But guaranteed whoever is returning kicks this season will not be in Grant's class. I feel bad for him because the ankle/foot injury that cost him was a really dumb play call - a handoff that had him running a counter up the gut into heavy traffic. Sometimes Buck gets a little too cute on those gimmick plays. He was brought up by Lapo after all.

I wonder who the best OC buck worked under up here was. Im imagining it wasn't a bunch of elite offensive minds calling the offence. I think he was mainly the starter when Dorazio had his stint as OC in BC.

But, I'm certain MOS wouldn't let Milt take any meaningful reps. I would hope he's just a positive influence for the rookies in camp.

May 6, 20241 yr comment_694789 I mean its rookie camp. We will probably cut 5+ of those guys by the end of mini camp. We've got 4 qbs plus buck could still toss as needed. Plus we have a converted QB-WR. Im not worried about touches. I don't get the point, though. Unless milt really is keen on a come back which I also cant imagine.

May 6, 20241 yr comment_694794 I heard that Danny Mac still throws at the U.S. tryouts sometimes. And also helps Buck out with the QBs during camp? Awesome stuff

But weve also rostered a couple wrs over the past 2 years whove not even seen the field.

May 6, 20241 yr comment_694803 I don't think Milt is thinking that this is some kind of stunt....He wants meaningful reps. ...Gotta give it to him and I'd like to see him take a long bomb to the house courtesy of the newbie Barriere.....Some guys just refuse to get old...lol

Yup like when I volunteered coaching and tried to sell a triple reverse flea flicker to the head coach that would require 38 seconds for the play to materialize. My goal was to make the middle vein of his head throb with frustration. Goal achieved!

Also, I stand by the fact that he'll still be able to play as long as there's no hitting. His hands will be there, his routes will be there, his fitness will be in the top half of the team. His speed won't be the same, but I wouldn't be surprised if he made some rookie DBs look like assholes out there... Edited May 7, 20241 yr by Noeller

If he makes any DBs look like assholes out there then I will have concerns about our scouting department. No offense to Milt, but he is 54 and hasn't played in 15 years. Our DBs coming to camp should be the elite just out of the NFL recruits in their low-mid 20's.

This is fair, and you basically stole his quote from Tait's piece..... But he's also the greatest, smartest receiver to ever play the game.
