So who gets the roster spot?

[KillerKat]

For those saying putting Hill on the 53 man squad is useless because he'll be inactive, that isn't necessarily true. Him and Bersin can switch between the inactive and active roster based on the matchups. If more speed is required, Hill will be active. If not, Bersin will.

[Jeremy Igo]

Reaves.

Reaves, only one that makes sense at this point

[JawnyBlaze]

I know Reaves is most likely to get it but I'd really like to see what Seastrunk could do in our offense. I know a lot of people were clamoring for him during draft season.

I would also really like us to pick up Rambo to the PS. I very much wanted him in the draft. He might have been sucking so far for the Redskins, but he could do very well in our D. Just look at Mitchell. And Rambo still has lots of time to learn and get better.

[MHS831]

Didn't Reaves get hurt in preseason though?

 

Is he fully recovered?

 

I am not sure.  I would rather see Seastrunk, to be honest.

Assuming you believe he's a better player. 

 

He wouldn't know the offense very well at all, though.  How do you deal with that?

I think he could be a different player--not sure about better.  I am guessing he can't pass block well--based on the reason most young RBs with talent struggle early and his college experience.  

 

Having said that, maybe they could teach him some screen packages--sweeps, draws, etc.  However, I am not sure I would have him in there with Cam throwing the ball with the RB in to pick up the blitz.

 

That is all speculation.

 sign Bacarri Rambo to the PS who has a higher upside than Lester IMO

 

 

 

With you on that one... I always considered Rambo a better SEC player than Lester.  Quicker player IMO.

[Mr. Scot]

We will likely end up with an open spot on the PS when this is done.

 

Rambo hasn't looked good, but as I recall there was a time Darius Butler wasn't so good, and good coaching fixed him.

 

(sadly, it wasn't our coaching)

If Panthers sign a RB from the practice squad, it'd be Darrin Reaves before Lache Seastrunk. He's still digesting the playbook.

There ya go.

Avant could miss the game too so it's possible they could add Hill.

[CatalystNX]

I'd be fine with Bersin playing in place of Avant. He needs to see the field more anyway.

[Mr. Scot]

Quoted from the presser...

 

Rivera says RB Darrin Reaves or WRs Stephen Hill / Marcus Lucas could be elevated from the practice squad to provide depth.
