2017 Training Camp - Day 5 (8/1/17)

Garoppolo nickname pick six??? Think we could get a conditional 5th for him while he's hot??

Eric Rowe showed a lot of promise last year I think he morphes into Talib's territory this year with playing time...he has excellent Size for a CB.

You have to like his size. Very happy to have him on the team. A good 2nd year jump would be awesome for our secondary. Just missed making that ridiculous Julio Jones catch an incompletion (jumped a little early, if he times it right he tips the ball out of bounds).

I am hesitant to mention any Talib comparison. Talib is one of the best in the NFL. Also as someone mentioned last year was his 3rd and now he is going into his 4th. He will likely improve very little if at all at this point.

Edit: Just to be clear if he doesn't improve or improves very slightly I would be happy as long as he doesn't go backwards. He played very solid football last year when asked to do things he could. We must except not every player will be a super star. Having good starters like Rowe is important even if all he is is a good starter.

Uh oh...

I'm seeing reports that the secondary and LB's are having a great day today. Rowe's performance is again drawing praise. This is becoming consistent for him now. Gilmore also has looked impressive.

He is damn fast.

Yeah he couldn't play Defense any better and that Julio Jones is just the Great Julio Jones. Rowe plays Big WR's very well and last year I realize that certain QB's didn't throw to their intended targets because of Rowe's length. Lets have a moment of silence for the Eagles who said he couldn't play.

Yeah, even with all the praise he's been getting, I don't expect anything even approaching Talib territory for him.

Jordan Richards better seize this opportunity! This is his time to show that he deserves more time on the field this season.

Loved Rowe coming out of the draft told my Eagle friends they had a player.
My Eagles friends still don't comprehend the Rowe trade.

I was listening to WIP the other day n they were bemoaning Pat Chung!

Really want to see TE James O'Shaughnessy in the games to see how he performs in our Offense. I really hope there is more to him than on ST's need suitable back-ups for Gronk not just one.

Is he more of a pass catcher or blocker? I don't know much about him.

I always liked his play the little I saw. Just I don't see how you take any of the top 3 guys off the field if all are healthy.

I believe he ran the fastest 40 at the combine in 2016.

***Edit, 3rd fastest time overall, fastest for DBs. Ran a 4.33. Fastest overall ran a 4.31.

James O'Shaughnessy seems to end up behind the Good/Great ones Travis Kelce now Gronk. He moves very well I am not so sure about his hands though.

Tom Brady leads all players in merchandise, four Cowboys in top 10

Fun little fact. Dallas is such a powerhouse in the fan/marketing department. I doubt we ever catch them in total fans or national attention in the long term.

I said it a couple of times in other threads. He always needs 2 attempts to catch a pass. In this case even when a CB is involved

Harris & Freeny taking a lot of extra LB reps with Hightower on PUP. Might come down to one or the other on the 53.

Harris is a lock for the 53. Freeny is on the bubble. Big difference
