[Wood]

So Gathers info at the bottom

Scuffles are great! Shows that these boys want to play and win. Hope Garrett doesn't have a nervous breakdown.

 

[Nexx]

in all fairness there isnt a TE in the league who can block a DE or LB one on one on the outside. expecting a TE to play like outside Tackle isnt realistic. at the same time, Rico's reaction went too far.

bro it's kyle freaking wilber.

He missed some blocking assignments recently and also chunked his helmet then. It's not just this one instance but it's not a whole bunch either. The only news we've actually had on him has been poor blocking recently.

So what, he just wants to catch the ball. We Have been so spoiled with the complete TE with JW

 

[SilverStarCowboy]

He wants it but he can't have it...he'll have to earn it.

 

[jday]

Let me join you on the train. I don't think he will supplant Hanna or Swaim plus he's always chunking his helmet. I can sit next to you?

I'm with you guys.

 

[Risen Star]

I'd lose it too if I couldn't block Kyle Wilber.

 

[TheCoolFan]

Rico sucks...he should go try to make the NBA if he still wants to play pro sports. I guess one more year of messing around with him and then dump him for a better project, hopefully one who at least played college football.

 

[links18]

Rico is turning into a distraction. We need him like we need Kapernick--not at all. What's next? Someone kidnaps his dog? I'd cut him tomorrow.

 

[LocimusPrime]

bro it's kyle freaking wilber.

 

[JohnnyTheFox]

Beat by Kyle Wilbur............
Says so much.

 

[LocimusPrime]

In all fairness, I'm at least willing till the end of preseason before pronouncing Rico no bueno. He's only had a couple of years of football experience (2) and it's hard to pick up everything. However, I do believe that Swaim and Hanna are firmly planted ahead of him on the depth chart.

For now I'm jumping on board with Neal. He's been showing going stuff in training camp

 

[Tabascocat]

I would give Rico these next 5 games to prove that he will be a capable NFL player. If no progress, time to stop this project IMO.

 

[Sepia]

Wait so he gets beat once and all of a sudden it's not good. Players win and lose battles all the time it's the name of the game. Have we really much about him getting beat in these type of drills? Or are we hearing about it because he got emotional after getting beat and a fight broke out?

He just seems unprofessional. Plus, I haven't heard about him looking particularly good at camp. Not enough to upstage Hanna or Swaim. I thought he'd be a lock for the 53, but we'll see.

 

[LocimusPrime]

Just posting the latest info. Hope he steps it up soon. If he lives up to his potential, then we have a player! If he doesnt, we cut bait. Either way, we'll know in a few weeks







No bueno. Mala onda

 

[xwalker]

I saw Rico and Kyle scuffle, but I didn't see where Noah was involved.

I'm off the Rico hype train for now.

Based on 1 practice snap?

The rusher has the advantage in that drill as compared to a game.

I want guys that get upset if they lose a snap.

I don't want guy that prefers to be a backup (Anybody remember Felix Jones...).

This isn't the first time he's thrown off his helmet in frustration.
