Actually not completely... Depo's assessment was that Wentz was not a Top 20 NFL QB. If we look at his 4 years in the League we see that by some measures he is and by others he is not. For QB Rating he's #20 on the nose. I was not a Wentz guy. Only 1.5 seasons at a dubious competition level put me off. That the half-season 9-7,missed was his 4th and final one compounded that. That the injury was a broken throwing wrist compounded that. I am still not a Wentz guy. Injury plays a part, but the fact that a journeyman like Foles could go and win a SB with Wentz's team says just how good that team around him has been. Add Doug Peterson's Offense to that mix and I'm lost how how much to credit Wentz for his 9-7, 2019 season with less talent. At least he played thru his 2019 injuries (transverse vertebrae fractures) which have been an issue for him dating back to his H.S. days. Let's see what 2020 brings.

As "How did you become?" Yes... As in "Why are you still?" Not that I am aware of... ... although it's a question I ask my self all the time...

Nice... a few eye catchers... Austin Mack, Ohio State WR | HT: 6011 | WT: 212 | HAND: 10 | ARM: 33 | WING: 79 ... tape says SdB may be onto something. Stephen Sullivan, LSU TE| HT: 6060 | WT: 254 | HAND: 10 3/8 | ARM: 35 1/8 | WING: 85 1/8 ... take him as a TE, grow him to be an OT... Josh Jones, Houston OT | HT: 6051 | WT: 311 | HAND: 10 1/8 | ARM: 33 5/8 | WING: 80 1/2 ... arms on short side for OT Matt Peart, Connecticut OT | HT: 6064 | WT: 310 | HAND: 9 3/4 | ARM: 35 1/8 | WING: 86 1/8 ... nice dimensions, added to my scout list. Terence Steele, Texas Tech OT| HT: 6062 | WT: 312 | HAND: 9 1/8 | ARM: 35 7/8 | WING: 85 1/8 ... ditto the above Lloyd Cushenberry III, LSU C | HT: 6032 | WT: 312 | HAND: 10 1/2 | ARM: 34 5/8 | WING: 83 1/8 ... ditto again D-side Javon Kinlaw, South Carolina DT| HT: 6051 | WT: 315 | HAND: 10 1/8 | ARM: 34 5/8 | WING: 84 ... long DT; read where he was 340 when he transferred to SC and decided to trim down to get quicker. Jason Strowbridge, North Carolina Edge | HT: 6042 | WT: 267 | HAND: 9 7/8 | ARM: 32 7/8 | WING: 80 1/4 ... one of only a couple Edge guys with Edge dimensions. Zack Baun, Wisconsin LB | HT: 6024 | WT: 240 | HAND: 9 5/8 | ARM: 32 1/8 | WING: 78 1/2 ... Edge to LB... something about this kid... Kyle Dugger, Lenoir-Rhyne Safety | HT: 6006 | WT: 217 | HAND: 10 1/8 | ARM 32 3/4 | WING: 78 ... 78" wing on a 6' kid? Color me curious...

Hard to believe Zombo of all people overestimated the Steelers...

I'd have a hard time not taking a $20 flyer on Kittle. I'd be tempted on Kelce, too, but have a hard time seeing him have a big game without Mahomes having an even bigger one.

And an interesting note or two from Day 1...

lol.... I do not remember that episode...

I was just reading PFF's Day 2 notes and had to share this... On another note a Buckeye who I thought was being under rated seems to be doing himself some good...

Don't know Alexander... Did see Jones a couple times in UH games. Very athletic run blocker, but very hard to judge any OL's PassPro potential based on the Coug's passing attack. That said... I think the guy is an intriguing prospect, but I'd have a long way to go to deem him worthy of the #10.

Finally... a Dutch Sashi post I can like...

For the record I, too, hope every player attends every team activity that they are eligible to attend... ... but if OBJ and/or others don't, then I don't think it's the end of the world.

Why? He did not have control of the 53-man roster.

I was expecting a response... but got more than I bargained for... Here's my point... Athletes have worked with trainers for years thru college and the Pros, and while not all were likely "the most advanced" through it all the athletes have to have learned what has worked best for them. From this point it's a matter of dedicated adherence to that recipe. Today's athletes train year around. Most with trainers of their own choosing in groups of their own choosing. If they choose to continue to do this rather than attend OTAs, I seriously doubt they are any more prone to "soft tissue injuries".

Good stuff... That's the vibe I'm getting as well. Reaching is the worst thing a team can do. Need is a tiebreaker. Somewhere around pick #20 there may be some OL value. Dunno... depends on the degree of our College Scouting Department's alignment with our incoming GM. If it's bad enough, then I can see kicking the can to 2021. However, apparently it's clear that the Brass' expectations for 2020 aren't going anywhere except higher, so any can-kicking comes with a peril of its own.

Agree. This feels like a "Kubiak ain't coming" alternative. Plus in an age of Pass/run game coordinators it feels like the OC is optional when you have a playcalling HC.
