Lee Ward / Artis Payne Combo

I agree totally. I would even take it a step further and say " I just want to see more Lee Ward" as full back period. How about Lee and Wegher, Lee and Stewart, it's 4th down and goal, ball is on the 2 yard line...no problem...Lee Ward and Mike Tolbert. If ward doesn't make the 53 man roster over Richie Brockel I will be pissed. I'm no NFL talent scout but I can see we have something special in Mr. Lee Ward, gotta make room for Brandon Wegher too! Tough decisions are ahead for DG.

This.  Brockels time has played out. If he makes the 53 over Ward I'm gonna be real upset with this coaching staff. Ward brings something to the team it needs a real punishing blocking FB.

Brockel just taking up a roster spot.  Does nothing special

Waive Folkerts,  use Remmers as backup center,  Williams as backup RT,  keep Ward and Brockel? 

I like this scenario but rather than keep brockel, keep wegher. I just have a good feeling about Wegher and Ward. I just don't think we need both ward and brockel.

I am with the "What exactly does Brockel actually do?" camp.  I know that he is versatile, is a fair to good blocker, but Ward punishes.  The "eye in the sky" don't lie, people.  I am sure that Rivera, a former LB, appreciates a stud FB when he sees one.

Unfortunately or strategically, there will be injuries (actual or not) that put players on the IR.  Ward will find a roster spot.

    • I wonder if the Hornets view Kon and McNeeley more as forwards and plan to ship off Green/Okogie/Smith for center help. I hope they don’t plan to ship off Sexton as I like what he brings to the team. (2) G - Ball, Mann, Simpson (two-way) (3) G - Sexton, Dinwiddie, Connaughton (3) F - Miller, Knueppel, McNeeley, James (two-way) (3) F - Bridges, Williams, Salaun (3) C - Diabate, Kalkbrenner, Plumlee
    • 3 main reasons he was better in 2023 and none of them concern me for his NFL prospects 1. Totally new coaching staff that was a massive downgrade and had god awful play calling and designs, the entire fan base was ready to run the coaching staff out of town a month into their first season and the play caller ended up getting changed because it was so bad. 2. Along with the staff downgrade, his QB played significantly worse after being the Pac 12 Freshman of the Year in 2023.  Constantly missed T-Mac when he was wide open, lost out on a number of TDs and a good amount of yardage, half the time T-Mac still almost made miraculous catches on the bad passes too. 3. He hurt his ankle over the summer and missed all of fall camp only to return to practice a few days before the season started and I think he had to deal with it all season long and was slightly limping at times mid season too, but kept fighting through it to still be a 1st team All American.
    • Good luck to Burns. He’s fine as a third pairing defensemen but Rod is too stubborn to do that.
