It's easy, and only takes a few moments.– Gunner Olszewski ran his best vertical route that I’ve ever seen from him during an early 11-on-11s period. Olszewski stemmed his route like he was going to fade up the sideline, gave Myles Bryant a little fake, then broke it off on the post for a long touchdown from Hoyer. Gunner continues to work a decent amount on the outside and in the slot and is making plays. Until Jeff Thomas gets on the field, it’s hard to envision a scenario where Gunner doesn’t make the roster at this stage.
Not having Jeff Thomas in camp has given him more opportunities with the football, and he's taken advantage of most of them...Thomas better get his ass in there, and that right soon...I have been pretty pessimistic about Gunner in the last couple of weeks because he really was really raw last year and needed an impressive jump over the offseason to compete for a roster spot. But from everything we have been reading so far I gotta say that early signs a pretty encouraging that he might be able to beat the odds.
That is unexpected and great news.
We'll leave them separated out by day instead of one giant mega-thread. Makes it a little easier to followI think the admins might wanna merge in the Day 2 discussion we already had going in the Day 1 thread. @Ross12 @Ian et al ?
Or maybe just merge this into the other and turn it into a weekly thread ? It doesn't seem like there is a crazy amount of discussion that would require separate ones for each day anyhow ?
Yea I like to hear from different people. Try to look for myself if I can.Fascinating how each of the beat guys reads plays differently. Until I saw the Gasper tweet here I only read praise for Hoyer's deep throws in the last two days.
Gunner is going to make the team again, isn't he...

Like this play here. I'm sure it makes some feel good. Nothing bad but it's incomplete during a real game. DK does a great job with his initial stem-leaning in to stack Griff but the ball is underthrown. Some defensive try to act professional keeping their guys clean and upright. Griff took that route here but it looks like a breakup in live action. Nice work by DK though. Sweet motor release off the line too. Or at least it looks like that.

Well let me help you out ...You obviously have more time to watch clips and film than I do but that doesn't seem like a sweet release to these amateur eyes. His last two steps before he accelerates downfield look fairly slow and deliberate to me. He seems to get open because Griffin doesn't lay a hand on him at the line and then can't make up the extra step because of Metcalf's 4.33 speed (despite Griffen's own elite speed).
Kind of concerning about Harry not being able to get any separation. Granted, this secondary is the best in the NFL and should make Sundays a lot easier.
I just have a bad feeling he's a massive bust. Yeah it's only day 2, but I expected him to come out of the gates showing he's the #1 guy.
This is quite unexpected from you, luuked
I always felt there is legit Jules path for him in NE if he can stay healthy.
Glad to hear he seems to be bouncing back well from injuries..
It's extremely early, but I'm surprised that Jakobi Meyers is at the bottom of the pack, and somehow Damiere Byrd is ahead of the rest. If Gunner keeps this up, he will 100% make the team given his value as a KR/PR. Meyers might actually not make it out of camp.
