some interesting thoughts here

Chester has gotten a vote of confidence on more than one occasion so I can't see him leaving. But things can always change.

Good article. Very doubtful we keep 10 olineman. IF we do go with 9. You got the starting 5 and Moses, Compton, Long, Kojo. Ribeye is gone and the 7th round pick wont make the 53. The ILb we drafted should make the team and I believe we keep 5ILb's b/c of special teams. The WR core should only be 5. And the safety spot should be 5 b/c Robinson or Davis add value at special teams. I can not see the three 6th round picks making the team. Probably practice squad.

The trade down only gave us Kojo as far as the final 53 are concerned. Not a fan of the trade down at all.

we dont know that now do we . there isnt any reason to believe the kid from VT cant make it . the center could too if he beats out larsen

i have no issue with the trade at all . i like the fact he added more players instead of spending it on a wr who cant show up to interviews , doesnt get his injury rechecked and might not be able to knock grant off the roster

i dont see the big deal in passing on jabar gafney . if we get a starter from that deal then great . if we get some solid special teamers i am ok with it

what we dont need is a guy who will catch 5 passes and dresses out for maybe 3 games because he cant play special teams

So the VT kid is going to be out T. Robinson and A. Davis for a special teams role?

 

[skinsdad62]

why not ? he is scott's pick not robinson or davis

Hayward, Robinson, and Davis were brought here b/c of there veteran special teams play. The problem on special teams is Kai's kickoffs. By him not being able to kick the ball to force a touchback puts a damper on the special teams play.

well will see. I just cant see the 6th and 7th round picks making it.

The mid-late rounds are kinda scots shit, so let's see how camp plays out

I really like Spaight in the 6th. Looks like he could contribute on STs almost immediately, especially given what we have seen last 2 years. And his smarts with studying film and loving to tackle remind me of a London Fletcher type.

the ark lb was our 5th round pick. Yes he will make the team b/c of weak ILB depth and special teams.

I think he will start at some point this season. Everything I read about him makes me think future captain
