+2.

Kinda hard for blockzilla to make an impact from the tub or stationary bike Hadn’t practiced in damn near a month.

He’s likely headed to IR.

I hope they can bring back Shaq Davis. IMO he’s worth developing.

Probably because none of the others could do what he does best as well as him.

We don't see what the coaches see on a daily basis. How are the others in the classroom? Do they know their assignments? Are they willing and able to play the support role? Are they willing or able to perform those rubs and/or block downfield? Are they able to make that catch as a 3rd or 4th option when the need does arise? Let's not forget that Tre'Quan quietly had a better catch percentage than Olave last season.

Tre'Quan isn't a #1 or #2 type of guy. He never was. Not many are. He was thrown into that role, however, because of injuries and didn't put up the fan expected numbers. From all indications he does, however, fill the role required with the current staff very well ... when healthy. I expect that he'll be placed on IR and return at some point sooner than later.

After watching AT Perry and Shaq block last week left me with the feeling that 3Q would in fact be back....and he is. He is probably going to IR but his blocking gives us better YAC. The thing is, it's hard to block when you're in the hot tub.

Surprised-thought RB Merrifield would make it over Merritt for 3rd RB. Hopefully, makes Practice Squad if he hasn't already.

Personally speaking as an amateur, wouldn't have risked Jaylon Smith nor DT Lalos to waivers. Front office knew how to gamble up and down the PS which was nice to see.

Nice to have top quality back ups at DT, LB, Safety and Corner. Even WR depth looking decent. Weird we don't have that with all the Guards after all the anguish in recent years.

Anguish resulting in 1st and 2nd round picks for interior OL, reassigning early 1st rounder Peat (a mistake I called a panic move at the time). Nice to finally see 4th rounder toward it this year.

Fix Guard already. Pay someone already. We need a Senio Kelemete swing guy again.

We need the 3Quan that balled after his shouting match with Jameis on the sideline. That 3Quan was a keeper. One could argue he was without a doubt our best WR to close out that season. He made some unbelievable grabs.
I could stand up for that guy. But after the season ended he reverted back to this guy. Falling to the ground, getting injured and missing most of the season.

Jaylon Smith wasn't waived. He was released as a veteran player. He couldn't be claimed. He was free to choose where he wanted to go.

And, yes, Merriweather has been placed on the practice squad.
