Roster Surprises

Who do you think will be the biggest surprises on the roster???

 

1.  Andrew Raym - Looked good today.. Think Moton, Lewis, Corbet, Hunt, Icky, BC, Yosh, Zavala, are the core OL guys.  Yosh isn't 100% so I think it makes sense to keep an actual center and Anderson.  This allows BC to focus on being a the swing tackle.

2.  Jordan Matthews makes the team.  Ian Thomas needs to either go the the PUP or get cut.  His energy and work ethic is needed on this team.

3.  ISM gets cut for David Moore

I don't see ISM getting cut for Moore unless he's banged up bad.  Neither are very good but ISM has the special teams thing going for him.

I was pretty surprised with how Raym played.  Never even heard of the guy and didn't hear his name called today.

Agree on both points. 

Would be nice to have some surprise depth at OL - especially at the center position.

Not sure what game you watched but ISM won the returner job today. He’s not getting cut, he might go to short term IR if his injury is bad enough and that opens the door for Moore to get an early season roster spot. 

And I agree on Matthews and Raym. Matthews looks like a steal and he has a roster spot already sealed up. Raym might be a guy who they stash on the practice squad or he might outright take Cade Mays spot. Who knows. Good on Morgan for finding guys who can play either way.

I can say that, after today, I would not be surprised to see us grab a CB by Wed.  

Surprise?  If Brooks were ready, I would say Sanders--but it makes no sense to let him go because Dumbass signed him to a big guaranteed contract. 

#71 at RG.  Mays cut.

Maybe we can still find a team dumb enough to give us a stale grilled cheese or a half used pack of adult diapers for Sanders you never know.

Word on the street is, you got the most defined 6-pack. Is that true, Ricky?

Let's just say I do my muscle curls when I have to. I also make my step son Brayden do them as well but he isn't very good at them so I have to slap him occasionally.

Yeah with a prime pre injury Matthews would be the #2 WR on this team easily. Switching to TE should buy him a few years if he stays healthy. He's 2 years younger than Thielen and doesn't have to be a burner going against linebackers. Haven't really looked at this blocking but I don't think would be his major role in the rotation

Jalen Coker and Andrew Raym both make the 53. TMJ will be traded to a WR needy team for like a conditional 6th or something. Cade Mayes gets cut. The one player who I'm curious to see what happens to is Raheem Blackshear.

He won’t. Just watching the kickoff returns and it should be obvious that Moore can’t be the second returner (most teams have two guys out there). Moore went back on a ball and caught it. He had to stop and then go and he hit to the 14. ISM catches balls in stride like they teach OFs in baseball when they have to throw out a guy on a SF fly. You could tell the difference immediately.

If we cut I for Moore for returns then it’s just another feather in the cap of crappy personnel decisions we need to stop making. Neither Moore, nor ISM should be getting significant WR snaps so special teams is the only decision.

      We looked like a competent NFL team PIE thread

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
