No C is almost the far-more-hip Mickey anymore. Maybe you have to be to have that job, I dunno.

Mickster is pretty much relegated to video only.

I would imagine blowing sunshine up everyone’s ass is written into that contract.

What is this obsession reporters have with Dowdle? I don't think I've seen one second of him that made me think he might be better than Malik Davis.

Some guys look good in shorts, pads and no contact. They don't later.

So people are saying Tolbert appears to have figured some things out. Cautious optimism is warranted.

Talk to me when the preseason starts, until then, don't care.

With that said, he has talent, we'll just have to see if he can put it together.

More so than Tolbert I think all of that reflects pretty highly on Cooks and his leadership. Not all veterans are willing to do that sort of stuff for a younger player.

There have been more player-helping-player stories this offseason than remember seeing in the past.
Gilmore helping Diggs
Vander Esch helping Clark
Parsons helping Williams
Cooks helping Tolbert

If my theory is correct that Tolbert's problem was lack of physicality, then looking good in OTAs won't even matter.

Let's see if he actually makes catches in traffic, runs hard with the ball, and blocks someone when the pads go on.

You don't remember these classics?

Jalen Tolbert is already making some waves in the war for WR4,

And who is at RT?

I mean I agree. But I think they are hoping for a guy with a bigger leg than Gould but would turn to a guy like that if no better options appear.

Personally I think the love of making 55-60 yard kicks is silly. Those are so rare and in most instances from that distance I'd rather go for it. Those kicks are only useful at the end of the half or game.

Agreed.

It's far more important to me that you have a guy you can count on to consistently make the 45 yarders and under.
