Well, tomorrow is the final day of the preseason. Although most have given up on the regular season, us other fans still want to see who makes the team and can build for the future of the organization. Being one of the younger teams in the NFL with a lot of promise, it's tough to see who will clear waivers or open the coaches eyes.
I think we can all agree on who is guaranteed to make the team barring injury or jaw-dropping surprise;
QB: Fitzpatrick, Jackson, Smith
HB: Jackson, Spiller
TE: Chandler, Smith
WR: S. Johnson, Jones, Nelson, Graham,
OT: Glenn, Hairston, Pears
OG: Levitre, Urbik, Rinehart
C: Wood
DE: Williams, Anderson, Kelsay
DT: Williams, Dareus
OLB: Barnett, Moats, Morrison, Scott
MLB: Sheppard
CB: Gilmore, Williams, McKelvin
S: Byrd, Wilson, Searcy
ST: Moorman, Sanborn
Who fills out the rest? It's a straight crap shoot IMHO, but I want to know what you guys have seen that I haven't. There are 36 players I find to be locks, so who are the 17 others?
HB: Choice - The White drafting is a bust. Reminds me of a certain Dwayne Wright...
FB: Dickerson - I don't see Corey being a huge part of Chan's offense. I am fine with either but it would be nice to have such a well-rounded player on O.
WR: Hagan, Easley - I don't see this FO giving up on Marcus... I really don't.
TE: Free Agent - Brock is a joke and Caussin is injured.
OL: Asper, Young - Asper gives us the swing, and Young should beat out Sanders.
DE: Moore - Size and speed to be a good rotational backup.
DT: Johnson, Carrington - Again, this regime chose Carrington, they want to see what he can do. The casualty of the overpaid DLineman is Dwan Edwards.
OLB: Bradham - A mid rounder, could watch and learn
ILB: Carder - I really don't know about McKillop. He seems to have the leg up but all of Tank's upside (AND THE NAME!) makes him too hard to let go. He can pull the Chris White his first year and be a ST stud and valued backup.
CB: Rogers, Brooks - Sorry T. McGee, it's been a great run but age and injuries...
S: Howell - Just heard and have seen good things out of him.
K: Lindell, Potter - I really wished that it would be one or the other... but this team spent a draft pick on a kicker, and this team is in debt (somewhat) to Rian Lindell. Both should make the team, and Potters beastly leg should make it so ST specialists are obsolete, which sucks because I was a gunner and kick returner... After this year, I hope that Potter can attempt some field goals and eclipse Lindell with his age and ability. Give me a Steve Christie beast kick over a Lindell hit-or-miss.
The regular season needs to start... I'm THIS bored...
