Great job of backside blocking - keeping up with it for the whole play.  A coach can really work with that effort and athleticism. 
Looks like he has to learn how to turn into a tree stump 2-3 steps into the pass-blocking engagement, though.
yeah he looks pretty good for a 26 year old who just started playing OL two years ago.

Imagine this kid could've really been something had he switched to OL at 18 as a true frosh then played 4-5 years at tackle in college at Michigan. Jeem tried to get the kid to move to OT but he had dreams of being a star TE like Gronk or Kelcee.

Jeem turning a WR that should've been drafted higher than he was into a 7th rounder....same thing happened with DPJ- who Jeem turned into a 6th rounder.

Ronnie Bell going to play in the NFL and play well, and play much better than a 7th rd pick imo. And people wonder why Jeem is struggling to 'croot 5* WR's....have to put WRs in the top three rounds of the NFL draft continually with good chunk of 1st rounders (like OSU has done for the last decade) before they are gonna line up to come play for you....


By far the biggest winner of the 49ers' offseason program was rookie seventh-round pick Ronnie Bell, whose play in OTAs and in training camp put him in a position to make the 49ers 53-man roster. He continued his stellar play against the Broncos, and he finished with 7 receptions for 114 yards. Bell was effective on screens, crossers, and deep outs—the usual staple for the 49ers offense. His work as a blocker was no joke as well.

WV kid who went on to star at one of the state’s DII schools is making an impression as possible QB2 behind Justin Fields in Chicago.  He set the all divisions record for TD passes in college at 159.  The Bears picked him up as an UFA.  Would love to see him make the roster.

CJ Stroud named Houston Texans starting QB. I think Stroud will be the offensive rookie of the year and Justin Fields will be the NFL offensive breakout player of the year. 

also...if I am the Bears or Texans I am hounding the Colts everyday to try and make a deal for Jonathan Taylor.

I think it will be a learning year for Stroud.  The offensive line for Houston is horrible. 

on a positive note he seems to have established an excellent connection with former Wolverine Nico Collins.

and that's why the Lions traded TJ Hockenson, who I think is a really good NFL TE, but not the elite of the elite and certainly not worthy of the top 10 overall draft pick they used on him....

Vikqueens just handed Hockenson a $69 million, 4 year deal @ $17+ mil per year with $42 million guaranteed. He's making more per year in '23 and beyond than Travis Kelce, Darren Waller, or George Kittle. Those guys are worth the money. Hockenson is not.

Which rookie QBs are to start?  Didn't Richardson get the nod?  That fooled me.  Stroud is not a shock of course.  Young also?
