The hype on Noel has been huge since before the draft. I think he could start the season faster than Higgins if he gets enough opportunities. The comparison to McConkey is a good one. Supposedly, based on college tape, what separated them was McConkey ran crisper, more precise, (more deceptive) routes. That is something that can be coached-up in the NFL, over time.
Would be a huge win if he became McConkey. Ladd is an elite athlete who also is a freakish route runner. Noel is an elite athlete who would be a stronger run after catch guy with his strength, if he comes close to Ladd in route running that’s an elite player
Off topic, but I see more players wearing those concussion pads on their helmets and I am glad, watching all the camps on Saturday every team had a ton of players using them....................function over looks and I am glad to see more players wear them
So Ersery might be kind of good. Doing well against arguably the best pass rushing duo, especially WAJ who’s motor is 100 24/7, could be a positive sign from the rook
It honestly seems stupid not to wear them this day and age, even in the regular season. Having extra protection from brain injuries over looking cool seems like a no brainer to me.
We need to play someone else to get CJ’s confidence up. Pretty hard against the best secondary in the league.
LT looks pretty suspect to me. I’m glad we made the Tunsil trade, but our OC is going to have to scheme around our LT until Ersery is ready in a year or two. Cam and Brown are really iffy.
I really hope this is the year Metch comes up big, love the story but he has to be able to contribute. One thing that is VIP IMO, is that this offense practices daily with one of the best D`s in all of football which is a great test.................iron sharpening iron, its corny but so true in this situation
