Chandler, Boston, Harper back in today which is sweet.

Cam appears to be resting today, Big Money and Trai Turner still out.

I'm really hopin and prayin we strike it big with Boston.

He's a different breed of Safety than the other guys we have competing and if he came in and was good that would be just superb.

I'm in total agreement here.  Hope he's a good one.  Definitely seems like that ballhawk type.

The way he was walking, Cam appears to still be in pain.

If Boston and Harper aren't going to be IRd, they should start the entire 4th game.

No way Cam plays this week. And that's not a good thing. But you seriously can't risk further injury. We go as he goes.

No Bell.

 

Still no sign of Byron Bell at practice. Unsure why he's not out here

What do you mean exactly by a different breed? I'm not familiar with his game or style.

Athletic. among other things.

[beastson]

Idk about anybody else, and Cam is still young

 

But we have to limit his runs. He's taken too many hits as is in his young career

[CatalystNX]

poo. I hope Cam's alright.

[MHS831]

I literally got mad at Cam when he didn't slide.  Hope this teaches him a lesson without hurting the team.

From nfl.com draft analysis-

 

"STRENGTHS

Can secure tackles in the box when he has a clear path. Drops downhill quickly and can slip into short hole. Vocal leader of secondary. Three-year starter with experience at safety and corner.

 

WEAKNESSES 

Average instincts. Could stand to improve diagnostic ability and anticipation. Choppy pedal and stiff transition. Limited range -- does not explode off the hash or cover enough ground with the ball in the air. Takes some inaccurate angles and struggles to break down in space. Selective hitter and inconsistent tackler in general. Personality could clash with some people."

 

Reads like a project to me.
