he looked pretty fluid last night
I watched him last night

(he's a relative of a friend) and I thought he played pretty well, especially since, I believe, he has been at LT rather than RT before last night.

good size and smart was the scouting report.
my dad was his HS coach

we are rooting for him hard.
whether he makes the team or not he should be on the practice squad.

he reminded me of a young doug riesenberg.
Donnelly is

more than likely cut and added to the practice squad.

I think he is a better athlete than Cleary (better feet), but you learn a lot from who plays when in the 3rd exhibition game. Donnelly was the 5th tackle to enter the game. And remember we have Beatty as well. The math works best for him being cut and given time to develop on the practice squad with an eye toward next season.

Under normal circumstances, he might compete for the swing tackle job.

But it appears that until Beatty returns, the starting guards will double as backup tackles. I don't think there will be a pure third OT unless Newhouse gets demoted in favor of Schwartz.
I doubt

he lasts the season on the practice squad without some other team grabbing him.

He obviously got some good instruction in high school and good luck to the kid; I hope he makes it.
in HS they ate up

Bjorn Werner of the Colts --- the kid has talent and wants to be good. He just needs to anchor better and build on his frame.
Cleary....

was in earlier then Donnelly and looks pretty good at LT. In the first two games Cleary followed Flowers and saw a lot of snaps at LT, Donnelly played at garbage time and did not look better then Cleary.
