Re: WFT 2020 Training Camp

11.6M is an expensive luxury but with us not being contenders, strange covid season ahead and plenty of cap space ... its a luxury we can afford.

Personally .. I do want to see him play in meaningful playoff games. Thats what most of these players spend their whole lives dreaming about .. then you get drafted by the Skins or Bengals or Browns or Dolphins or Jags and you end up being a Joe Thomas.

-----------------------

I am starving for some real Training camp news, little clips etc ..

Dude...you and me both. Once the calendar switches from July to August, it’s fucking football season and I’m ready to go.

Also gotta say, some of these reporters need to get in gear and start providing some info.

Im coming to the conclusion they have been completely shut out of Ashburn and wont be able to really be anywhere near the building until tomorrow for the first time.

Be nice if Julie Donaldson could be there and put out some twitter shots etc .. we saw a few last week

Re: WFT 2020 Training Camp

Listened to the Sheehan and Ron interview

Sheehan asked him who has stood out so far who may be under the radar with Skins coming together and working...

Kevin Pierre-Louis OLB
Troy Apke S
Saahdiq Charles LT

WR...Cam Sims and Steven Sims

Montez Sweat

Also said this is the competition for left tackle: Charles, Geron Christian and Cornelius Lucas.

Re: WFT 2020 Training Camp

I didn't realize Cam Sims is still with us, I thought we released him last year after a key drop.

Surprised to see Apke's name although, I can see him becoming an important special team player for us eventually.

Re: WFT 2020 Training Camp

Doesn't Cam Sims do this every year? He kills it in practice but is no where to be found once the season starts. He has the perfect opportunity to take the #2 job..

Yes he does. If he doesn’t seize the opportunity this time around, it’s hard to see him doing that. WR2 is open; I’d imagine S Sims grabs the slot.

Well he was basically a rookie last year (in 2018 suffered a season ending ankle injury in the first game of the season).

Re: WFT 2020 Training Camp

Padded practices today with media. Should be a good day for twitter info

edit -- looks like JP Finaly is giving good minute updates

JP Finlay
@JPFinlayNBCS
·
3m
Kyle Allen gets second team reps in 11v11. Alex Smith not cleared for team drills yet

JP Finlay
@JPFinlayNBCS
·
4m
First tight end I’ve noticed in 11v11 is Logan Thomas.

JP Finlay
@JPFinlayNBCS
·
4m
11v11 starting now. Haskins at QB. FIrst down connection with Steve Sims. 2nd pass sailed to McLaurin and Darby breaks it up.

JP Finlay
@JPFinlayNBCS
·
10m
Something I noticed - Reuben Foster wearing a big brace on his knee. Doesn’t look like Bryce Love is wearing anything on the knee.

JP Finlay
@JPFinlayNBCS
·
45m
Watching Alex Smith - he’s zipping the ball. Footwork seems normal.

JP Finlay
@JPFinlayNBCS
·
26m
Steve sims having a good showing in 7v7. Connecting w Haskins a few times. Those two worked out together this summer and Sims said on the pod how strong he felt in the pairing

JP Finlay
@JPFinlayNBCS
·
58m
Quick observation - DB coach Chris Harris has a lot of energy. Going thru stretches and drills with the DBs.

--------------

Alex Smith participating in 7v7 but not 11v11

videos and more on his twitter feed

Re: WFT 2020 Training Camp

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.

I have a feeling Thomas will surprise people this fall. I know there is only a really small sample of Thomas's playing time as TE but his highlights shows how athletic he is and he isn't afraid of physical contacts. This along with the new TE coach who coached Olsen, hopefully this will translate well on the field.

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