WFT 2020 Training Camp

I like hearing that Rivera is pushing the players to change the lazy, slow pace, no sense of urgency attitude that existed under Gruden.

Yeah, listened to this episode of Finlay's podcast (https://art19.com/shows/washington-football/episodes/7066fba0-b884-4d84-ae5b-685fd98b9626/) and among other interesting things I loved how Steven Sims JR repeatedly said how coach Rivera was a "there's a time for fun and there's a time for football" coach, that he wanted things done his way, and that you had do to what coach Rivera said...
You can feel in his voice it's less funny and way more strict than under Jay.

Right on the money. Many players (coming from other NFL teams) were shocked at the slow pace of practices under Gruden. In addition, Gruden was Uber-soft. Players were not challenged in his practices. In my opinion, that’s why the team always started off the season slow and they could not get up for the big games. Teams like the Patriots finished practice by running hills.

In the fighter pilot world, “You practice as you fight”. Football [emoji458] is the same, which is why I’m happy that Rivera has emphasized a fast tempo in practice, and yelled at the players who were just standing around. Killing the Gruden, lazy ass practice tempo will take a little time but players will appreciate it later when they start winning games.

Interesting episode after 1st public padded practice (https://art19.com/shows/washington-football/episodes/aceff1f5-8d40-4f08-aba9-7a6d9d43cfee/)

JP Finlay made a way too early bold prediction saying you can lock Wes Martin down as your starting LG. Love it !

Chase is throwing offensive linemen already.

I expect something like this from Young in the training camp, I would be excited if he did that to Tyron Smith, Terron Armstead or Ronnie Stanley in real games.

Not looking too serious but still hate that feeling...

You guys do this every year. It is practice and take it with a grain of salt. Docston was killing it in practice a few years ago, as was Pryor.. lol.

Ryan Anderson is only practicing with the DE...he will not be with the LB. surprising but this is where they have him.

At this point, with Anderson, predator and Sweat...why is RK on the team? We also have 2 other young guys with some potential. Move RK finally...in a offseason of change, this is the perfect time to see if we can get a 3rd or 4th round pick.

He should have been traded last year. He is a part time player at best right now.

Heard some speculation in the media that Logan Thomas could be our guy at TE and really step up.


We'll see. TE is a crapshoot. Too bad there's no preseason, I'd like to see what Moss can do. He may not even make the team because we'll definitely keep 3 other TEs in Sprinkle, Thomas and Rodgers. Hale Hentges is even in the mix for another spot.

At least Thomas is an athlete. Sprinkle = LOFT - Lack of Fuckin' Talent. I don't see him making the team and he shouldn't.

Sprinkles other problem is he counts more ($2.2m) on the cap than the others and it is the last year of his rookie deal. He has had three years to show something, I would prefer my 3rd TE to have some upside and be cheap like Moss or Hentges (sp?). I don't think there is enough talent there to warrant keeping a fourth TE, if we need a replacement during the season those on the FA market are going to be just as good I think. So if he is not the starter of principle backup/blocking TE I don't think you can justify keeping him at that salary.
