    Time to go to work (Pickett signs with Steelers...)

    I recall celebrating the drafting of KP8, and welcoming the KP8 era during training camp... and being criticized on this list....
    ~~way-back machine engaged~~
    me: OK, the business is taken care of... Now it's time to show all the doubters that not only are you the most NFL-ready rookie QB, you are deserving of being a starter and the only first-round QB taken in the draft...

    KP worked mainly with the 3rd string in OTAs, but worked hard. Mitch and KP are training together in Florida this summer. That's good.
    I would expect him to move into the #2 spot in training camp regardless of what happens with MR.
    We’ll probably see how much KP has progressed in game 2 of the preseason. I imagine he’ll start or play a lot with the starting O instead of seeing him with 2nd and 3rd stringers.
    I hope Mitch starts the season and plays well enough to give KP more time to develop.

    My, how times change...

        This is certainly good news. As for NFL readiness it's not what I'm hearing out of camp.
        Trolls are people too.

          In view of the fact that Mike Tomlin has matched Cowhers record I give him the designation:

            I've been so busy that I have to admit I have not followed the goings on of late. What is the word out there on what the team has seen to this point?

                    Huh? Of course, it's THIS camp. What other camp would I be talking about?

                      I think Monalo nailed it. KP needs time. He is struggling with some inconsistency.

                        This is some serious dark humor but funny.

                            What does that even mean? Of course, I listen to Moats, Chris Carter, Ramon Foster, etc. I don't claim to be sitting in camp taking notes and neither are any of you foos.

                              A little sluggish today Shawn.
                              There are 32 camps. For example the Falcons have a camp.

                              NOW look at my correction:

                              THIS camp."
