Of course a fellow Seagull would say that! And of course I agree 100%, Tryon looked lost and slow out there last night. Not good for a 2nd year player.

I agree the undrafted Seagull will be competition for Tryon. Not the time for the FO to save face because they wasted a draft pick on him. He has a couple weeks to make drastic improvement or we cut our losses. I wouldn't be too upset either, we have enough depth.

I think the lone bright spot was Orakpo. I was at the game and it looked like he got pressure on Flacco on almost every passing play. He is gonna be GOOD. Other than that, we looked a little flat. But, hey its the first game of the pre-season.

One thing that pissed me off was the fact we didn't throw Cooley's way once. I know he wasn't in the game very long but it seems to me his production has gotten lesser and lesser every year. I wanna see more of him this year than last year definitely.

And I do agree with chickenmonkey, we need to throw downfield much more often than we did last year. The last deep completion I remember is the one to Moss in Week 2! You gotta at least try it to stretch the damn field!

Um, huh? He had a nice grab for a first down last night in limited action.

Also, last season he set a career high with 83 catches, which led the entire team.

Dude, Cooley led the team in receptions last year. Not trying to pick on you but if he didn't get any chatches last nihgt I wouldn't worry. He will get plenty when it starts to count.

I won't be surprised if Portis gets cut for missing preseason games.......
