Looking up Connor's dad now.

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

Wow.

I had no clue about his dad. I'd heard people bring him up but I didn't look it up myself.

 

[northoaklandfc]

May or may not be fair to Connor but his dad popping off at the mouth on Twitter cost his son millions of dollars. Been reading his pops was named as a red flag in organizational circles. When these athletes and their people gonna learn that social media is not a good look.

Karl said that JDR picked #42 for him specifically because of Ronnie Lott.

Sounds good to me

Jihad looking really good at rookie camp from what I've read.

 

[raid or die]

did we just drop shelby harris?

 

[laker4lifeman]

Yeah team is finally making hard cuts

 

[raider5]

This DLine got way to many players...lol Probably did a favor to him more by cutting him now rather than later...

Yup Shelby Harris can play he'll find a spot somewhere. Can't believe we're in a position to cut that caliber of player before training camp even begins.

This is the luxury of the draft this year. You can now round the edges to your vision and production.

I wouldn't call it a hard cut. He never made an impact on the team.

 

[raider5]

I think we're all just still under the same mind frame of this team like 3-4 years ago where Shelby Harris would be a starter on our squad 

 

[sohi 23]

I only see like 10 open spots on the team. Back in the day they're might've been 10 locks to make the team lol.

 

[albooboo]

I think Harris was cut due to Moore signing and Cowser has impressed the team during rookie mini camp.

 

[sohi 23]

DL locks: Edwards Jr, Williams, Ellis, Ward, Autry, Orr
EDGE locks: Mack, Irvin, Aldon, Calhoun

Fighting for spots: Cowser, Moore, McGee, Latham

I see them keeping 10-11 DL/edges. Aldon is suspended for the first half of the year so we have to keep that in mind. They'll probably keep 2 out of the above 4.

 

[albooboo]

I would list Irvin as a LB and replace him with Moore or Cowser.

 

[raider5]

DL locks: Edwards Jr, Williams, Ellis, Ward, Autry, Orr
EDGE locks: Mack, Irvin, Aldon, Calhoun
 

Seeing this written down for the first time 

 

[albooboo]

Can't wait to get a full season of a healthy and motivated Rio.

I think Ward becomes a starter by mid season by replacing Ellis. I feel he will have the same type of impact Rio gave us last.
