How are they supposed to evaluate the second string backs and receivers behind our terrible 2nd string O-line? It's not a mystery why the offense ground to a halt when Browning came in and it wasn't Jake's fault.

Wondering that as well.

If any of them look good behind a crumbled line take notice..

 

And no, it wasn't  Browning's fault as he's going thru the he same thing.

I’d put Mims on PUP and sign two more tackles (and cut Carman). As we know, strains can linger and they’re easy to reactivate.  Let him fully heal and come back by week 6 100%.

 

Players can't go on PUP after they've been active this year. We could put him on IR but that would be season ending at this point. If he still needs more time to heal up when the season is starting we could keep him on the 53, then put him on IR. He could then be recalled once healthy.

I know we all want Cartman cut but do we still have D’ante Smith (sp) in camp ? He and Chris Evans have been ghosts

D'ante Smith has been ghosting 

since they drafted him and it's not because the tackles are that good.

 

They play Carman over him.

That tells alot about his status.

 

I know nothing about this kid aside that he never plays..

Of fuckin course Mims got hurt.

 

:okay-min:

 

Maybe all that could happen on cut down day but right now anyone remotely worth a shit is in someone's camp. Even bums like Flounder.

 

Very unlikely they can sign 2 halfway decent FA tackles either way. May as well stuff Burrow's pockets full of candy and dress him like a pinata if it comes to that.

Can Fleming is a walking Mash Unit but we need bodies.

 

Red flag is he's interviewed with some teams that passed on him.

 

Were in a boatload of trouble at OT

Eesh, looked like Dax got Daijahn Anthony'ed at the end of this clip. Didn't see any post-practice reports of injury, so hopefully he was able to just shake it off.

practicing…  full, including team periods where he’d be getting reps working against the DL in 11x11. 

Ok...

He's ghostly and you know it as well as I do..

He hasn't earned a dollar of his contract up to now.

If he can't jump over Carman what good is he?

Sure, I'm not advocating for the guy... just saying he hasn't done anything in this camp since he's been hurt. He's gotta show something or it's yet another wasted pick... which really, it's been that up to this point in his tenure.

I'm more concerned about these joint practices with other teams.

Too much danger of someone getting injured by some goon trying to

impress their coaches and made the team at our expense.

Conspiracy Theory Bengal from the old board (not me) would say this is the

reason for Mims's torn tit injury holding him out a couple weeks.
