smuvtalker Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Then just ignore me instead of being the overstated police. You are also wrong we have made scheme change after scheme change in recent years which is my point. We have absolutely made scheme change after scheme change. That is a fact no-one can ignore. It is one of the things that has set this franchise back on so many occasions, most notably Rex coming in, inheriting the friggin number four defense, led the league in sacks, and turns them into a 3-4, has pure sackmasters and D linemen dropping back into coverage. And what was the result? Unhappy players, a defense that went from awesome to below average, and an offense that put up top 10 numbers only to be negated by our subpar D. And McDermott is definitely getting rid of players who don't fit his scheme. I do believe that both the Darby and the Ragland cuts were due to not fitting McDermott's scheme.

boyst Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I'm wondering how just 3 months ago we had a solid WR corps with Corey Brown. Now we are thinking we have a weak WR corpse without him. I don't know why we thought he would make the roster 3 months ago and now question it. But I know we do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Romes Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 (edited) Aren't we just going throw Wenning out there to do kneel downs for 4 quarters? Edited August 31, 2017 by Charles Romes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 Very respectfully, GB, and to all of you who list Logan Thomas on the bubble, who is beating him out? Towbridge? Croom? Saxton? I just haven't seen any conversation where anyone of those three beat him out. That said, I actually believe TE has been pretty well set almost since the start of training camp. I don't think any of them beat him out. I think he needs to show something or they will look outside the organisation for their 3rd TE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r00tabaga Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I think we all probably believe 85-90% of the roster is nailed down at this point. So going into the 4th pre-season game give me your 3 guys for whom tonight is make or break in terms of being on that final 53...... I'll start you off: - Brandon Reilly (WR) - Trae Elston (S) - Logan Thomas (TE) Three pretty solid picks. Can't argue with your choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnBonhamRocks Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Really hope the final WR to make the roster isn't kept just because Wenning happens to favor him in Preseason Week 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's No Moon Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Johnathan Williams. He was nicked up last week and got no carries, but ran kick coverage which makes absolutely no sense. Keyvon Seymour. You can't make the club from the tub. Colton Schmidt. I know they cut Rehkow already but Schmidt still stinks. There will be more punters around.
