Mukuamu can show something.

I know Mukuamu can trail on drags really well.
 
Clarence Hill indicated that D. Bland was not thrilled about playing the slot in his contract year.
I get why he wouldn’t but he’s good in the slot and if he gets 5-6 picks his market value will be fine. We should extend him and move on from Diggs

He is. We probably want him in the slot because it is one of the most important positions in Eberflus's scheme. Doesn't mean he isn't going to play outside when we only have two corners on the field.
