Yes, I would also like to see some quick hitters. And maybe a few more screen plays. Maybe get Daniels the ball a couple of times.

Thats one of the benifets of having White. Hamilton used him that way quite a bit

I am going evaluate him every 6 games to see if he improves. He has the size, and quickness, he just has to figure out how to get more pressure. Also playing with our starting D might open up some holes for him. 

Disagree, no other player has been handed a rotational spot above others, if he's the ratio fix to spell off Lawson, he's going to be out there at critical times across from Willy, just because they have limited ratio options.  What was the point of giving Anthony Bennett a free ride for the entire 2023 season, he never progressed and 3 years later he's retired and out of football.  Playing a player that hasn't earned his spot just because of the ratio hurts the team and should be known as the "Sam Hurl move".

I do not care for anointing high draft picks as special, that's just hype and marketing, they are still rookies that typically have a lot to learn before they become useful players.

Yeah I'm not sure why some have their noses out of joint with him. He's a rookie coming back from the NCAA, certainly not an Ekakitie or Bennett situation where either the measurables or the production (or both) make them extremely questionable.

Clercius, Ball,  Novak and Allen out. No word on whether 1 game or 6 game yet.  Eli & M. Williams GTD. Elsbury impacts the ratio obviously if he needs to start. Texada would come in for Williams in theory.
One game at a time

That's what some on the forum do, judge heavy and early.  Agree all.  Should know more by labour day.  But I give him 2 full seasons to completely evaluate.  Patience usually pays off for higher end talent.  Hope we don't rush him, but he is welcome to rush the QB lol.
