Austin Tyler Seifert, Cycle Ninja

The Cycle Ninjas who try to kill Eli and other Gemstones in Season 2 are played by professional bikers. so most don't have much experience in front of the camera. An exception is Austin Seifert, aka Austin Tyler, who has 52 credits on IMDB in stunt work. He's been a stunt double for Lucas Till, Shea Whigham, and Parker Sack. He also has four acting credits.

I haven't been able to find out much else about him. In his last instagram post, he alludes to working on Season 3, but he's not listed in the credits. He is a semi-pro cyclist, skateboarder, and surfer. He took a girl to senior prom with a girl in 2015. He was photographed in Pacific Palisades with this guy in 2018, but the guy never appears again. I'm intrigued.

Eisenhower rolls Cudahy in Playoff Opener

NEW BERLIN – New Berlin Eisenhower’s football team has been one of the best in Division 3 all year, and they opened the playoffs with a bang.

The top-seeded Lions left no doubt in their WIAA Level 1 game against Cudahy on Friday night, as Ike easily defeated the Packers, 49-0. Sophomore quarterback Gabe Seifert and senior running back Jack Himmelspach combined for five touchdowns to lead the charge, and the defense intercepted four passes.

“I think we really wanted to come out and make sure we established the line of scrimmage on both sides,” Ike coach Matt Kern said. “We know that’s going to be something that’s crucial to our success in the playoffs here. I was happy with the way we did that. I thought our defensive line had a nice night and we were able to continue to force turnovers. I would call it kind of a businessman-like effort tonight.”

Both teams traded three and outs before three game-changing plays happened consecutively. The Packers had the first of those when junior offensive/defensive lineman Kyler Palmatier blocked a punt to set Cudahy up deep in Lions territory.

Ike had the next two big plays, one of them accounting for the first score. On the first play of the ensuing drive, Lions’ junior wide receiver/defensive back Max Lewis intercepted a pass in the end zone and returned it to the Ike 34-yard line. The next play, Himmelspach found a hole and darted up the middle for a 66-yard touchdown to give the Lions the early lead.

After the defense forced another three and out, the Ike offense went to work. Himmelspach opened the possession with a 25-yard run that set the Lions up in the red zone. Sophomore quarterback Gabe Seifert later scored on a keeper from two yards out to double the advantage at 14-0.

“It was the big guys up front early,” Himmelspach said. “They’re giving me holes. Cudahy played it pretty well sometimes, but when the holes were there, I was just able to cut them up and outrun them to the end zone.”

“Jack’s a unique talent and he’s obviously a big weapon; big piece of our offense,” said Kern of Himmelspach. “I know as we get going here deeper into the playoffs that he’ll continue to be a big part of the plan.”

The Packers hit their first big play on the next drive when freshman quarterback Bryce Barbian found senior wide receiver/defensive back Austin Eichstaedt down the left sideline for a 36-yard pass. However, Ike’s secondary ended the drive again when junior running back/rover Eli Hoelke ran down an interception in the end zone.

“I know our kids take the preparation part of everything really seriously during the week, so I know those guys have a pretty good idea of what we’re going to get from the opponent,” said Kern regarding his secondary. “That gives them an extra step in coverage and they’re also really looking to get hands on balls.”

Seifert hit his first big pass on the next play when he found senior wide receiver/defensive back Samuel Tausz on the left sideline, the latter of whom sprinted down that side for a 66-yard gain. Seifert later scored on another keeper.

“The two touchdown runs were the big guys up front,” Seifert said. “They create the holes and I’ve got the easy job of running through them. With the passes, my wide receivers are so talented. (Junior wide receiver/linebacker) Ben Buechel’s got good hops. Just toss it up to the guy. Sam Tausz made a great play on that short pass and took it 50 yards.”

Ike ran a few plays to get into Cudahy territory on the next drive and set up Hoelke for his big play on offense. Hoelke ran a sweep left and scampered 38 yards to bring the score to 28-0.

Himmelspach struck again with just under two minutes to play in the first half. After another Hoelke interception, he ran 35 yards down the right side to give the Lions a five-touchdown lead at the break.

The senior running back kept his rhythm going to begin the second half. Himmelspach initially ran for a 60-yard score that was called back on holding, but he later scored on a 27-yard run right. A 47-yard strike from Seifert to Buechel set him up for the scoring run.

Ike got its final touchdown following an interception that was initially returned for a touchdown but was called back on holding. Junior backup quarterback Gab Olson found reserve senior wide receiver/linebacker Jason Cooke for a 22-yard gain before junior running back/linebacker Jack Osielski punched in from two yards out to produce the final score.

“I think the biggest thing is for our guys to just make sure that they’re competing every single day,” said Kern regarding his team’s chances in the playoffs. “I think not necessarily getting upset or getting down if something bad happens. If a team scores or makes big plays, it’s just playing the next play.”

Status Update: On hiatus (and a preview of some audio drama script!)

Hey folks! I haven’t been updating this Tumblr for a few months. I really appreciate all of your support, and you deserve to know what’s going on. So, here’s the official announcement:

Astrophobia — the audio drama, and the comic — are officially on-hold. :(

The long and the short of it is: I (Brandon) have some substantial chronic health problems. And they kept getting in the way of production so many times that I eventually had to bite the bullet and put the project on indefinite hold. I really hate doing that! All my writing projects are my babies. But of all the ideas I’ve come up with, Astrophobia is one of my all-time favorites. And I’ve been really excited to share the world that we’re developing with everybody.

Is this the end of our traumatized band of space adventurers? Nope! Megan (voice actor) and John (musician/producer) are still committed to the project. And they’ve let me know that I can take all the time that I need to get my health better. Meanwhile, Joe (the comic artist) has had to move on to other projects. But I’m hoping that, when the stars align, we’ll be able to make the comic version happen!

In the meantime, I’m dabbling in prose fiction. (For several reasons, including that it’s easier to produce around my health flares, and because if I have to take some time off from it, my absence isn’t impacting someone else in the chain of production.) And one of my goals with it is to produce some Astrophobia short stories and sell them to magazines and such! So there may be Astrophobia content sooner rather than later.

Again, thank you for your patience and support. I’m going to get back to this project as soon as humanly possible. For now, I thought I’d leave you with an audio drama monologue I wrote for Commander December Primrose that I’m partial to. (I’m really looking forward to hearing Megan record a version of this at some point!)

Orpheus, personal log. Hashtag "mission." ...And hashtag "anxiety."

[PAUSE: COLLECTING HER THOUGHTS] ...So, the longer we're out here, the less comfortable with our mission I'm getting. It's not... I don't mean the official mission. I mean our real mission. The one none of us actually talk about. Because, let's face it...

...Our mission is to die.

I, uh. A couple minutes ago, I made the mistake of looking up the history of deaths related to space exploration. I kind of skimmed it. I got through about the first fifty years — but by then I was too anxious to keep going.

I mean, they didn't teach us this stuff in Worlds History class! We learned about "Apollo 11" and the first moon landing, sure. But we didn't learn about "Apollo One." And that they were using a pure-oxygen breathing mix in the cabin of their vessel. There's a reason nobody uses pure oxygen in space! Because it catches fire. ...Like it did during an Apollo One launch rehearsal. And killed the whole crew.

Oh, speaking of Worlds History class: They taught us about Yuri Gagarin from the Soviet Union. And how he was the first person to reach space. But they didn't teach us about how he crashed a jet in a training exercise a few years later. And died. And they also left out that he was the backup pilot for the "Soyuz 1" mission. Where the parachute failed, and the descent module crashed. Killing the actual pilot.

Let's see... [PARAPHRASING FROM TEXT SHE'S READING] That first fifty years, there were two different American, uh, "space shuttles" that blew up... One during the launch, and the other during reentry... And there's... uh... well... Then there was Laika.

The first animal to orbit Earth was a dog. From the Soviet Union. She was a stray. They picked her up off the street. Ran some tests. Named her Laika. And then they shot her into space. But...

...They hadn't figured out how to de-orbit a spacecraft yet. They shot her into space. And they knew she wasn't coming home.

The Orpheus? Everyone on this ship? [PAUSE] Every single one of us is a "Laika." [PAUSE] I think that's starting to get to a lot of us.

I can see it on peoples' faces, each time we launch a warp buoy. A "message in a bottle." Our condition, current location... and where we're warping to next.

We do that so... when we disappear? When we stop sending updates back... I mean, there's no way for Earth to know how it happened! But this way, they'll know where we died. We, all of us on the ship. We know that. And it's right there, on everyone's faces.

I always look around when we do buoy-deployment. It's, like... everyone's jaws are clenched. And they're looking straight ahead. But they're not really looking at anything. [PAUSE] Or maybe they're looking at their own mortality? [PAUSE. DRYLY:] Wow, listen to that. I should quit my job and become a space poet.

I mean... the whole Orpheus Program? Our mission is to visit other star systems. One by one. And see if any of them hold threats to us. But, if we find a threat? Well. Unlikely that we'll live long enough to tell anybody.

So we clench our jaws. And send the buoys. And don't talk about the fact that, if we actually accomplish our mission, it's going to kill us all.

My point is... We — I mean, people. Us, as a species. Humans. We killed a stray dog, to help us all out. We killed her for our own knowledge. And... now...

...Now it's my turn. And Boone's, and Amadi's, and Wukong's.

It's a suicide mission. And we all signed up for it.

[PAUSE] There was one other early space program death that caught my eye. An American. I don't remember the name. He was flying a training jet. And a, uh, goose smashed into his canopy! His windshield shattered. Shards of it got sucked into his engines. Engines flamed out. He ejected. But he was too close to the ground for proper parachute deployment. And... yeah.

So maybe we aren't a bunch of Laikas. Maybe we'll go out like that American, instead. Victims of random chance. Colliding with "space geese."

So. I guess there's that to look forward to...

Appello ai Cardinali di Santa Romana Chiesa. Errore del papa sulla pena di morte

Il sito statunitense “LifeSiteNews” promuove un appello, ripreso da numerosi siti cattolici, firmato da numerose personalità del mondo accademico, religioso e culturale, rivolto ai cardinali della Chiesa romana perché consiglino il Pontefice regnante di ritirare dal Catechismo la variazione aggiunta qualche giorno fa in tema di pena capitale. Anche noi lo riproponiamo ai nostri lettori insieme alla lista dei primi firmatari, tra cui la mia.

Nota: gli studiosi, sacerdoti e laici, che desiderino firmare l'Appello possono presentare il loro nome e le credenziali a questo indirizzo email: appealtocardinals@gmail.com. Una volta verificati, i nomi verranno aggiunti all'elenco dei firmatari.

Papa Francesco ha modificato il Catechismo della Chiesa cattolica nel senso che «la pena di morte è inammissibile perché attenta all'inviolabilità e alla dignità della persona ». Questa affermazione è stata compresa da molti, sia dentro che fuori la Chiesa, come un insegnamento che la pena capitale è intrinsecamente immorale e quindi è sempre illecita, anche in linea di principio.

Sebbene nessun cattolico in pratica sia obbligato a sostenere l'uso della pena di morte (e non tutti i sottoscrittori la sostengono), insegnare che la pena capitale è sempre un male intrinseco contraddirebbe la Scrittura. Che la pena di morte possa essere un mezzo legittimo per assicurare la giustizia retributiva è affermato in Genesi 9: 6 e in molti altri testi biblici, e la Chiesa sostiene che la Scrittura non può insegnare l'errore morale. La legittimità in linea di principio della pena capitale è anche insegnamento coerente del magistero per due millenni. Contrastare la Scrittura e la tradizione su questo punto metterebbe in dubbio la credibilità del magistero in generale.

Preoccupati per questa grave e scandalosa situazione, desideriamo esercitare il diritto affermato dal Codice di diritto canonico della Chiesa, che al canone 212 afferma:

§2. I fedeli hanno il diritto di manifestare ai Pastori della Chiesa le proprie necessità, soprattutto spirituali, e i propri desideri. §3. In modo proporzionato alla scienza, alla competenza e al prestigio di cui godono, essi hanno il diritto, e anzi talvolta anche il dovere, di manifestare ai sacri Pastori il loro pensiero su ciò che riguarda il bene della Chiesa; e di renderlo noto agli altri fedeli, salva restando l'integrità della fede e dei costumi e il rispetto verso i Pastori, tenendo inoltre presente l'utilità comune e la dignità della persona.

Siamo guidati anche dall'insegnamento di San Tommaso d'Aquino, che afferma:

"Quando ci fosse un pericolo per la fede, i sudditi sarebbero tenuti a rimproverare i loro prelati anche pubblicamente" e, citando Agostino (Glossa ordinaria su Galati, 2, 11), prosegue:  "Pietro stesso diede l'esempio ai superiori di non sdegnare di essere corretti dai sudditi, quando capitasse loro di allontanarsi dalla retta via". ( Summa Theologiae, Parte II-II, Domanda 33, Articolo 4, ad 2)

Pertanto il sottoscritto formula il seguente appello:

Alle reverendissime eminenze, i cardinali della santa Chiesa romana. Dal momento che è una verità contenuta nella parola di Dio, e insegnata dal magistero ordinario e universale della Chiesa cattolica che i criminali possono legittimamente essere messi a morte dal potere civile quando ciò sia necessario per preservare il giusto ordine nella società civile, e dal momento che il presente pontefice romano ha più di una  volta manifestato il suo rifiuto di insegnare questa dottrina, e ha invece portato una grande confusione nella Chiesa sembrando contraddirlo, inserendo nel Catechismo della Chiesa Cattolica un paragrafo che farà sì, e già sta facendo sì che molte persone, sia credenti che non credenti, suppongano che la Chiesa consideri, contrariamente alla parola di Dio, che la pena capitale è intrinsecamente malvagia, noi facciamo appello alle Vostre Eminenze affinché consiglino Sua Santità che è suo dovere porre fine a questo scandalo, e ritirare questo paragrafo dal Catechismo, e insegnare la parola di Dio senza adulterazioni; e osiamo dichiarare la nostra convinzione che questo è un dovere che Vi impegna seriamente, di fronte a Dio e di fronte alla Chiesa.

Horseshoe Bay Retreat in Llano County

Sep 30, 2021

Design: Dick Clark + Associates

Location: Llano County, Texas, USA

Horseshoe Bay Retreat

Horseshoe Bay Retreat is a modestly sized and budgeted weekend residence for an urban couple with extended family. The primary goal was the creation of an optimal atmosphere for entertaining family and friends while capitalizing on the clear, panoramic views of Horseshoe Bay and distant Packsaddle Mountain beyond.

Opposite the primary bedroom suite, three identical cabana rooms are separated from the main house by a covered breezeway, affording guests unique privacy from the main house. The site exhibited significant sloping grades; therefore, a split-level scheme was incorporated, with entry to the main house at the upper (main) level, and a multi-purpose sleeping/media room at the lower level.

The interior spaces, covered terrace and pool are oriented to frame the ample panoramic view. The use of limestone walls inside and out creates a seamless blend of interior to exterior architecture, while the stained wood ceiling and soffit provide a continuous element linking the shared spaces.

Combining the efficiency of the area with thoughtful material selection, this design epitomizes cost-effective, beautiful architecture.

2017 NFL training camp predictions for all 32 groups

New Post has been published on https://othersportsnews.com/2017-nfl-training-camp-predictions-for-all-32-groups/

2017 NFL training camp predictions for all 32 groups

Who has the leg up to commence opposite Richard Sherman in Seattle? What about across from Patrick Peterson in Arizona? And which rookies are primed to see the area in 7 days 1?

With every single workforce now in training camp, NFL Nation reporters give their picks for huge situation battles and huge staff variations with one particular early prediction:

NFC East | NFC North | NFC South | NFC West AFC East | AFC North| AFC South | AFC West

NFC EAST

Jaylon Smith will be on the video game-working day roster to commence the period.

Who’s on the bubble? Which rookie could shock? NFL Nation reporters acquire a crack at a preliminary 53-gentleman roster and setting up lineup projection and preview what to hope in training camp for every single workforce.

No quarterbacks, offensive linemen or coordinators permitted — just go-catchers and running backs. From 32-1, we’re position every single team’s offensive weapons.

1 Relevant

That won’t indicate he will be a starter at one particular of the linebacker spots in opposition to the Giants. The Cowboys will provide Smith along slowly in the course of camp, but he has shown enhancement in his motion due to the fact the spring with his early perform. He is doing work on the punt and kickoff groups and will be able to give some place responsibility as he will make an unbelievable return from a really serious knee damage. — Todd Archer

D.J. Fluker will perform his way into the setting up lineup.

It could possibly be at appropriate guard but far more probable would be at appropriate tackle, even if he put in the spring at guard. The Chargers’ 2013 initially-round decide on has some thing to establish after becoming released earlier this offseason, and the Giants’ tackle condition is shaky at most effective. New York signed him to a one particular-yr, $three million deal in March. — Jordan Raanan

Nelson Agholor will protected a outstanding place in the extensive receiver rotation.

There is some uncertainty encompassing Jordan Matthews, who has been working with lingering knee issues and is in the last yr of his rookie agreement. Agholor took gain of Matthews’ absence in the course of sections of the spring and arguably looked the most effective he ever has as a pro even though manning the slot. Agholor has struggled to commence his job, but he will flash plenty of in camp to convince the coaching staff members that he has at last turned the corner. — Tim McManus

Josh Doctson will have a standout camp.

The 2016 initially-round decide on was off to a great commence in the initially follow very last week, on the lookout as great as any extensive receiver and exhibiting patience in his routes however getting open up down the area. The crucial for Doctson will be keeping healthy after missing almost all of the offseason tactics and fourteen game titles in 2016 due to the fact of Achilles’ issues. — John Keim

NFC NORTH

Victor Cruz will make plenty of plays in camp to receive a place on Chicago’s last 53-gentleman roster.

The Bears’ receiver situation is extensive open up. Somebody wants to move up. Former seventh in general decide on Kevin White‘s agreement is confirmed. Markus Wheaton will make $6 million confirmed in 2017. Cam Meredith is coming off a effective yr. But Cruz, who signed for only one particular yr, $1 million with a modest $five hundred,000 signing bonus, has an exceptional possibility to make the workforce — supplied he stays healthy. — Jeff Dickerson

Greg Robinson will acquire the remaining tackle struggle.

This is a toss-up condition now, with Taylor Decker out indefinitely pursuing shoulder operation. The Lions have brought in several options to consider to fill the area remaining by the damage to very last year’s initially-round decide on: Robinson, Cyrus Kouandjio and Tony Hills. Which is in addition to on-the-roster options Cornelius Lucas and Corey Robinson. But Greg Robinson has the most talent of all of people gamers, and if he can find a way to tap into the opportunity in a new area after matters failed to perform out with the Rams, the Lions could possibly have traded for a steal. Even if he won’t totally get there, he could possibly be the most effective possibility until eventually Decker returns. But it’s an open up level of competition in the course of camp. — Michael Rothstein

Randall Cobb will re-arise as a focal point of the Packers’ offense.

With all the speak about Ty Montgomery as a total-time running again, the addition of limited conclude Martellus Bennett and receivers Jordy Nelson and Davante Adams coming off sturdy seasons, Cobb has gotten misplaced in the shuffle. But there’s a reason coach Mike McCarthy has mentioned he wishes to get the ball in Cobb’s hands far more. He is a dynamic playmaker who provides a further dimension to the Packers’ offense. — Rob Demovsky

Cornerback Mackensie Alexander, not receiver Laquon Treadwell, will arise from training camp as the most essential member of the Vikings’ underwhelming 2016 draft class.

Treadwell gathered far more offseason hype in his hard work to defeat a rookie period restricted to nine game titles and one particular capture. But Alexander will embrace and acquire the nickelback job, which would get him on the area for about two-thirds of the defense’s plays. Treadwell’s route to supplemental actively playing time is a lot less very clear, unless it will come from a front-office mandate to get the initially-round decide on on the area. — Kevin Seifert

NFC SOUTH

Rookie Duke Riley will receive a setting up role.

Falcons coach Dan Quinn previously implied that he would like Riley on the area at linebacker in the base defense alongside De’Vondre Campbell and former university teammate Deion Jones. The query is: Will Riley keep on being on the area in the nickel rather than Campbell? Campbell’s duration and skill to go over limited finishes will be a factor, but Riley could possibly be capable of doing the same, with greater awareness. — Vaughn McClure

Kelvin Benjamin will be the offensive MVP of camp for the Panthers.

The 2014 initially-round decide on was possessing that style of camp in 2015 when he endured a period-ending knee damage. The extensive receiver was recovering from that a yr back in camp, and it impacted his period. He was named out for becoming a little bit over weight in the course of offseason workouts, but he claimed to camp in peak condition. Glimpse for Benjamin to once more make the impressive plays that created him stand out two years back. — David Newton

Rookie Ryan Ramczyk will acquire the setting up remaining tackle job.

Ramczyk has previously gotten earlier the biggest hurdle: chance. He lined up as the setting up remaining tackle on the initially working day of training camp, regardless of possessing just one particular yr of main university expertise and regardless of missing most of OTAs and minicamp as he recovered from hip operation. Absolutely, Ramczyk will struggle some highs and lows at the time the pads come on and the preseason game titles commence. But if he seems to be the component as much as any other veteran possibility, then the Saints will give their initially-round draft decide on every single chance to keep down the job until eventually Terron Armstead returns from shoulder operation later on this yr. — Mike Triplett

Rookie Chris Godwin will be the darling of the preseason.

The third-round decide on was one particular of the most steady extensive receivers in OTAs and minicamp, catching just about all the things thrown his way. A person participate in stands out from very last Thursday’s follow, as Godwin confirmed good concentration and overall body manage, such as leaping to capture a deflected go even though doing work in opposition to Brent Grimes. It was one particular participate in, but it was a heckuva go in opposition to a savvy veteran corner. — Jenna Laine

NFC WEST

Justin Bethel will acquire the setting up cornerback job opposite Patrick Peterson.

This is dependent on wellbeing, of study course, but Bethel commenced training camp as the initially-workforce appropriate corner and has stacked great follow on prime of great follow, which will make it tough for Brandon Williams to acquire the job absent. Bethel struggled very last period even though working with a foot damage. — Josh Weinfuss

Rookie Cooper Kupp will establish himself as one particular of the Rams’ most important receivers.

He is a third-round decide on out of Eastern Washington, one particular of eleven extensive receivers on the roster, but the Rams shown him as a projected starter prior to the commence of training camp, after Tavon Austin and Robert Woods. Kupp won every single award possible in university and is a ideal slot receiver for the Rams. He runs precise routes, has good hands and provides elite area awareness, a byproduct of his unmatched perform ethic and in general intelligence. Kupp’s former Eastern Washington coach, Beau Baldwin, who is now the offensive coordinator at Cal, mentioned: “I you should not have a solitary doubt in my mind that he will have an awesome influence in an NFL offense.” — Alden Gonzalez

Rookie George Kittle will acquire a setting up job at limited conclude by the time camp is about.

The fifth-round decide on was previously earning repetitions with the initially-workforce offense like a initially-round option in the spring. Though setting up could possibly be far more of a matchup matter from week to week, the idea right here is that Kittle will conclude up actively playing starter-style snaps for the Niners at a situation that figures to glance much various than it did a yr back. Kittle’s skill to block and make separation in the passing video game will finally receive him lots of alternatives in his initially period. — Nick Wagoner

Rookie Shaquill Griffin will acquire the setting up appropriate cornerback job.

Past year’s starter, DeShawn Shead, is recovering from a knee damage and is not expected to be ready for the commence of the period. Jeremy Lane is the most loved to acquire his area, but he is coming off a down yr. The coaches raved about Griffin in the course of the spring, and the third-round decide on has scarce bodily measurables. He nonetheless has lots to establish, but specifically if Griffin demonstrates the skill to participate in the ball in the air, he could be the Legion of Boom’s latest shock starter. — Sheil Kapadia

AFC EAST

LeSean McCoy‘s reps in padded tactics will be held to a least.

As McCoy was signing autographs Thursday, when the Bills opened training camp, one particular lover instructed him, “Keep healthy!” The Bills absolutely want the same, which is why McCoy really should be held out of harm’s way as much as possible. Now 29, McCoy has small to establish in the course of training camp, when youthful gamers these types of as Jonathan Williams really should be getting reps. With no a healthy McCoy, the Bills would be staring down a lengthy and arduous 2017 period. — Mike Rodak

Rookie Raekwon McMillan will receive a setting up job.

McMillan, a 2nd-round decide on, could be the starter at one particular of the linebacker spots in 7 days 1. He is buying up the defense perfectly, and the coaching staff members seems at ease with possessing him calling signals. — James Walker

The Patriots will either sign or trade for a defensive conclude.

With Rob Ninkovich retiring and Kony Ealy becoming held out of the initially follow dependent on a non-damage-connected coaching determination by Monthly bill Belichick, the team’s staff at defensive conclude isn’t really as solidified as it at first appeared to be. Immediately after Trey Bouquets, who led the workforce with 7. sacks in 2016, there are some inquiries, so it would rarely be a shock if the Patriots make a considerable go at the situation. — Mike Reiss

Juston Burris will overtake Buster Skrine on the depth chart.

That usually means Burris will develop into the No. two cornerback, pushing Skrine into his former role as the third/slot corner. Jets coaches confess that they underutilized Burris very last period. Inspite of flashing promise as a push-gentleman corner, he was restricted to only 178 defensive snaps. They won’t make that error once more. — Rich Cimini

AFC NORTH

Nick Boyle will leave camp as the setting up limited conclude.

Boyle has been the starter by default this offseason due to the fact of the operate of injuries at this situation, but he’ll proceed to keep onto that job in training camp. He has the size to block and great plenty of hands to be a far more than capable receiver. It won’t be easy. Benjamin Watson (Achilles), Maxx Williams (knee) and Crockett Gillmore (hamstring) are all vying for the place vacated by Dennis Pitta, who was released in June after he re-wounded his appropriate hip. — Jamison Hensley

Jeremy Hill will exit camp as the setting up running again …

… but Joe Mixon will be appropriate on his heels. The Bengals have raved about Mixon and his “off-the-charts” talent. They are inclined to provide some rookies along slowly, but that will not be the situation with the 2nd-round decide on. — Katherine Terrell

Corey Coleman will leave preseason as the third wideout.

Coleman had a wildly extraordinary initially two weeks of camp as a rookie, but his period went south from there, as a hamstring difficulty and a damaged bone in his wrist charge him precious time. Coleman battled far more injuries this spring, but he also has to demonstrate that he can be a polished NFL receiver. He will start off camp as a starter, but Ricardo Louis appears to be ready to seize the place. That would make Coleman a potentially precious slot receiver. — Pat McManamon

Rookie T.J. Watt will be hard to continue to keep off the area, regardless of the presence of James Harrison and Bud Dupree.

The initially-round go-rusher was a fast learner in the spring, with a rapid initially move and great discipline in the defense. If he progresses as the Steelers hope he will, the workforce has the possibility to relaxation Harrison early in the period and get Watt precious snaps alongside Dupree. — Jeremy Fowler

AFC SOUTH

Tom Savage will leave training camp as the setting up quarterback.

Savage entered camp as the No. 1 guy, and even though only two times in, coach Monthly bill O’Brien mentioned he is happy with Savage’s progress. Now, the Texans have also been amazed by how immediately rookie initially-round decide on Deshaun Watson has improved, but at the very least early in camp, it seems probable that Savage will commence 7 days 1. — Sarah Barshop

The Colts will start off 7 days 1 with 8 new starters on defense, such as all four linebackers and each safeties.

Common supervisor Chris Ballard place a top quality on reshaping that team in the offseason. Which is a great matter when you acquire into thought that the device concluded 30th in total defense very last period and has concluded 20th or worse in the NFL in four of Chuck Pagano’s 5 seasons as coach. — Mike Wells

Cam Robinson will acquire the setting up remaining tackle job.

Coach Doug Marrone mentioned that Robinson, the 34th in general decide on this yr, would contend with two-time Professional Bowler Branden Albert to be the starter, but Albert announced his retirement Monday. Robinson worked with the 2nd and third groups in OTAs but was doing work with the initially workforce in camp. He failed to stand out, but he also failed to have any embarrassingly negative plays, which wasn’t the situation with earlier remaining tackle Luke Joeckel. — Mike DiRocco

Rishard Matthews will keep on being a most important weapon in the Titans’ offense.

With the additions of rookies Corey Davis and Taywan Taylor and veteran Eric Decker, Matthews has not gained much attention this offseason. He led all Titans — such as limited conclude Delanie Walker — in obtaining yards and touchdowns in 2016. If opposing defenses treat Matthews like just a guy owing to the Titans’ new weapons, Marcus Mariota will at the time once more be calling his variety for steady connections. — Cameron Wolfe

AFC WEST

Two rookies will make an influence in the offense appropriate from the season’s commence.

A person is expected, but the other is not so expected. Garett Bolles, the Broncos’ initially-round decide on, has shown each the athleticism and perform ethic to receive the setting up remaining tackle job prior to the workforce exits the preseason. It is well worth noting that one particular of the gamers who has been observed aiding Bolles on the area is linebacker Von Miller. Meanwhile, rookie running again De’Angelo Henderson won’t be the starter, but he is an explosive participant who has shown in training camp that he has huge-participate in skill as a runner and a receiver. — Jeff Legwold

Tyler Bray will arise from camp as the No. two quarterback.

Bray has not taken a standard-period snap in his four seasons with the Chiefs, but they held him around for a reason. He has skill. The Chiefs won’t make rookie Patrick Mahomes II the backup unless they’re confident he is ready to participate in. Dependent off in which he was in the course of offseason follow, that time seems to be much off. — Adam Teicher

Andre Williams will arise as a genuine possibility behind Melvin Gordon.

The Boston University solution languished on the sideline for the Chargers most of the 2016 period. Williams, however, created the most of his actively playing time when presented the chance, totaling 87 rushing yards on 18 carries in opposition to the Chiefs in the last standard-period video game very last period. Coach Anthony Lynn wishes to operate the soccer, and the Chargers have to have to reduce the load on Gordon. The hard-running Williams really should receive steady actively playing time if he carries on to acquire as a go catcher out of the backfield. — Eric D. Williams

The Raiders will give Tyrell Adams every single chance to acquire the center linebacker job.

True, Adams, who was promoted from the follow squad very last period, did not participate in a solitary snap on defense. But he did operate with the initially-workforce defense in the offseason method, and seriously, what other option does Oakland have, apart from rookie fifth-rounder Marquel Lee as a genuine MLB? Cory James can also fill in, but he is greater suited for the outside the house, and Ben Heeney is on the NFI List to commence camp. Here is a further prediction: The Raiders will kick the tires on street vets Perry Riley Jr. (recall him?), Rey Maualuga or Zach Orr. — Paul Gutierrez
