On that second tweet, Melo said on hsi and Graver's podcast that if Dike can do the job over Proche he could see where it'd make sense to jettison Proche in favor of Restrepo even if he was technically outperforming him as a receiver. The thinking is why keep a journeyman JAG over a developmental rookie with potential and a connection to with the QB?

 

But I'd say that principle probably applies a lot more to Jefferson since he doesn't even play on special teams. Restrepo is at least getting a try out there. If Proche and Restrepo can both play on special teams what point is there to keep Jefferson since both Ayomanor and Oliver are in that role already? Seems to me he's much more the odd man out.

 

So Ridley, Lockett, Ayomanor, Dike, Oliver, Proche, and Restrepo if we're keeping 7?

Some of us said he was always going to be a RT. 

 

Was fine to wait and give the OL coach the benefit of the doubt but anybody who said he was a right tackle and playing left tackle wasn't going to work - toot that horn.

 

I'm interested to see how the OL fares this year because overall success didn't seem a whole lot different (I can't assess proper technique within a scheme ... and hardly anyone else can either) with the "OL guru." But he's had a little bit of time and shuffle to get more guys to play his style. I'm expecting a big step forward and fearing it just doesn't materialize and then we have to question what the hell is going on .

I know that the boilerplate response to any preseason concerns is "It's just preseason" but is anyone else starting to be concerned with reports surrounding Zeitler's performance in camp so far? 

I'm hoping it's him adapting to being more of a technician and learning Coach Bill's tactics.. Hance is hurt currently, and I'd love to see how Rupcich is doing..

The Tennessee Titans wrapped up their eighth practice on Saturday, and afterwards, defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson met with the media. 

 

When asked about Cam Ward and what his unit is trying to accomplish, he had nothing but praise, stating they are throwing everything at the young quarterback and he is responding well to the concepts being thrown at him, which includes a new pass rush style that is starting to become more coordinated with every rep. 

 

Dennard Wilson said L’Jarius Sneed is all in and “is our starter.”

I'm not gonna pretend Jefferson is some high quality starter, but he offers a different skillset. He has better long speed and can threaten deep, which Restrepo cannot. 

 

Proche offers a similar skillset to Restrepo -- yes he's older, but he is also faster and better fighting for the ball. Both are limited by size and athleticism, but Proche has been showing out.

Jefferson is making the roster and right now the fave to be the starting X WR

I haven't been to the practices and watched Restrepo or Jefferson so all I can go off of are clips on Twitter. The local media are gushing about Proche and Oliver, but they do that shit every year about someone.

 

They track and keep up with Cam's completions, incompletions, and interceptions in a way that is absolutely retarded for what the Titans are doing. It's how they got themselves and so many fans so full of false hope with Mariota. Of course Mariota didn't help by throwing 4 touchdowns in the first half of his first game ever.

 

The media people have all been effusive about the other guys. Callahan wasn't really effusive in his praise of Restrepo, but he says the guy just gets open, catches everything, and gets up the field. Jefferson's extra gear I couldn't care less about. I'll take the guy who is more reliable over JAG who has been nothing but roster filler everywhere he's been.

If that's true then our X spot is a big problem.
