Turner's a good athlete, not great but good... the same with Jett Bush and Ford-Dement, could see a special teams role for one or any of them.

I also like the look of Vince Blanchard the Canadien kicker they brought in, I assume he put up those numbers in incumbent weather up north.

Turner doesn't need to be great at Center. Just someone who can coordinate the line, not get bull-dozed by a NT, and can pick up a delayed blitz..

We’ll see… they’re both featherweight athletes and neither one of the two interior guys they drafted in the hopes of competing at center benched at the combine or pro day… it screams “weak.”

Not that this makes them bad prospects, it usually means they need a year of development in a pro strength and conditioning program.

The same could be said of Nate Solder and others, he showed up his sophomore season 15-20 pounds heavier in muscle… same with Brady.

Jake Andrews is a bigger stronger and better athlete at center. I get that some want to do away with all things Belichick, but Jake projects as a better player to me. We’ll see if he put in the work this off-season.
 
Tbh very low chances of any udfa making it this year. Too many drafted rookies and 2nd year rookies.
Didn't see a keeper in the bunch. Too bad, always intriguing to watch some FA make a run.
 
Posted video of Fenwick earlier. Some of these guys don’t have the money to get months of specialized training to maximize their 40 and athletic stats. Doesn’t mean if they did they would not have put up far more competitive numbers.

So far I’ve watched some on Fenwick and Jacob Warren the Tennessee tight end. Both were impressive but I’m going to try to find more to watch. Watched an interview with Warren, he presented as a very intelligent young man. Intellect might not be as important as size or speed for a pro football, but it’s still a factor I think is telling. Want to look at the safety from Troy, the LSU center, and the UTEP tackle next.

I don’t watch much video pre draft as it’s an exercise in futility. I’m more interest in looking at draftees and UDFA after the draft to see who I think can play.

I’m right and wrong in my assessments, but I quickly saw Jakobi Meyers was better than N’Keal Harry and JC Jackson was world’s better than Duke Dawson. Myles Bryant stood out one year and played here 4 seasons. But, I also loved Isaiah Zuber the same year.
 
Interesting.. 15 out of 22 from my list got UDFA contracts..
 
Makes sense. They join a franchise full of comedians.
