Per S.Reed. took all first team snaps today plus had first team reps this past friday. Dolphin game will be interesting to see what transpires. Tre Boston may be warming the pines if this continues. May the best man win.

Harper is the one that should be riding the pine. Boston is younger and better. One weakness of Rivera is not fielding the best 22 possible. 

Why does everyone assume that Boston is better than Harper? Boston has not looked impressive so far this off-season while Harper finished the season strong and had a good perfomance versus buffalo

I wouldn't say this is a common occurrence with Rivera but I do think Boston should be starting. He was terrific last season. I bet we see a rotation and injuries do happen so I doubt Boston rides the bench all year

you can disagree with who he picks but I assure you that he thinks he is picking the best 22 and his coaching staff agrees. So it isn't his opinion alone and if he thinks someone else is better he will be putting him in then. To assume he would not do it to protect vets is beyond stupid given he started 7 rookies in a playoff game which is a record. John Fox maybe but not Rivera

I'm on board with this. If anyone watches the preseason games over with a DVR and takes advantage of the pause, rewind,etc. and looks closesly you'll see a million more times what you thought you initially saw. I was a Harper hater last year because I saw him being to slow to make a play like everyone else here and there. That being said, after watching the SS run support after he left the game against Buffalo, it made the idea of him being the starter much easier to digest. 

Physical attributes only take you so far. Knowing how to diagnose a play, where to be at the right time can more than compensate for lacking in natural physical skill set or speed. 

Also I am more convinced that Rivera is willing to experiment and be thorough in his analysis of who the best guys to be on the field are, after seeing him give players different opportunties to run with the first string in camp and the multitude of different personnel packages we saw against the Bills.

Nice! He's been one of my favorite pickups since the day we signed him. Excited to see what he can do behind this defensive front of ours.  Love the tenacity he plays with.  He can get frustrating at times (Eagle fans know that) but he can really turn it on.
