WFT 2020 Training Camp
 

With all that happened recently we've been sucked into non-football conversations (and I'll plead guilty of engaging quite a lot about what the new name should be)...

So I figured we could enjoy some football talk in a fresh thread, [I][U]let's try to keep non-football talk out of this one[/U][/I] !

With players coming in and Training Camp scheduled to start next week, give me:

[B]-Position you're most excited about:[/B]

DL. No brainer.

[B]-Position you're most worried about:[/B]

LT. I know a lot of you love Saahdiq Charles, but I'm not sure he's NFL ready yet. And LT is key to Haskins development. Most of us thought we were going to sign a veteran à la Donald Penn... But it doesn't look like it, am I wrong ?

[B]-Position battle you're most intrigued about :[/B]

CB for me. Excited to have Kendall Fuller back, I think Darby is solid, and with Moreau, Moreland and Stroman we have some young exciting talent !

[B]-Sleeper player you think will have a big impact:[/B]

Jon Bostic. His performance last year is highly underrated IMO. Figure out a way to have Bostic, Thomas and Holcomb on the field at the same time and our front 7 looks nasty !

So you want us to bring up non-football talk lol? I kid.

I like Lucas and Charles. Don't think LT will be a position of strength but it will be serviceable.

I'm interested to see how Davis looks at FS and if we can get sufficient production out of the TE position.

Haha yeah just fixed it, I re-read before posting but... meh ^^

TE definitely is a question mark.

Re: WFT 2020 Training Camp
 

D-line and WR excite me.

D-line is obvious.

McLaurin, Sims, Gandy-Golden, Gibson...playmakers with a ton of speed. Such a shame about Harmon but he'll be back.




I'm worried about LT also. TE is a problem but with the number of weapons we have at WR and RB, I think we'll be fine as long as the TE on the field can block.




Sleeper, I think Cole Holcomb might be a monster this year. He was a tackle machine last year but he looks ready to go this year, as long as he didn't catch LaRon Landry Syndrome.

D-Line excites the hell out of me ...

I think opposing QB's will be sounding a lot like those folks interviewed on Sharkfest on Nat Geo Channel, or Shark Week on Discovery Channel ...

"Yeah, I didn't see anything, and then noticed a shadow out of the corner of my eye. Then suddenly I felt this WHAM. And then this crushing pressure. And then I looked down and saw all this blood, and saw Chase Young doing a sack dance on my head. It all happened so fast." -- Daniel Jones


Seriously .. our D, with [B]Del Rio[/B] running it, could be deadly. It could single handedly win us a couple of games next year in the NFC Least.

Yeah the DL is promising and I don't really see a legit hole in our D...

Re: WFT 2020 Training Camp
 

Wow, just listened to Ian Rapoport on NFLNetwork:

-No physical before 5 days and 2 negative CoVid testings
-No actual football practice before 16 days of TC... only strength and conditioning for 2 weeks+

Wonder how much it'll affect team preparation early on.

Can we please stop using WFT.

Every time I see it I just think WTF?

:stop:

Wow!

With Alex Smith's luck, he'll probably get the COVID.

[quote=Number44;1256412]Wow![/quote]

Is Alex Smith on the active roster? And has he been doing workouts with any teammates?

I hope he just takes a symbolical snap and retires. He has generational wealth and I would hate to see him get injured again. The man nearly lost his leg...

But you have to respect his will, abnegation, strength of mind and incredible courage !

So he's been cleared to return to football... by his chirurgical team. Not by team doctors yet.
