Rookie Signal-Callers Step Up; Star Receivers & Edge Rushers Seek Fatter Paychecks

Charles Robinson joins forces with Frank Schwab to delve into the latest NFL news and updates from his training camp tour. The duo kicks off their discussion with the Haason Reddick drama in New York, where Charles believes Reddick’s leverage will eventually dwindle as the situation unfolds. They also touch on JJ McCarthy’s recent surgery for a torn meniscus, a significant setback following his promising performance in preseason Week 1.

Meanwhile, the CeeDee Lamb contract dispute continues, and Charles thinks Lamb’s and Ja’Marr Chase’s holdouts are distinct from Reddick’s due to their greater bargaining power. He predicts a deal will be struck for Lamb but is less optimistic about Chase’s situation.

Charles shares his insights on the rookie quarterbacks he’s observed, providing thoughts on Drake Maye’s slow start, Jayden Daniels’ first preseason action, and Caleb Williams’ remarkable arm talent.

Finally, Frank and Charles wrap up the show by exploring the wide receiver market and how Amon-Ra St. Brown’s contract extension earlier this year has impacted players like Brandon Aiyuk, whom Charles believes might ultimately sign back with the San Francisco 49ers.
