Sean Taylor was one of the most polarizing athletes to ever grace an NFL field, let alone wear the burgundy and gold. THIS is what the team unveiled today in his honor? A jersey on a mannequin with wire arms and soccer cleats? This is absolutely disgusting. (via @Sam4TR)

Colorado WR LaJohntay Wester is a nightmare to cover. Electric acceleration & change of direction ability. Creative OC is going to have a field day scheming him touches.

Non-DROY nominee Mike Sainristil: • 93 tackles (2nd among all rookies) • 4 INTs (2nd) • 9 PBUs (2nd) • 61.5 reception % on 96 targets DROY finalist Cooper DeJean: • 51 tackles • 0 INTs • 5 PBUs • 71.1 reception % on 83 targets DeJean had a hell of a year but what Sainristil did kicking out from nickel, behind a league average front 7, has been massively undervalued.

Michigan WR Roman Wilson operates on a “no block, no rock” attitude. Said catching TDs is “cool”, but doing the dirty work means just a little more on the outside.

LSU WR Kyren Lacy is going to be a nightmare cover in 1s at the Senior Bowl. Such a creative route runner with size/speed/hands to compliment an extremely intriguing skill set. Yet another name out of the LSU WR pipeline…

Illinois WR Pat Bryant said he operates with a “no block, no rock” attitude & enjoys getting after it in the ground game. Also said football is “all he knows” and is a guy whose willingness to do it all separates him. “I’m just a ballplayer man…” On if he’s participating tomorrow in tests/drills — “I didn’t come here for nothing, I’m here to put on a show.”

Washington has their signal-caller of the future in Jayden Daniels, but they also found their franchise LT Brandon Coleman in the ‘24 class. Heck of a day against Brian Burns and co in what was his largest workload (62 snaps) so far this fall👇

Can’t say enough good things about Patriots rookie Will Campbell in his first five starts (199 pass pro snaps): • 9 pressures (1 in the last two weeks combined) • 1 sack (none since W1) • 4.5% pressure rate Patriots found their future at LT.

Washington brought in Laremy Tunsil for a reason, they drafted Josh Conerly Jr for a reason, they paid Tyler Biadasz for a reason, they paid John Bates for a reason, they drafted Ben Sinnott for a reason, and they go jumbo with Trent Scott often for a reason. Get out of pistol, get under center, and run through someone’s face and win a ballgame. Taking a 3-1 to a 3-6 just on pre-snap alignment, regardless of it being in the rain and situation, is just ridiculous football.
64

Laremy Tunsil in his last three starts (97 pass pro snaps): • 2 pressures • 0 QB hits • 0 sacks • 2.7% pressure rate Playing at an All-Pro level.

All Commanders TE John Bates does is line up game after game, year after year and just flat out kick people’s ass. One of, if not the, premier in-line blocker at the tight end spot in football. Outstanding watching him do the dirty work.

Jayden Daniels is a flat out bonafide superstar & a future MVP candidate in this league. Much much more than just a rookie having a hell of a year. Unbelievable stuff at the QB position from a first-year player. What a ballplayer.
