Sherrod.

I don't know if I'd say Sherrod. My vote would go to Quarless. Q hasn't really taken the TE job with authority. Hell, he might not even make the 53...
quarless for me too, for the same reasons pugger gave
also, burnett
guy should have been playing for his roster spot. instead he does nothing, the gets hurt and misses tons of time. and insteadof winning or proving he should be starting, hne wins it by default because of the injury. i would say hyde for sure, haha and maybe richardson all looked better in preseason then burnett did last year
Sherrod? I think he will continue to progress if he stays healthy.Quote:

Quarless has been invisible.
Perry hasn't exactly flashed.
Hubbard, Bradford, Goodson, Thornton are all disappointments, although as rookies this is a lower grading scale
Perry has got to be on that list.
yeah. neal looks like he's stepped it up a notch with peppers coming in taking away some of his playing timeQuote:

Take a look at the draft, you got two glaring candidates there.
But of course it is early in their careers.
Quarless has been solidly UNSPECTACULAR in this camp. Sherrod concerns me if he has to start in a pinch at LT. he looked like a walking turnstile.Quote:

Perry is a disappointment. I looked for him to be healthy and make a step up. He really hasn't, but I haven't given up completely. Mike Neal didn't make an impact until his fourth season, Perry is in his third. The pressure is off him now, maybe he can learn in a more limited role as a backup used in specific situations.
Quarless didn't make any noise in camp, but I think in each preseason game he had a play or two that was kind of nice. He hasn't gotten back to where he was before his knee injury, and if he doesn't this year he probably never will. A disappointment I suppose, but again the expectations weren't that high to begin TC with.
It is hard to be disappointed in Burnett, the starters played so little there wasn't much to see. He sat out a few practices. I'll reserve judgement on him until we see how he plays as the season unfolds. If he doesn't start to make an impact, I will be disappointed for sure.
Not a disappointment, but something to watch out for. My impression is that Masthay was more inconsistent than in the past. I'm not worried, but I will be paying attention to his early season performances.
Big disappointments red.Quote:

Sure. But there was a lot of nothing in between and he didn't go against many starters until maybe the Chiefs game.Quote:

In the first three games Perry was better than people claim. He had a strip sack and a couple of TFLs. He isn't Clay Matthews, but he did as much as Mike Neal, but I guess he's everbody's whipping boy now.
He did, he is not a washout. But he needs another move, too many ineffectual snaps.Quote:

That's about my take on the guy, too.Quote:

His strength is definitely that bull rush. He's a big bastard and he's coming hard every pass rush. You don't have to plan much to stop him, but you gotta get him blocked and that ain't super easy. I know what Harv means about not being as down on him as the herd is, but we could get more from him.
I'd like to see more, but I'll take what he gives for now.

Thirded. I was hoping for him to show big against 2s and 3s. He didn't.Quote:

McCarren noted he did have 2 good penetrations while he was in there. Doesn't make up for his camp, but maybe a glimpse of his future.Quote:

This is a fine nomination; I was never fond of this guy from the start so he was not on my list. I did buy into the Bradford hype so disappointed in him.Quote:

That's funny, I noticed it too. He's a vet though, I chalk it up to trying something different, or fine tuning a wrinkle. When the bright lights are on he'll go with what he knows works.Quote:

He looked OK early, then fell apart late.
Masthay was solid until the birth of his child. He seemed to have a couple of poor games and then lost his confidence.
