Sigh, Hope Seomalu doesn't have a lingering inury

I believe Anderson is also a primary backup at tackle too.

DK has been talking about using some of the cap space for a jack of all trades backup lineman for weeks, now that’s gotta be on the list with WR2, FS

I don’t understand why we couldn’t have used this estimated 25 million of cap space early in free agency instead of now hoping to get lucky that another team cuts a guy we can use or is willing to do a trade this late. I know Watts signing gave us even more space but there was still plenty to use much earlier

For a team that looks to want to win now there are some big holes

I think we fans feel we need a WR2, but I think the organization has satisfied their appetite in that regards.

You could be right, I just hope they really put at least 2 tight ends out there and use them, we heard all about tight end usage going up last year with Smith as OC but it didn’t seem all that significant and impactful to me

Also just like last year with Pickens, if Metcalf gets hurt for an extended period it will be a huge problem due to depth

Fully agree.

DK sports brought up that many seem to forget about Woods. DK said Woods is preparing as if he is a starter and that’s the mentality needed.

Training camp will sort a lot out as I’m anxiously awaiting the battles.

Austin can’t step in if DK metcaf goes down, Woods can riun the entire route tree.

Is the injury lingering from last season? Never understood how a player shows up for camp with a non-football related injury, when being in shape is how you earn a living.

I can throw my back out sneezing, but I'm 2-3 times their age and live on social security and pensions.

I didn’t see it mentioned earlier but DK said yesterday he was sitting out all spring too.

Curious it’s being called a non-football injury

I'm looking for the quote from Coach Tomlin. Obviously you're putting monkey poop out there on the wall of speculation...

Not sure about Woods, his career peaked from 2018-2020.

I hear yaz, but he is in the mix and one c an hope. He will be good depth if that is all he comes away with. We are not asking for a WR1, we are asking for a less needed WR2 that can spread the D. Austin will partake as well but the inside scoop says Austin can’t run the full route tree whereas Woods can (thus the depth for DK metcaf)

My $1.39 worth.

Just as they were last season. Go figure.
 
Minor injuries and reported as such. Nothing to see here.
