Tahj is also looking good. It seems they do envision him and Brown as a thunder and lightning combo. Add in the return of Perine and you can tell Pitcher wanted some power backs in the room to complement Chase Brown. And if Burton really has his head correctly attached now it gives them a home run threat on every throw (like Chase is).
Defense even with the Trey and Stewart frictions is also looking better. Knight is showing already at LB and overall the back 7 look more organized and everything is moving faster - I suspect this is all part of Taylor running everything at a faster pace that resembles real live play more.
Oh yeah, I am excited for the Offense this year. Joe just had his best season and he had wrist surgery before last season and is saying he is
finally getting 100%. Fairchild I think will be better than Volson right off the bat, he knows how to stay low and he is violent with his hands.
I also really like Rivers if he is needed, he has long arms and can play LT or LG. Tahj Brooks just fits like a glove if we are running inside zone
run blocking and he is a great short yardage back with burst and good vision. Bringing back Samaje really added another physical presence to
our room I think was sorely needed, Tahj is physical too which is awesome.
We all want Trey and Shemar practicing but this might be a good thing getting Murphy and Ossai so many starting snaps. Love the Knight
addition and we will be blitzing a lot more under Golden, so it won't all be the front 4 rushing all the time.

All NFL players have elite talent, but the mind needs to match the athleticism. The drive to be great has to be elite and ability to get rid of distractions keys how good the elite athete will become.
Chase is not just an elite athlete, he is an elite himan being driven to be the best, not good, the best and why he is an absolute stud. He got paid and it was good to see him at camp working hard, we have seen too many get the pay day and no longer were motivated for greatness,
Agree, not a better Receiver to learn from then Ja'Marr Chase, nobody works harder than this man. He really grew as a route runner last
year and this year looks like as a leader.
