bc is doing some hardknocks type show

Haven't watched, yet. Do they sample a lot of Jay-Z songs?


Whoever came up with the idea deserves a raise.

Who is going to start at QB? Also, does Dillon start over Hilliman?

based on the BC Hard Knocks video, i'm guessing Hilliman is the named starter but all the guys will get touches. Daz has basically said as much i think.

no idea who starts at QB, but i fear the dreaded QB rotation. the way Daz has breathlessly hyped Lindstrom as the Next Big Thing, and based on him playing RT in training camp, i wonder if Wade is going to be the starter (and Lindstrom is RT to protect Wade's blindspot as a lefty).

Just finished Decide to Fly, really well done.

It's going to be Wade and they'll rotate the RBs. Lindstrom at RT tips his hand. Wade was also much better in the Spring Game, I'd be genuinely concerned if Brown was the starter.

I feel like Brown has some great physical tools. Wonder if he's just too inconsistent right now. If Hilliman sucks again this year I wonder how long Daz continues to play him

Of course Wade is going to start. Hopefully the offense rolls and Brown gets to play the 4th Q. My biggest concern is Daz running up the middle on first and second down and Wade running for his life on 3rd down. If this idiot can't figure out after 4 years that he has to let his OC run the offense then he will be out of a job in 3 months.

I'm only working on what I've seen but Brown is inconsistent.

Wade's deep ball is weak but he's good at everything else

Wade looked to be the exact opposite of Towles. Accurate, but without the pretty deep balls.

Hilliman is a preseason all conference choice by usa today.

so now it's:

Montiero - Schmall (?) - Baker - Lazard (?) - Lindstrom


Did Elijah Johnson get hurt ?


He had a knee injury during spring practice... guessing he's still recovering. http://bceagles.com/news/2017/4/6/football-spring-practice-report-april-6.aspx?path=football&mobile=skip


daz's best friend sully said it was an acl tear:

Addazio says that the Eagles will not commit to a standard five-man offensive line that plays together in a single unit, but instead will rotate with seven guys--eight if last year's starting left guard Elijah Johnson can return from an ACL tear this season.

landry ranked #4 by mcshay

http://www.espn.com/nfl/draft2018/insid ... -nfl-draft

4. Harold Landry, OLB, Boston College

Grade: 93

Landry led the nation with 16.5 sacks and seven forced fumbles last season. He's an explosive edge rusher with terrific burst, bend and closing speed coming off the edge. I have slight concerns about his length and frame -- he's listed at 6-foot-3, 250 pounds -- but he should be an effective NFL defender and projects as an every-down player.

Landry also made the ESPN Pre-Season All American team. Interestingly, no ACC players were selected for offense but 6 were selected on D.

agreed - the rotation structures have proven dramatic failures in the past... and o-line seems to be the stupidest place to instill rotations.

I don't like this either because it is telling me that Addazio can't settle on 5 that are clearly better than the others which may mean they all suck (kind of like ALL the QBs in 2015 & 2016)
