i was at mini camp last Tuesday and I saw Montgomery struggle with the basic drills. He dropped a few passes and on the between the dummy drills he had to repeat it a few times.

I played Bill Billacheat and did a video lol

Yes I got yelled at for doing video 😝

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

This dude is cut from stone and has a Stanford education. I know he isn't going to break the rotation this year(barring injury), but I think he has something for the future.

Hopefully, he can improve his hands. That's not an easy task. A receiver without good hands isn't worth much, and one with bad hands is worthless.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

Someone said he was muffing punts in OTAs, and that Abby had moved in front of him there.

Also in a college game against each other, I think CB Randall as a punt gunner stole a punt from Montgomery after Montgomery bobbled the catch and it hit the ground... Randall pushed Monty out of the way and got the ball.

KO returns is wide open!

Also I've read RB Neal has been worked on kick returns as well and have read he looks pretty good catching the ball as well.

We probably got a glimpse of the perceived depth chart by the order the WR went:
Cobb
Nelson
Adams
White
Janis
Abby
Pinkard
Coxsen
Hunt
Montgomery
Collins

Of course Monty got a late start.

I like Texas' idea of Monty playing 3rd down back; but it'll be too much for him to master as a rookie.

I really like White, he's shown a ton of effort and in past preseason games has made some great catches on questionable throws, I was slightly surprised no one claimed him on waivers last year. White probably isn't a special talent, but I think some teams out there might be worse #5 WR and maybe even #4 WRs than him.

I find Monty as a RB interesting idea ad they have used Cobb there and tried Dorsey there at least for a play, but I also sounds like RB Neal is looking much better and catches the ball extremely smoothly and I've heard some talks he might be used in a special packages like they wanted to use Franklin in a couple years ago.

I would find it hard to believe they would keep Myles over Abby or JJ.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."
