With the intriguing battles at WR & RB this season, I am curious who Huddlers would like to see on the final roster. IF you were the coach, who would you choose to keep at this point in the pre-season?

Running Backs:

1. Jonathon Stewart
2. Cameron Artis-Payne
3. Brandon Weigher
4. Lee Ward

5. Mike Tolbert (Missed the cut by 21 votes)
6. Jordan Tolbert
7. Fozzy Whittaker

Wide Receivers:

1. Devin Funchess
2. Ted Ginn Jr.
3. Jarrett Boykin
4. Corey Brown
5. Damiere Byrd
6. Brenton Berson

I would love to see Mike Brown and Boykin get reps earlier in the game against defensive starters.  Same with Wegher.  I think Ward should take Brockels spot, allowing us to still keep either 4 RB or 6 WR.  Brockel adds nothing to this team...he is not an offensive weapon and is a below average blocker.

With the intriguing battles at WR & RB this season, I am curious who Huddlers would like to see on the final roster. IF you were the coach, who would you choose to keep at this point in the pre-season?

Is there any chance we keep 5 RBs/FBs and 5 WRs (with Joe Webb being a #6)?

I'd love to see us keep either:

Stew, CAP, Wegher, Todman, Tolbert  or Stew, CAP, Wegher, Tolbert & Ward.

I really only like 4 WRs on this list at the moment:

Ginn, Funchess, Corey Brown (though he looked awful last night) and now Boykin.

I'm not adverse to keeping Bersin or Cotch as #5.  Mike Brown showed some flash tonight, and Byrd's obviously got some promise too.

But with KB and Hill's injuries, what was once an incredibly exciting WR battle has me now feeling somewhat underwhelmed.  I can only hope Funchess really steps up and becomes a real bright light this season.

Well to be fair, Stewart is making 8 million this year, Tolber makes about 2 million and everyone else makes less than a million.

 

Maybe they used money as a factor...

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think we'd actually save any money (or minimal amounts) if we cut him.

      Redzone Offense vs. KC by drive

      By Icege · Posted

      NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.

      Crazy stat

      The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
