2022 Rookie Camp, OTAs, Mini Camp, Mandatory Mini Camp And Training Camp

We are going to be cutting some quality safeties and WRs this year. Some other good players, too, but multiple NFL-quality safeties and WRs.

Such depth that we will be cutting quality DB's and WR's.

This is NOT what Mazz had in mind...

I feel better about the roster than I did a month ago. Sounds like both Joneses are showing out, Mitchell looks stable, Parker is going to change coverages, and Thornton is at all viable, our CB and WR corps are night and day from where they appeared to be. And the LB corps looks like it will be similarly improved.

Compare this roster to the roster we fielded in 2020 or at the end of 2019? By the looks of it, much improved...
 
I doubt any nfl worthy WRs will be cut. Running backs, maybe.
 
How many WRs do you see keeping, then?
I’m not saying a few won’t be cut, I’m saying the ones that will be are are not NFL quality.
On the other hand I see a glut of RBs on the roster who would get picked up and be solid contributors to many teams.

What YOU see from your phone inside of your Belichick hatred envelope means ZERO relative to what Belichick himself sees.

I don't think you understand this.

How in the heck can you possibly believe you know better than Belichick?

OLB?

The DBs to me are the most interesting group with the loss of Jackson and the addition of Butler. Lots of young guys that look to be pretty good but hard to tell given the offense is installing a new system.
 
Sometimes I don't understand the chatter. It's like no one looks at tape? Why was the fastest WR in the draft in the second round a bad reach? Why was the fastest WT in the draft a mid-day 3 projection? Even when it was apparent in early tc (as in knocking Joejuan Williams aside), the word was still he's too skinny, frail, whatever. Sometimes an analysis gets repeated so often it's treated as gospel and locked in forever. To the point where after demanding a fast WR for years (decades?) when we get one, people didn't like it.

Whatever. He's ours now.

Why is it? A great, and totally unanswerable question. If you seek a logical answer.

But yes, he's ours now, :)

Nobody looks at the tape. They look at the mock drafts from randos who don't watch tape, who get their information from randos who don't watch tape, but were told stuff from college coaches, and may have watched a few minutes of a senior bowl, from randos who talked to scouts, who want to spread the information they want out there, in case their team has an advantage over another team.

People still look with biased eyes. They see someone who appears skinny or small and they dismiss him. Despite the league having these kinds of 'small' players since the league began. Welker, Jules, Steve Smith SR, Sproles, Woodhead, Tolbert, Boldin etc. Too many coaches and scouts think the game is played by robots so a WR has to be 6-2, 220. If a WR or RB is not the perceived size needed, they're just dismissed. Character and actual physical strength are ignored! It's amazing. Time and time again we've seen that you cannot judge a book in the NFL by its cover. Physical strength and power can be deceptive.

It. In a nutshell.
