I have to admit that he did look good for a rookie, and the man appears to be HUGE. sort of a German Jevon Kearse.

I'm all for bumping this Sea-Bass thread! I'm really looking forward to this season....

I'm really liking our draft picks early on, should be great seeing them develop!

It's hard to say which rookie will contribute the most - mostly because so many of them are showing us signs. Good draft could push team to desired level. Miam.

The thing I noticed when I went back...Vollmer is pretty quick for a dude his size...

Maybe the funniest play I have seen in a while was when he went screaming up the field looking for someone to hit but came up empty. He sprinted 10 yards and then looked around like 'Huh?'

Moved well for a big man.

He looked quick in his little workout video way back. I think they stole a left tackle.

I have no problem with Light's work ethic, but i don't think he was ever a very good pass protecting LT. Graham was almost a lineman his last couple years and i think there have been deficiencies here and there since.

SeaBass seems like a natural who can only get better IMO.

I do think you are on to something there.
