Man, I was just waiting on those Tristan Davis OTA pics! Just playing bro, great stuff. Thanks for the report and pics.
As for Paul and the TE position, from what you saw was he doing more end of the line stuff or H-back motion?
If you get John Keim's weekly e-mail, he did an interview with Matt Bowen who talked about the TE position and made a comparison with New England's tight ends. Gronk plays with his hand on the ground, on the end of the line while Hernandez is more of the motion, H-Back variety. Paul is going to be a liability blocking, simply because of his size if he's on the line with his hand down, but he could be effective if he can chip or get a running start from being in motion as a blocker.

I know Cooley looked bad early in OTAs, but dont expect him to go quietly. This guy is gonna fight for his spot.
It's OTA's. No one has on pads and no one is hitting. You can't judge much off these practices. Let me see Cooey when the pads are on and in a pre season game. Then we'll truly see if he's healthy and can still get open. If he can't then it's time to move on. If he can then we need to keep him.

Preseason? I doubt he makes it that far.

It appears everybody has a grove going on so far in OTAs. I can't believe that training camp is just eight weeks away.

I think the question of Cooley sticks around or not, is part due to how is health is and how he looks, but just importantly how Paul looks. If he quickly pans out ang gets adjusted like Shanahan thinks and Cooley isnt on his game, then its bye bye Cooley imo.

Haha, I just really liked the shot to be honest.
As far as Paul, he was on the line most of the time. He did motion, but to the slot, never the H-Back spot.

Please do remember bb is our option/wildcat QB.what does that have to do w wearing a sleeve?
griff wears it on his left / non-throwing arm w 1 glove on non-throwing hand
bb wears it on his left (but only since griff joined the team) / "throwing" arm w gloves on both hands

Perhaps Brandon Banks looks up to Griffin - Both physically and metaphorically.
