A handful of fairy tales from the story bag...
Man, the NFL and the Cards are really reaching now. Miced up...at rookie minicamp? What's next, miced up in the weight room? Miced up in the car on the way to the team hotel?
I thought it was a good insight into the attitude and personality of our highest drafted rookie.

lol I know. I think it's the remnants of all the off-season attempts by the NFL to squeeze every last drop of drama (read profit) out of the fans. The "schedule release event" idea was just a bridge too far for me. Then we get miced up rookie camp, and I just rolled my eyes.
Ha, fair
I liked the way he was coaching the other kids. "You need to get over more for that block" and things like that.

I like this kid. Vocal, athletic . . competitive.

I have high hopes for McBride.
Good kid, good athlete, looks like he is a competitor, and he wants to be here.
It would be great to be one of those teams with a 1,000 yard receiving TE.

With all the sports Lucy-Charlie browning down to az this year I can no longer even allow myself to dream about that. McBride is going to be next in line of our historical McLoser McTightend position (McWilliams and McNiklas - what? He played for the fighting Irish!).

I hope he’s good. Keim’s TE drafting record is cringe worthy.

Johnny McWilliams.
I remember being excited about that guy. Man he sucked.
Niklas was just a walking MASH unit.
Houser. Looked like Tarzan, played like Jane Goodall.

He hasn't exactly thrown much draft capital at TE.
That is literally the point NFL (or any sports). It's 100% pure entertainment. Why is this so surprising?lol I know.

What are you even doing on these boards talking about a team that doesn't know you exist?
Are you not entertained?
The mic's up part I don't care about but watching him consistently catch the ball with his hands high and not break stride I love.

I learned 4 things watching that:
1. He grunts every time he catches the ball. Weird.
2. Was he made “rookie captain” because he’s the highest draft pick?
3. And don’t #41 ever carrying the ball.
4. Mic’ing up a rookie at rookie camp is silly as literally nothing interesting or funny was said.

Noticed the same thing. He's a hands catcher.

Rob Housler, the dude.
the year he was drafted, local radio had Howard Schellenberger, his college coach on to talk about him.
usually the college coaches are enthusiastic. The most Howard would say is that "he has chance if he puts it together....". Sounded genuinely surprised he was drafted where he was. You would think a guy drafted in the 3rd round from Florida Atlantic would have been the best guy on his team.
Thats when i knew there was a problem.
DC Jefferson (7th), Troy Niklas (2nd), Gerald Christian (7th), Caleb Wilson (7th), Trey McBride (2nd)
Is that enough of a track record to even give a grade?

Niklas obvs was the big miss
the diff between McBride and Niklas is that Niklas was a 100% projection pick based on a pretty small sample vs. McBride who produced over multiple college seasons

Seems like he's taking on a leadership role already, with the other rookies. Hope that's natural to him and not forced.
