This is teach tape. Short, choppy steps. His feet are light and always underneath him. He has his shoulders over his toes with easy lateral hip transitions, all while keeping his eyes up. Okudah is an absolute stud. Ballerina feet. nitter.app/JustinPenik/status/123…

Gonna be a long day for me on here.
Former Pro Bowl TE Jordan Reed is retiring, sources say. A 2013 3rd-round pick by the Washington Football Team, Reed emerged as one of the game’s best receiving TEs before battling injuries. His improbable comeback with #49ers last season allowed him to walk away with no regrets.

The NFL announces that it will hold an HBCU Combine in Miami at the Dolphins Baptist Health Training Facility (March 27-29).

• Man beside me on the plane: “So, who are the Bengals taking?”
• Me: “Should definitely be Burrow. He had a great year.”
• Him: “Yeah, it’s time they replace Carson Palmer.” 🤨

Let him play centerfield and erase mistakes on the back end.
Such a smooth mover.
The movement and ball tracking skills of Malaki Starks are really shining in these drills. He was asked to play a lot of slot corner last season, but I would play him at FS. His most natural spot.

After acquiring Jaelan Phillips, the #Eagles are still projected to have eight draft picks in 2026 (1,2,3,3,4,4,5,5) – that includes potentially receiving three total compensatory picks for Milton Williams (3rd), Josh Sweat (4th) and Mekhi Becton (5th).

Cooper Kupp is a major reason why many NFL teams are now leaning more on GPS data and transitioning away from 40-yard dash times when evaluating prospects. Play speed matters most.

Isaiah Simmons position counter through 3 drives:

• Outside LB: 3
• Slot CB: 2
• Defensive End: 1
• Outside CB: 1
2 tackles, 1 TFL, 1 QB pressure, 1 pass breakup. #11 is a unicorn. There is no comparison for him.

In 2019, Josh McCown was an assistant Coach at Myers Park High School in Charlotte.
The QB there at the time? Drake Maye.
The #Vikings have named Josh McCown as quarterbacks coach and Chris O’Hara as pass game specialist.

One of the best young coaches in the NFL right now is Eagles DB coach Christian Parker. Has been instrumental in developing Patrick Surtain II and now Quinyon Mitchell, Reed Blankenship and Cooper DeJean.

Can’t count how many times I see defenses get beat by TE leak weekly. Not this defense.
Watch the communication, eye discipline and execution by everyone.
There’s not a unit on either side of the ball that I’ve enjoyed watching more on tape this year than the Ohio State defense. The physicality, attention to detail, selflessness, communication and pursuit to the ball are all fantastic.

Jerry West Executive Resume:
• Acquired Kobe from the Hornets
• Signed Shaq to the Lakers
• Drafted Klay and Draymond
• Helping hand in KD to Golden St.
• Traded for Paul George
• Signed Kawhi Leonard to the Clippers
Might be the best executive ever.

For those wondering (and if it even gets to this extreme), Shemar Stewart can re-enter the 2026 draft, but he would have to sit out a year. This would make him eligible to be selected by any team other than CIN.
A year off for a pass rusher that needs development is not ideal.
Cincinnati’s unsigned first-round draft pick Shemar Stewart now has left mandatory minicamp, per source. Stewart had been attending team activities, but without a signed contract and with the Bengals asking for certain clauses, no longer.

Penix is that older man at the YMCA that has an automatic 3-ball (his deep accuracy), but every now and then he’ll drive past you and lay it in to remind you that he can do that too even if he doesn’t rely on it often. That’s the best way I can describe it.
Underrated mobility.
