It really looks like he is putting the maximal effort in and now we just have to wait and see how it works out. Right now, lookiing at his condition, plus the extra instruction he is getting.... my money is on him having a yr like the #3 pick he is.

And the small addition of Bosa, Dee, and Kwon won't hurt. Shucks, he also is playing next to Buck. Hmmmm....i like his chances to be a big part of the best DL out there. That statement will have a lot of "IFs" in it, but i can see it.

It's that time of the year when every team is optimistic about their chances but most have a lot of ifs. IF they can stay healthy. IF this player or that player is as good as expected. IF the team can improve in a certain area. It's all part of the game and it changes every year.

Of course...we're all undefeated now.

However IF we stay healthy i like our roster. Last year I couldn't quite say that. There were still a lot of what ifs that had to happen last year. Our skill positions were still unproven. No outside pass rushers to get excited about.

Funny how adding a Bosa and Ford can light a fire under yo ass

THIS IS THE YEAR BABYYYYYY !!!

PROVE THE DOUBTERS WRONGGGGG !!!!

Solly next to DeFo is going to be monstrous.

The Seahawks will try to slow down Ford and Bosa off the edges, and Buckner to some extent and will ignore Solly. Solly will get to Wilson early and often this year is my prediction!

After their last game they may want to pay attention to Thomas too...he was huge in that game.

The Peter Panacy article on the front page about the mental illness battle Thomas has been going through should be a must read for every fan. As someone who has had to deal with mental illness, Panacy speaks the truth about the importance of removing the stigma and getting help when needed if one is to put on a good performance in any area.

For too long, the approach was "just deal with it." That was not only wrong, it made things worse because the sufferer felt hopeless. Now that Thomas has been able to not only deal with it openly, but also help promote awareness in public, his chances of producing close to his draft position are greatly improved.

Here is a great place to begin to learn about the illness and how to get help. Stop the Stigma is a new campaign to bring this killer out of the closet and help folks deal with it.

Honestly if Buckner played against Pocic, he would of had 4 sacks that game.

Don't care if it's Solly, buck, Dee, or baby bosa. As long as Wilson spends all day on his back.

Solly was next to Defo last season, didn't do much. With Ford and Bosa on the edges, that's what will make the line monstrous

Yeah, along with Ford and Bosa it should be special.
