QB: Cam, DA, Webb

HB: Stewart, CAP, Fozzy, Todman

FB: Tolbert, Brockel

WR: Ginn, Funchess, Brown, Cotchery, Norwood, Bersin

TE: Olsen, Dickson, Simonson

LT: Oher, Chandler

LG: Norwell, Silatolu

C: Kalil

RG: Turner, Scott

RT: Remmers, Williams

 

Swoll makes it due to him being the best blocking TE on the roster.  Soimonson and Lucas can't do that yet. ..

You may be right, Cam seems to be a big fan of his, too. I would like him to make it, I just made the projection based on the injury really.

Can't see them keeping more than 26 on offense, gotta have some bodies for the defense. Probably some combination of 9-10 DL, 5-6 LB, 8-10 DB for a total of 24 on defense. As for the offense:

3 QB (Personally I'd drop Webb for another RB or WR)

4 RB: Stewart, Tolbert, CAP, Todman

6 WR: Funchess, Cotchery, Ginn, Bersin, Philly, Norwood

4 TE: Olsen, Dickson, Lucas, Bricker

9 OL: Kalil, Norwell, Turner, Oher, Remmers, Williams, Scott, Silatolu, Chandler

26 offense, 24 defense

Todman is Fozzy plus long speed. I'm a Fozzy fan, but he and Todman are too similar and Todman wins out in ability and potential. 

Fozzy has more than enough speed and also has the ability to break tackles. Additionally, Todman is only a year younger than Fozzy, so I don't buy the potential argument. If Todman was 22, sure, but the age factor is negligible.

I won't argue age, because honestly to me it doesn't matter in this case. But it is just a fact that Todman is faster. He can do everything Fozzy can do and possibly more, Like I said before, I am a Fozzy fan, but I know what I see. Todman has the long term potential because of his rare ability to accelerate and pull away from the pack.

So, we are not taking into account Todman's knack for mental errors and the runs for negative yardage?

So you are saying you didn't see Fozzy take hits for a loss or whiff on a blocking assignment? Because I have. It's about what you have in a player and what you can mold them to be, Fozzy is a very serviceable role player, no doubt. But Todman has the athletic edge without giving up too much in the mental error department. But I wouldn't even be upset if we kept Fozzy over Todman. I will, however, be upset if we cut Wegher, Wegher is a future 20+ carry horse for a team.

I have seen Todman forget when he is suppose to be on the field and run to the wrong hole multiple times. Not just missing blocks. He would have been cut 2 weeks ago if he answered to Belichick.

As for Wegher they punished him the most of any back in the preseason tonight. They repeatedly tossed him into the A gap and Skipper told him not to bounce it outside after the first run he bounced outside. They have not done that to any RB the entire preseason. CAP lives on finding his own hole and not the designated one. Todman runs it east to west looking for a crease.

And I discount draw plays because those are gimmick runs trying to catch the defense sleeping on 3rd and long. Really no work by the RB. It is there or it isn't - all dependent on the defense.

Wegher has been the only RB that has looked good in the red zone with the defense crowding the running game - just wish we saw Wegher against the 1st team defense for 3 to 5 carries.

      Derrick Brown appreciation thread.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.

      Joe Person: Ickey is expected to be extended, Mays is someone we want to keep long term, TE, LB and OLB are our biggest needs heading into the offseason

      How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.

      I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
