Cam Robinson says Anton Harrison reminds him a lot of Jawaan Taylor. That’s good to hear.

May as well sit zay and kirk, let the rest of the squad battle it out, except for Agnew if he's already the returner seconded. anybody with a firm spot on the roster can get their reps and conditioning in practice. some minimal contact to get used to being hit again, but let the bubble guys get time on the field in the PS. I might give them a series or two just to be sure things like sideline calls are getting in the huddle ok and line adjustments, but no reason to risk injury if the team is already in sync and ready for the games that matter.

He doesn’t check him up or rub him on routes, or tackle him after a catch while trying to force a fumble? We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
Training camps just arent what they used to be to me. Sure would like to see these new generation go thru a tom coughlin camp. I wonder how the old players feel about all this bubble wrap treatment. I find it harder and harder to get excited like i used to. Maybe it just needs to ramp up idk man.
I say let him play. You cant be afraid man.

I agree, but with the money these guys are making, those days are over forever. (07-28-2023, 11:49 AM)homebiscuit Wrote: Cam Robinson says Anton Harrison reminds him a lot of Jawaan Taylor.

Strength, condition, training, and nutrition have all dramatically improved since the 90's. Plus nearly every players is much more now likely to stay in shape and training year round as opposed to cutting way down during the off season back in the 80's/90's. Yes some players didn't veg out during off season, but now it's basically impossible for them to do that and get away with it. We show less advertisements to registered users.

No reason to beat the crap out of each other in practice.
Oh man this is so good LOL. Not training camp related, but what a great joke.

If you put a guy in a preseason game for a few series, what is that worth, compared to getting the reps in training camp? I wouldn't play the starters in preseason at all. Not even the new guys.

I agree with not playing our main guys for too long, but they have to get some live game speed play in during the preseason to get ready for the real thing.

They don't need to be reminded what it's like. A lot of teams in the past have not played a single starter during preseason, and it didn't hurt them at all.

It is well documented that these units take time to settle into knowing each others assignments, tendencies, and when to bail one another out vs staying locked into their own block. Do you really not want them to play a few series together in preseason?

Junior was one of our highest rated defenders last year. He might be the starting nickel day 1 https://twitter.com/JStCyrTV/status/1685...88609?s=20 https://twitter.com/JStCyrTV/status/1685...32928?s=20 We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

Pederson could maul some teams by playing Engram and Ridley out wide with Prince and Strange inline.
