I loved Hudson during the process. He needs to add a little weight imo but he’s got the frame for it. Odds are against him as a UDFA of course, but I think he has a real shot. More than the UCLA kid.

I think one of the two Centers, Williams, Hatten and one of the LBers (for ST) all have a shot. I’d bet one or two of that group make the final roster.
Yeah that’s where I’d lean too. Of course someone could jump out and become un-cuttable (like Nowaskie, until he wasn’t), but certainly the path is easier to see for those guys.
I think Galvin and Joseph are the two guys from last years class who may have a shot to make it. I’m assuming Manu isn’t ready to be our Swing Tackle. If so Galvin makes some sense. Just raising the floor if the shit hits the fan.

Yeah Galvin makes a ton of sense. Of course we probably have to keep Manu on the active roster all year. Or I guess there’s a few weeks where we can protect him, but otherwise. Too much of an investment to risk. We know he’s not gonna hit the ground running.
Also Gilmore, don’t forget him. Probably a lot harder now to be active, though maybe until Moseley’s ready? Practice squad for sure.
I feel like keep Galvin and cut Skipper. Manu can be the jumbo guy. Getting some live bullets even in a narrowly defined role makes sense.

So: Sewell, Glasgow, Zeitler, Frank, Decker…
Galvin, Manu, Sorsdal? Mahogany? Awosike? Hudson?
We might have to keep 9
I think it was very likely to be in with but Moseley is definitely getting slow-rolled. We don’t need him right away. Get him right for the playoff run and his next contract somewhere.

My guess would be:
OT: Penei, Decker, Manu, Galvin
OG: Zeitler, GG, MoHogs, Colby
C: Rags
10 would not shock me tbh
Nice
Just now I got a cease and desist letter from Mark May in my inbox.

They had plenty of opportunity to make that shit official. Honestly Hogs should be their nickname. Too easy.
I still think we need to get on the motorcade nickname for our OL.
If there is something better fine. But the way we’re building this we need a nickname for the OL.

I like the Motorcade as well. You just need to get someone like Kyle Brandt or Schrager to promote it.
Not as many OL nicknames these days though.
How many OL will we carry? With Manu, Awosika, Sorsdal, and Mahogany, that’s 9. I like Galvin as a swing tackle, though has he every played RT? Injuries could save us from making hard decisions.
So much will be revealed over time…
Hedgehogs….
The Hedgehog is a pawn formation in chess adopted usually by Black that can arise from several openings. Black exchanges the pawn on c5 for White’s pawn on d4, and then places pawns on the squares a6, b6, d6, and e6 . These pawns form a row of “spines” behind which Black develops their forces
And homes is playing chess in the checker world of the nfl
I hope we are now well prepared for the inevitable injury bug biting. It won’t be such a drop off from starter to backup and a succession plan at each position.
Wish we could have signed DE Eyabi Okie-Anoma (upside, but may not have passed the turd test, landed in KC) and DE Braiden McGregor (jets) as UDFAs. Really the only position where we are thin. Kicker as well.
But didn’t they give the guarantees (higher) to the UCLA kid? Can you expand on your thinking about why one vs the other ‘thats2’
