damnnnn. Manyyy things can be speculated about this. Godfrey going on IR, Teal getting cut. Munnerlyn, Wesley, Wilson getting cut. Remember the way the CBs have been coming in has always been Gamble, Marshall, Wilson, Wesley, Martin, Munnerlyn. With Martin and Munnerly switchin between the #5 and #6 spot. I doubt they'll cut Wesley because he's a beast on ST. Wilson has been the #3 CB.

There is also the possibility Taylor could be cut as well. Or maybe they cut one of the Offensive tackles Williams or Schwartz.

Personally, I have no idea who they'll cut if Godfrey ISN'T going to be put on IR. I kinda lean towards Munnerlyn because obviously the coaching staff didn't think too highly of him at PR since they went after Jones. And he's been battling Martin with the #5 spot. Martin is a high draft pick, so I guess they'll cut Munnerlynn IF they dont cut one of the tackles.

Punt returning notwithstanding, Munnerlyn has looked to be a better corner than Wilson -- and in his rookie preseason, no less. I really think Captain can be a special talent given time. For that matter, I think he'd also be a good returner. He showed some potential in that area. If any of our corners go, it's Wilson. Martin and Wesley are backup safetys, and Martin can play the nickel.

Martin has an injury as well, and judging how he's played in the preseason, I wouldn't be surprised to see them "redshirt" him on the IR.

Munnerlyn won't get cut. do you have to cut a player b/f moving them to PS? we have a spot (or 2?) left.

Yes. Frankly, I dont get all the hype about Munnerlyn. I didn't see hardly anything out of him during preseason at CB. He was always the 5th or 6th CB to enter the game. And I dont get the criticism of Wilson. He may have had a few bad plays early in preseason, but I saw him get better with each game.

at first it was classified as a hyperextended knee, but then turned into a "bruised knee", which could be anything. Remember Foster's "bone bruise" that ended up resulting in microfracture surgery? I'm not suggesting this is as severe, but Martin could miss some time. Given that he wasn't doing very well in preseason and was for all intensive purposes beaten out by a seventh rounder, I don't think being placed on the IR is out of the realm of possibility.

That's the thing: I saw far more missed plays from Wilson than Munnerlyn. True, Wilson saw more playing time, but this will also be his third year on the roster without securing a starting gig. How many more years are we going to keep him on the roster if he can't convincingly win the nickel position?

Not only that, but Munnerlyn would be a much better special teamer than Wilson.

      Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
