Guys it's football week!

Honestly that would explain why he was getting turfed so much in preseason. It's a shame but TJ and Walker seem more than capable to fill in

Maybe I'm crazy but I actually think they look cool. Scratch that. I'm DEFINITELY crazy because I'm on here but I still think they look cool.

Honestly my biggest surprise is both Shavers and Moore. I know they have very different skill set but I thought it would be one or the other

I'm a little surprised that they kept both Shavers and Moore. I know theyre very different players

Do we have any word at all on the final roster?

I know most people here would blanch at safety in the first round but I really think we need an elevation there.

For me the biggest surprise that Gore is still there. I mean hells yeah, let's have a stable but RB4 seems like an easy one. Maybe they are going to try to stash him with the extra spots and then waive him when guys return because rosters are set

Honestly he earned it

I also wouldn't rule out something like a Curtis Samuel trade for cap dump. If I read the math right trading him would free up $7 million and be the roster spot that we use to keep Shavers and we swap late round picks

Look if we are going to get nitpicky, how is Walker looking at taking over a spot compared to every other rookie? Hairston was duking it out with Tre before he got hurt. Sanders is the closest and is still well behind Oliver for the spot. He's spent a lot of time on the turf Landon Jackson had some tough early preseason moments. Everyone else is depth right now. This isn't to be Debbie Downer on our rookies. I think you are going to see upgrades on a roster that was already very good by the end of the year. But for all the very real flaws I think Walker is the closest to breaking out

Good section on Walker. He seems to do better on Man rush concept than zone but he was able to quasi 2 gap. It reminds me a bit of Fletcher Cox

His ceiling was always enormous. He walked talked up as a 1st round pick in 2023 before his injury. I don't think he'll ever be a run stuffer but if he can draw doubles that would be fantastic. I think there's very good chance that those two will be out starting interior by 2027

I'd say so. Don't get me wrong, I like Sander's potential and he's filling the shoes of Ed Oliver instead of DaQuan (who I like but is a journeyman at the end of his career for a reason) but at this point I think Walker is more starter ready.

I fully expect Walker to slowly get phased in, but with Larry O on suspension to start the year I think Walker has earned a shot as the second rotation and I think we are looking at DaQuan's replacement/upgrade. Even being a solid starter in year 2 would be a massive steal for a 4th rounder, and I think he has the potential to be even more.
