A top-5 pick in the draft projects as...?

He's looking more to his pre-draft form. No matter the position, he's quick off the ball and attacking, which is a good sign. Not sure he's got the finishing moves yet, but maybe that's something that'll come if he keeps up the aggressiveness.

He looks like a totally different guy this preseason. He'll have some flashy plays this year. Strong as hell, and training with Donald in the offseason may have helped his hand work. Donald's hand work is unreal.

What I was hoping Solly would pick up is the insane violence that Donald plays with. Donald's hands are so violent, it's what makes him so disruptive. He doesn't just finesse around a guy, he's so violent in his attack, it's the mix of power and speed, like the Mike Tyson of DLineman.

Not sure everyone sees what he did there
This is really cool.

Sollys dad after he sees that

I hope he balls out.

You can tell something is different with him this year.

I'm not worried about the depth chart at this point. Sunday will answer a lot of questions. Solly just has to keep working and not worry about the draft spot and all that sh*t.

I've compared him to Alex Smith a lot. Once Alex stopped worrying about all the expectations and all that crap he revived his career. Hopefully Sully does the same thing even though his circumstances are quite different.

Nick M. might have something to say about that.

3 years in and not starting. What a bust. I kid, I kid. Kind of disappointed that our starting lineup ends at Ford, Buckner, Day, AA even if it is just base.

It is not who starts but who finishes.

If Sully(is it Sully or Solly?) can get to even a 1/4 of where Donald is we'll have a hell of a player.
In the entire first round of the 2017 draft there are 4 players not listed as a starter on a team.
Solomon Thomas
Taco Charlton
Adoree Jackson
Rueben Foster (injured)

I expect the DL to be very fluid in who plays based on down/distance. Buckner will be an exception, however, even he will take some snaps off.

Stop the run first, then kill the pass. This will result in different personnel and alignments. (posting the obvious )
