Sounds like Elliss is having a really nice camp and he flashed a smidge last year in my eyes.
I’m already more worried about safety.

They’re not good. They also cost nothing and play positions for which they have absolutely no depth. Zero complaints. But also zero expectations.
Look at Kempski’s latest 53 man projections. He has 3 true LBs making the team. They had to do something. Maybe one of them plays well enough to be a guy who can take situational snaps and not totally kill you. That would be welcome.
Oh that’s bad too. But I can at least see a road to having 3-4 guys who won’t kill you. And options like Ringo who can do it in a pinch.
They’ll only have 2 LBs on the field quite a bit, but they have the same questions as the Safeties plus having no one who has a prayer behind them.
The thing I’m really interested in is what they think Edmunds can do. Kempski specifically pointed out he’s gotten some run at both the 2nd and 3rd levels of the defense.
Do you think they'll use Nolan Smith in a hybrid type role a bit more to help compensate?
Kempski said:On the QB3 front, Tanner McKee has done a few nice things, but I can't recall him airing one yet in team drills yet. He has the arm strength. Let's see it.
Every steeler fan I’ve ever seen comment on him, pretty much unanimously mentions him at dimebacker.Oh that’s bad too. But I can at least see a road to having 3-4 guys who won’t kill you. And options like Ringo who can do it in a pinch.

Eagles Pro Shop website (aka through Fanatics). It’s not a knock off. It’s just the suit quality that they made jerseys of now.Where did you get this? I have rolled the dice on knock-offs before and have been pretty happy with the success rate.
Move Jack to RB.
Still one of the most ridiculous things I saw in college football. Right there with Ahmad Brooks returning kicks at UVA.
Oh damn that sucks. I haven't bought anything since Fanatics took over. BarfEagles Pro Shop website (aka through Fanatics). It’s not a knock off. It’s just the suit quality that they made jerseys of now.
day in day out..people come to my store..browse the beer aisle for a good 5 minutes and end up picking that shit any wayThey know their audience. Those are your guys.
Bucs are gonna regret going cheap on a QB this season...Baker is not gonna lead us to ..well anything but a better draft pick
Right now, Ghost is locked into FS. Seems they are content to rotate Wallace in deep looks and Edmunds in dime as a LB, which makes a lot of sense with Edmunds being a bigger safety and better in the run game than the pass.They’ve tried it in camp, so I think that’s a good bet. Desai is a true Fangio-school guy, so this wouldn’t mean as rigid of a role as it would have last year. They won’t be afraid to line Smith up off the ball and send him anyway. You’re going to see A LOT more Stunts. A LOT.
I should also mention that I think people are writing K’Von Wallace off too quickly. I absolutely loved that pick. He did not fit Gannon’s approach at all. That doesn’t mean he’ll be a star. But I think he can still be an NFL player.

With that said, I cant imagine Howie is done at S. I personally dont see Wallace as a starting caliber safety and think hes best reserved for a backup/special teams role. A few guys I am watching closely this preseason as potential trade targets:
Antoine Winfield Jr - lets get it out of the way that this is a pipedream, but hes in the last year of his contract and the bucs are rebuilding...maybe they listen?
Budda Baker/Kevin Byard - I dont think we can afford what they want to get paid, but they are damn good players and disgruntled would both be great additions as players. still have 2 years remaining so they'd have to be ok with playing on their current deals with us.
Jeremy Chinn - similar to winfield, doubt hes going anywhere but the Panthers are very young and hes in the last year of his deal
These are the only guys I think would be clear upgrades over what we currently have.
I love it. I wish they still had Dan around.
