Let's get some things out of the way now before things even get started...

1. Marshon Lattimore will probably run with the 2nd team. It doesn't mean he's a bust.

2. We'll see a lot of rotation at LB. The LB's on the field during base defense install may not end up being starters.

3. A WR like Justin Thomas or Dan Arnold will look like a beast. By all means, enjoy the hype... It's a long offseason after all. Just don't get too crazy with the hype!

Anything I'm forgetting?

All eyes on this group. Specifically Stephone, Klein and Teo' (in no particular order). Keep a lazy eye on Okafor as well. If 100% healthy, he could bring it.

PJ Williams ... hopefully the injuries are behind him.

Camp Beast ... s/t ace - > ADAM BIGHILL (the little man no one is chirping about yet).

The thing i wanna see is how this team deals with the huge holes in the middle of both lines. Instead of signing another qb i would have thought another center like like the former jet Nick Mangold and on the other side of the ball with nick's health concerns seems like they may wanna add a piece to the line

Like I said in the roster thread... Let's just start Anzalone. Give him all summer working with the 1's and Mike Nolan will have him playing very well.

Ellerbe is just like the defenses version of Chris Ivory.
A beast when healthy but only good for 4-6 games a year.

How the heck does little De'Vante Harris get the best of the massive Coleman in press coverage?!

That's true diz but he did restructure his contract last year I think and when he plays he's dynamic. I believe from what I've read that Anzalone is very similar to Ellerbe and will get valuable reps that Ellerbe doesn't need. Hopefully, Ellerbe can start the season and Anzalone will play in a small role that will allow him to get more snaps and grow with out trial by fire. Both of these guys can spell each other and stay healthy. Between the two of them Will should be covered nicely.

It's early, but it's doubtful Te'o, coming off achilles injury, is making this team...

Can you believe we might have good depth and competition at LB'er? In recent history we'd be planning on him starting.

Let's see what he does in full gear when it's moving at 100%.

First day of mini camp. Have patience. And why doesn't it surprise me you picked out the only negative post to expound upon?

;)

Haha I pressed like on some of the others, just irritates me when we drop ints.

Spin it this way Diz ...

At least these guys are already in the correct position to make a play. More good things could follow :smokin:.

One cost us two draft picks, the other cost us nothing.
I would hope that's how it would work out.

I wasn't expecting some good play today from De'Vante Harris. Payton says he's bulked up a bit. Arthur Maulet also made nice plays. The CB battle is deeper than I thought.
