(3:01) Are we any closer to figuring out who will take the CB2 spot? (10:50) First-round pick Jihaad Campbell recorded a sack—are expectations getting too high for the rookie? (29:50) How will the depth chart at wide receiver shake out? Will Ainias Smith secure a roster spot after scoring a touchdown today? (34:31) Plus, some leftovers, and thoughts on the ongoing feud with the PHLY guys. Email hot takes: Ringerphilly@gmail.com.
