Actually Wright looks just like Anthony Brown and Awuzie. Great coverage most of the time but can't find the ball - rinse and repeat with those guys!

I agree. I thought he was in good position physically but he had no idea where the ball was.

If you said it, then it must be true. :yourock:

Im really not worried. We have Lamb and Shultz Dak's two favorite weapons from last year. We lose either one of those guys and then I will get worried. Teams always have to break in new receivers. These same types were crying about guys like Wilson before he got his chance. Now they think he is some great loss.

I expect to see a TON of WR subbing along with TE heavy sets. Jake Ferguson is ready to step into 2TE sets today and contribute with Schulz. Lamb will likely get a lot of reps, but he'll get spelled.

From there we will see everything from Big packages where we have 2 TE with Simi Fehoko and Noah Brown being big bodied WRs to block, 3 WR sets wtih Lamb out wide, Tolbert in slot and Justin Houston/Fehoko/Brown playing the other side, and who knows how many combos in between.

Turbin will get plenty of work on Jet Sweeps, screens and other drag route plays.

Tolbert will be a year or two before being a big contributor but i think he gets there just needs work. In the meantime I'm quietly ok with the rest of the setup.

I see Schultz and Ferg on the field together a lot.

Defense looks good so far thats the best thing in years...if teams can not run the ball on us and have to deal with this pass rush i like our chances.

If Ferguson can play as a decent run blocker I think our running offense has a chance to return to being as good as it was in 2016 ASSUMING health.
With improved run block from LG position , it should improve as well. Also looks like until Gallop returns , more Noah Brown so that will help in running game as well as he blocks well

It’s not a good comparison. Jones was a better athlete and had a better skill set. He also was yo-yo’d between positions which is why it took him longer to develop. Wright has no such excuse.

He’s a JAG.
You a scout?
