How is Ojomo "clearly" better than he was last year? Because some beat writers that half the board think they have no idea what they are watching said he had a good camp? We haven't seen anything yet.

The videos of his TC performance speak for themselves … as do the comments from his teammates.

I agree it is a time will tell situation.

    What’s up, guys? I’ve been quiet on here lately. The truth is, I’ve been going through a rough stretch with my mental health. I wasn’t sure whether to say anything, but with June being Men’s Mental He

Howie viewed him in high Estime

Google says he is the shortest center in the last 25 years. The next closest seems to be 6'2.

What videos? 1 on 1's in shells?

Signing Estime to the PS is a good get!

Powell looked good, Eagles chose Estime over Powell and Montrell Johnson. I thought both those guys had good camps, so Eagles must like Estime a lot.

The Rams just assume Lampkin was going to clear waivers for being undersized? That quickness is no joke. Plenty of strength for his size too.

Estime needs to cut about 10 pounds to add some burst, but he has good feet for a big back.

Want Willie Lampkin to succeed in the NFL.

Being 5'8" myself, he is a hero of the vertically challenged.

He was waived/injured I believe. They probably thought that was enough to get him through.

I don't think they have much in common. Lampkin is never playing G

It grieves me to say it because Keegan is a Michigan man but he has shown nothing at this level. I think Lampkin is just, well, better. Even at guard. That's not so much praise for Lampkin as it is a comment on Keegan.

Just on those few clips I've seen it's obvious Lampkin has fantastic feet and because of his stature, he gets under his opponent. Low man wins. He looks very quick too. Those here who suggested him as a fullback are on the money, I think. He's got, what? 60 pounds on BVS. I can definitely see him as an offset-I FB.

He was injured/waived. They were probably banking on that scaring teams off.

You would not believe how much wrestling is a good foundation for leverage between that and the cross training of Judo into collegiate wrestling. I wrestled into college and pursued MMA after college. I could take anyone down pretty easily. The core strength and understanding of leverage you get from that background is amazing.

I'm not a Keegan guy either, I just think the Eagles like him more than most do.

Definitely had a nose for the ball, but "turnover machine” a whole level greater than "nose for the ball.”

Further, in his six NFL seasons he has a total of 18 INTs … 3 per year. And in the four non-Eagles seasons he has a total of 6

INTs … 1.5 per year. Perhaps his INTs are attributable to scheme.

But we are talking about his time with the Eagles whwre he played under two different DCs and had 6 interceptions each season here.

I'd also keep in mind the PS is really like 18 for the Eagles. I have no doubt Howie will do the weekly juggling of cutting one guy and signing another just to cut that guy next week and sign back the other.

Chance Campbell being the LB we kept for the PS is fairly surprising.

There is a preseason highlight video on YouTube where he looks like a superstar. Maybe that's what Howie watched.

You might end up being right, but I don't think the Eagles agree right now. They've previously shown very little interest in C-only players, and he's definitely not beating out Jurgens.

I'm not surprised to see him not make a team in year 2, and I'm not interested in having him on the PS. Hope someone signs him to their 53 soon.

Lazy comparison, but always reminded me of Josh Adams. Not bad for the PS tho.

Howie had a strong desire to lighten up the LB room

I was happy to see APR made the practice squad. He was so quiet throughout camp and buried so deep on the depth chart. I figured when he wasn't one of the first cuts that maybe they decided to try to keep him for the practice squad. They finally filled out his player bio this past weekend so I figured that was a decent sign.

I didn’t think any of the backs we saw in the second half of the preseason games looked particularly good. I was always kind of surprised when I read praises about them. They were the JAGGIEST of JAGS, I thought.

I liked Estime a lot at Notre Dame. Not real fast but he’s powerful. Was disappointed the Eagles didn’t draft him last year and was surprised yesterday when I saw the Broncos had waived him.
