Short article on Latimer-Sharp-Tyke Tolbert Denver ties

"It helps a lot," Sharp said, of his familiarity with Tolbert. "A lot of the drills, sometimes he'll use me as a teacher. He'll say things like 'Okay guys, this is how you do this. Watch Hunter or watch Cody [Latimer].' It helps a lot."

Meanwhile, one of the players that Sharp is looking up at on the depth chart is another former teammate, Latimer, who has also spent time with the first-team offense in Beckham's absence.

As it turns out, Sharp and Latimer forged a strong bond in Denver that have helped them both make the adjustment to the Giants and playing in New York.

"It's been a walk in the park," Sharp said, when asked how much having Latimer to lean on has helped him this season. "It's almost like we're back in Denver. The two of us and Khalif Raymond make jokes all the time about how it feels like the Denver Giants. Cody's like my big brother. He's been my big brother since our time in Denver. It's the same thing here. He leads me down the right path, whether it's studying or helping me learn routes, and in return I do the same thing for him. We really try to help each other."
is this a good thing?

Latimer, Raymond, Shepard ....that's a whole lot of non-production in the NFL vying for the third receiver slot.
not crazy when a new regime comes

in and brings tons of guys from their old teams. Smacks of laziness to me. I don't think we're doing too much of it so far but guys like Sharpe, Latimer, Shepard and Stewart weren't exactly in high-demand around the league. Hopefully they aren't getting scholarships here and will have to earn their roster spots.

Mr. Editor, in this day and age that is hardly a "short" article, it wasn't over in 4 shoddy sentences punctuated by click bait sure to help me lose weight.

Number B, I think having hungry guys battling it out is a great thing, you need some guys who just work and keep quiet and ostensibly they have NFL caliber athleticism or they wouldn't be here. I would wager one or two of them actually step up here. It's also got to motivate Mr. Lewis who has talent but seems to disappear and make some bone headed decisions on the field.
don't forget Reeves cut Ed McCaffrey...

in order to sign Sherrard...a 6'5" red zone target for a 6'1" jag...McCaffrey went to Denver ironically and had a good career...

It is remarkable to watch the evolution (or de-evolution) of sports journalism. It's obvious the pressure is on to produce quantity over quality and there is an ever-growing number of "articles" that really are not articles.

I think part of this is also due to the fact that our attention spans as a species have been reduced by programming. People just don't have the patience to read anymore.
