Goooooooood morning ThePhins.com...Day 2 camp updates thread.

Having re-read some of the camp notes, I think you've also got to consider the idea that Jared Odrick is going to rotate both DT spots as well.

The starting job is apparently rotating day-to-day, with Odrick/Starks being paired up, and I forgot whom but I believe it was a player who mentioned that Odrick can play 6, 3-, and 1-technique positions. They do 1-technique alignments in a Nickel package, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's base package too. Odrick was primarily a 1-technique in college, and I don't think he's a bad fit to play the position albeit more Jay Ratliff than Paul Soliai.

It would also give them a bit better flexibility next offseason.

 

Seems like Thomas had his surgery sooner than Jordan, who waited til after the combine. Thomas had his on Feb 7, 2013. Jordan approximately March 1.

 

We can only hope he's a late bloomer my fingers are crossed but I'm not going to hold my breath waiting on him to blossom.

 

Do you have the same kind of scooter as Howard Wolowitz?

 

Egnew only made the active roster for one game last year and had a grand total of zero catches for the 2012 season. He now seems to be the fourth string TE, behind Sims, Keller, and Clay.
I just don't see him being on the roster when the regular season begins. If it were to come down to keeping Egnew or McNutt for the 53 man roster, the obvious choice would have to be McNutt.

 

Because he was unimpressive as a rookie, so this obviously means he must be a bust.

 

I know you are a glutes man, but a body part that always grabs my eye, is the traps. Wake has as impressive a set of traps as I've ever seen on a football player.

 

Cut a very good player when we have plenty of cap room? Makes no sense. Soliai is more likely to be resigned next year than Starks. Soliai and Odrick are probably the starting DTs in 2014.

 

No.

 

He did have 3.5 last year

 

If he stays quiet then it will die a death and be forgotten. Thats the way it goes nowadays. He wore a hat and made a dumb call. It will pass.

 

As it should. I am glad our Pouncey did not bow to public pressure and apologize for something that he did that was totally legal and of his own volition.

 

Apparently some form of rookie hazing begins tonight, I wonder if we'll see the "effects" during tomorrow's practice, though I doubt they do the hair dying again.

 

Nothing beats the guy with the ***** shaved into the back of his head and the look Philbin gave him

 

Josh Samuda.

"Way to represent a first class organization, Samuda."

That segment of Hard Knocks was most righteous, to use Bill and Ted speak, because it gave us that awesome Philbin gif.

 

Is he just a stud in between the 20's or is he catching any TD's?

 

Is there another thread for today? Only reason is I'm curious how Martin did against Vernon with pads on. While I trust in the belief Philbin & staff and Ireland have shown in Martin at LT, I still feel this is the biggest question mark of how successful our season will be.

Edit: Duh! Was in today's thread and got into this one when I switched from laptop to iPad! Got some reading to do, might be up late.

And BTW thank you! To all who have contributed so much great intel on TC so far, this site is so awesome, because of its posters, my family, of whom I am very proud!

 

I don't even care about the fantasy football aspect I just want to hear some reports about Hartline or anyone dominating the red zone. I have hope that Keller and Binns can be efficient there.
