Wonderboy Haeg from last season was so overwhelming during his 2nd Training Camp as a 5th round draft choice in 2016 that he could not retain a starting position in 2017 and appears to be riding the bench. We will see if he is again a starter in the future.

Banner drafted in the 4th round and then cut without playing a real down ffor us....

Schwenke signed to a solid veteran contract and then cut without playing a a real down for us....

I have to admit, this "trend" is beginning to make me wonder about Philbin's coaching ability. If the line performs better than, of course, all is forgiven but...

Walk Worthy,

In fairness, I always got the idea that Good was projected as a starter but was too green to be in that position, until now apparently. Chappie always seemed to give that outlook for him anyway. Haven't followed Haeg's projections as closely.

As far as the original post, being so positive is fine, but taken literally, the quote means he has felt worse about the line which would be in spite of prior sunshine & rainbow-filled assessments back then.
