Are people going to cry if it ends up being Newhouse as our LT of the future? That is a big boy at 330lbs. Maybe we can actually gets some holes blown open on that side for a change.

I hope Sherrod wins the LG job, but I don't think he will beat out TJ. McDonald should concentrate on beating out Wells for the Center position. I've always said that Wells is too light in the ass for some of the DT's in the league. He gets by on playing with outstanding leverage, but his position could be upgraded.

Awesome notes. So far, I'm excited about Cobb, Newhouse, Lang, and our new TE's.

Ted Thompson is one hell of a general manager. Is he mentoring someone on our staff currently? I sure hope so, because he will be TOUGH to replace.

I am happy that Sherrod is getting some reps at LG, but with the way Lang and McDonald are sounding (and Lang with the game experience), I hope they get the nod over him...that is of course, if they earn it. Sherrod is still working on learning a new technique in blocking and said himself he doesn't remember the last time he has played the guard position. Makes me wonder if trying him out at left guard is a waste of time when you have guys like Lang and McDonald sitting there.

Glad to hear...
-Lang looks a lot better than last camp.
-Walden is bigger and badder.
-Raji already looks to be in mid-season form.
-Cobb is learning quick and showing it.
-Bulaga stonewalled Matthews once (just once).
-Rookie tight ends are playing well.

Anyone have anything to say about what Nagler had mentioned about our running backs? Starks being the best back on the team...

I absolutely hate not being in GB anymore for these couple weeks of the year.. nothing better than sitting back and seeing things with your own eyes. Miss that.

If Newhouse and Sherrod can both play LT, then Cliffy doesn't make the team. Lang starts at RG, McDonald backs up the interior.
And yeah, Starks and Walden are gonna light it UP.

It's like fans used to give Bigby credit for his hard hits and so many tackles. He was giving up plays with poor coverage that wrapping them up after wards... the other team still got the play and moved the yards well.

But I'm glad to hear that both Zombo and Walden look and/or seem to be playing stronger. Haven't heard it about Jones.
