    DGB and Hunter... what is going on with these two this off season. How in the world has DGB not grasped the playbook after a year? Its so amazing to me that we could potentially have two #1 Wrs that could be matchup nightmares for opponents. Yet one seems to be a bit mentally slow and the other is basically a child in a league of grown men. Pathetic...

    I know Hunter is a bust, but have I missed something about DGB? He had a halfway decent rookie season and has stayed out of trouble.

    Hunter shouldn't even make the roster.

    1. Wright
    2. DGB
    3. Matthews
    4. Douglas
    5. Sharpe or McBride

    Mainly talking about this off season how he is making mistakes that he shouldnt be making by now. Add to the fact that Sharpe is taking first team reps its a bit disappointing

    I'm very hopeful for DGB, but Hunter probably won't (and shouldn't) make the team. I like him as a person, but he just hasn't panned out.

    For DGB, didn't he spend his last year of Uni out of football? And then missed some of the OTA/TC last year as well? If that is correct, then this could be considered a 'semi-rookie' year even.

    But I expect a lot of improvement nonetheless. And if the offense clicks, he should come down very strong towards the end and then explode next year.

    My rankings...

    I wasn't at all impressed last year with Harry, at times even Hunter looked better. But he is familiar with this new OC, so maybe that helps? Wright just isn't a #1. I grew to stop trusting OTA/TC buzz, but I'm excited for Sharpe nonetheless. I don't really know anything about this Mathews guy either...

    For me the most important thing is that DGB is #1. Again, he's got the most potential and plays to his size. He's fast, strong, can jump, catch, etc... Marcus called him a 'beast' for a reason. He needs as many snaps with Marcus in games to see if they can become stars together. And I don't see anyone on the roster who can do what he can as of now....

    2 - Wright
    Not willing to give up on him, but I'd still prefer he plays in the slot more than on the outside

    3 - Matthews / Harry / Sharpe
    Can't really decide on the order... Its really a toss up and who plays best in OTA/TC/Preseason leading up to gameday.

    DGB is a DE trying to play WR, no one should be surprised he's trailing the others at this point. He's useful when there's contact tho so he's worth putting time into right now.

    Im a DGB fan but FTR, these types often fail to amount to much.

    Everyone step off the ledge....DGB still nursing a hammy and we knew he would be raw...Now, I agree he should know the playbook better etc...but his size alone will work to his advantage. Hunter sucks and is going bye bye....KW is KW and what you see is what you get. I am more interested in Matthews and Sharpe honestly....Hey, if he beats them out, he deserves it...and the beauty part is, we didn't give anything up to get him. There is still hope for DGB.
