Someone later reported that a lot of Mac’s throws were going to the TEs. Maybe the ugly reference was to long-distance throws?

Check down Mac?

Gonzalez-Jones-Jones is a tantalizing top-3 at CB...

If by tantalizing you mean the only CBs we have available with plug & play potential if Mills stays at FS, then I agree.

Given the 25 completed passes in a row, makes me wonder if like he started off 0-5/0-7 on passes and a reporter got overly excited at dropping a tweet that'd get hate likes, only to regret it after 25 straight lmao.

He didn't post the tweet until the practice was over. It was his summary of the entire day. "Ugly day for Mac." I went to look at the tweet to see if people were dragging him in the replies but he turned replies off... Lol.

Sounded like they attempted very few deep passes.

It's so odd and counter to every other report, that I have to think it was an early note that he just forgot to edit before hitting send.

Maybe he meant "play" but he mistyped and spellcheck made it "day"....IDK.

Or maybe he's just a bad reporter. Lol

What the hell? That’s disappointing. I was hopeful he’d fill the DHarris role and spell Rham effectively. Maybe Harris & Strong are coming on and Montgomery has shown enough to make them confident they’ve got their guys? Do him a favor and waive him early to try and latch on somewhere else, or did something pop up on medical evals that they didn’t like? Strange.

FWIW, the Robinson release grants $1.6M in cap space so New England now has around $16M total.

The release is likely due to not being recovered from the injuries that allowed the Pats to sign him.

I think that’s the case but we may never know. IMO Robinson wanted to play…his heart was in it….but he still had ankle problems.

His issue was that he never deserved to be taken ahead of Keenan Allen.

Keenan Allen has been a great WR.. as his career winds down he is less available due to injury like Dobson was as a rookie...

I think we're going back to that kind of offense, which is ok with me!

Right. So "Ugly day" = not enough deep passes for one reporter's liking.

I know it's 3 months away... I'm almost certain gonzo is the real deal.. my question would be so who's on AJ brown??...

I believe they will too, and also be able to be multiple... however my thinking may change depending on the outcome of Dhop's visit!!
