I’m not at training camp (I live in NYC), but some of my thoughts from the reporting:
Rookies are playing well, I really loved our draft, and it seems like they are good fits.
Henderson is going to be a problem for the opponents. I saw several people say he was this year’s Jahmyr Gibbs, and I felt that wasn’t an accurate comparison. Gibbs is more shifty, and a great receiving back, Henderson uses his straight line speed. But I see that the Pats are using Henderson A LOT in the passing game, so now I get the comparison. Hopefully they can get him 15+ touches a game. He’s truly a threat to go the distance in n every play.
Williams has that deep speed, he’s going to have to be accounted for. While teams will be chasing Diggs and Douglas all over the field, they’ll have to account for Williams’ speed. And despite not being big, seems to be a good contested catch guy.
Supposedly Campbell has been solid, hopefully he fixes our LT issue. I think he’s gonna be really good. I’m happy we took him in the draft.
Jared Wilson supposedly has been really good filling in at C and Guard. He’s very talented and athletic. I can see him getting a lot of playing time this year.
Hearing good things about safety Woodson, plus we got our new kicker and place kicker in the draft, among others. Just a really good draft.
Love what I’m hearing about Maye. Not every practice is gonna be perfect, but he’s learning a new offense, a becoming an excellent leader, and doesn’t turn 23 until late August. As exciting he was as a rookie, he had some things to clean up. He seems to be making a nice 2nd year jump.
Lots of positives so far. And having a good coaching staff, just the cherry on top.
