-Returners? all of them = terrible. Better sort this out Kilam or fire his ass.
-Drew Tate, not so impressive but he did have drop balls as well. He'll be fine.
-Didn't focus too much on the O-line, if someone can comment in them.
Work in progress!

I am not sure Huf will cut Simpson but he definitely need to give Lobendahn another look and see. I definitely think McCune will be in the lineup on either MLB or DLine.
I am still wondering and questioning why they re-signed Arjei Franklin. I did not like the way he played the past few season and I thought this is a year they will give Parker more time to play. Also, they signed Chris Bauman and they still have good Canadian receivers that can play his position. I agree Franklin should be cut.
I love watching this guy Bo Levi Mitchell. He looks so calm and poised. I was also rooting for Sinopli to do well. One of them will be the 3rd stringer but whoever lose out on their battle for 3rd, i hope he stick around in practice roster instead of letting him go.
Walls, Tucker, McDaniel and even Talley didn't do much. We all know Taylor, maybe Talley will be in the lineup and I think McDaniel and Coker might be the 3rd and 4th option. The first two Walls and Tucker might be packing it in after this weekend.
What can we say about Drew Tate? Hmmm.. it's a pre-season and he is still rusty but I am still not sold on him. I am not saying he shouldn't be our starter but i hope he plays like the last 3 games last season and stays consistent during the season or else we will have a long summer.
OLine nothing much to say. I think they played well enough considering none of the starters played except for probably deWitt. I guess he struggled a bit at the beginning but he had a solid outing after.
I'll say Work in Progress especially on Tate and the offense. So far I like the defense last night and the special team coverage was good except for a couple of plays, one TD return and the other one where Maver save the TD.
