I was disappointed in the WRs. The First string OL was credible though.

"OL credible."

This is everything.

His name is Trent Scott.

The only sack I remember was the one on Kordell...but then, that's Kordell, who still needs to learn to step into the pocket...

Not to pat myself on the back, but here was my response in the Draft Pick thread on Easton.

Looks about right? Amiright?

I have watched Easton Stick play multiple times. 2 of those 3 losses came to my Jackrabbits.

He's good. How good? IDK. But Wentz went down with a thumb injury his Senior year and Stick came in and QBed the Bison for 6-8 games his freshman year. They didn't miss a beat. He even played the FCS playoff games up to the title game when Wentz came back. So he's got some moxie about him.

He's an athlete. Runs the ball very effectively. Very effectively. NDSU used him on designed runs a lot.

He's like a flanker that completes 60% of his passes. Pretty accurate thrower.

He did run a pro style offense. But the Bizun probably run the ball more than any team around. They are a power smashmouth football team. Lots of 2 TE sets and under center work.

NDSU is kinda like USC when Leinert was there. They are more talented and deeper than basically everyone they play. So I don't know how he'll be in the NFL.

He's a tough cookie. Runs hard. Plays hard. Very difficult to sack.

Bolts look OK at backup QB.

I think last season may have been the worst situation for a backup since PR became the starter. Geno is horrible, but I had hopes he could have stepped in for a game or two in a bad situation.

To be fair Rivers has really only had 4 backup QBs. Volek and Clemens were solid backups. Clipboard Jesus was entertaining. Gene just isn't very good at all.

Taylor has always been a good QB. And the Stick kid was impressive.

I like the explosion from Ekeler and the hops from JJackson. And they are great receivers too. This one-two punch will do serious damage.

Really the 1st time in the Rivers era I could say that if Rivers can't play we can still win.

Which ones? MW has a great catch

Which ones? MW has a great catch

I had expected to see something good from Scott after hearing how good he looked in camp so far but saw nothing impressive as a WR or returner from him.

[Formula 21]

MW and HH looked good, but the rest? Meh.
