Rivera releases first Depth Chart

[Jackofalltrades]

I tried to warn everyone.

I gaurantee Edwards will not be cut. Rivera has said, the more things a WR can do, the more valuable they are, i.e., Special Teams, or handling kickoffs or punts. Edwards would make this roster before Lafell or Clowney.

Waiving Clowney makes the most sense as far as investment, but he's been the only steady guy so far in camp outside of Smitty.

That's seven then, which definitely will not happen. Somebody has to go...the numbers won't work. Pilares is a fifth rounder coming off surgery...not to much of a risk stashing him on the PS.

If we do only carry five, who's the odd man out? Also, if we do carry six WRs where does the offense spare the other player?

Well Edwards won't be cut like you said. That's just silly. We're carrying 6 and it'll be Smith, Gettis, Lafell, Edwards, Pilares, and then the 6th will be down to Naanee and Clowney but the evidence says Naanee at the moment.

Our Dline across the board is 92, 93, 94, 95 :lol:

I thought when we drafted Ziemba he would fight for the RG spot but I guess he's a Otah insurance policy

[Jrock88]

Just noticed the second chart had Charles rushing from the blind side... SEXY

Even though he was a beast at left DE.

[Doyle]

Pay no attention to this until the start of the final preseason game.

[CatMan72]

It will be interesting to see if Norwood can hold up at LDE.

[MadHatter]

That it explains it, thanks.:D Yet how come Everette Brown isn't starting then?

Because Norwood is outperforming him in camp

[pantherclaw]

What kind of sucks is we finally got some WR talent here and a couple of them won't make the cut.

that's a good problem to have.

[MadHatter]

Well Edwards won't be cut like you said. That's just silly. We're carrying 6 and it'll be Smith, Gettis, Lafell, Edwards, Pilares, and then the 6th will be down to Naanee and Clowney but the evidence says Naanee at the moment.

Pilares and Clowney for the last spot....tough call.

[MadHatter]

Clausen over Cam!? wtf?

this is the depth chart for preseason game #1.

Rivera has already said that he plans to start both Cam and Clausen in the preseason....wants to see each against #1 defenses.

[ncbobcat]

Well Edwards won't be cut like you said. That's just silly. We're carrying 6 and it'll be Smith, Gettis, Lafell, Edwards, Pilares, and then the 6th will be down to Naanee and Clowney but the evidence says Naanee at the moment.

I realize Edwards won't be cut, but MY rationale for putting him so far down the depth chart is because outside of Pilares who is still an unknown, the others are better pure wideouts than Armanti. Edwards is still a project and wisely he realizes the wildcat packages and STs is going to earn him spot more than his WR abilities. If Clowney continues to tear it up in camp, that's going to be one tough choice to make.

[Zithers]

didn't read thread

why is thomas at SLB? he's always played WLB. that has to be a typo, right?

[Mother Grabber]

Wonder how long it will take McClain to take over the starting DT spot. 5min into the game on Sat?
