Talk about a clickbait headline. All the passes to MHJ that they showed, the CBs weren't even trying to cover him.
Not really. They’re still highlights of what occurred.

Especially because they are moving him up to 2nd team. They must like him.

I have to admit when I looked at his profile, I'm kind of puzzled that he went so late. Played a lot and didn't give up a ton of pressures or sacks.
He didn't get any starts at C in college from what I have been able to gather. It seems like a pretty quick transition which is impressive. I don't know that I am ready to eat the 2nd team C cheese yet but it is worth keeping an eye on. He is a big dude for a C.

Seems like if he can play, his easier route to playing time will be at G, where we have some big question marks.

I will offer some slight disagreement. One of the biggest keys for backup OGs is being able to kick out at T or kick inside to C. Potentially easier to learn C and be the backup than beat out 3 other veterans to play OG only.

MHJ looks Unstoppable? It's a clickbait title.
Oh, I see what you’re seeing. I was only seeing and reading the much larger text at the bottom saying training Camp highlights. Not the smaller more subdued at the top.

Dline dominating but lets hope this Oline holds up. It was a struggle at the end of the year

Agility concerns held him back. If they come right at him he’s fine, but on the side he’s vulnerable.

He may not be tall enough to ride the big rides at the fair, but I have faith in our pint-sized mad scientist, DP.

He seems like the type that will grind and grind and grind until he wins.

I guess we'll see. Out of all the coaches, his seat is probably the warmest. Fair or not.

Such a disheartening statement. Hopefully drew understands that if the Cardinals dink and dunk their way to 8-9 wins again this season and miss the playoffs with one of the easiest schedules in the NFL that he will likely be looking for another job next year.

Especially with the revamped defense who should create more opportunities and allow you to play aggressively- we should be taking shots down the field and open up this pedestrian passing attack (that possesses elite level pass catchers which is the most infuriating part!!!). Sure it's fine to slow grind bad teams like the jets and bears- but when we needed to turn it on last year against GOOD teams like the Vikings, lions, rams, Seahawks etc we fell flat on our face and the passing game looked awful.

If drew thinks the offensive playcalling he has presented the last two years is acceptable at a playoff caliber level- he needs to wake up

C'mon monti- we have the cap space and I bet Hernandez would not be expensive. He would be great depth if nothing else
Hump didn’t do well on his return last year.

Do we need a medically cleared aged guard trying to regain his pre injury status one year removed from an ACL injury?

lol...brother...he is telling you that it isn't a scheme issue and it's has always been emphasized. You have to read between some lines here.
