CJ returning to practice this week!

Straight from the man himself! CJ has plenty left in the tank, regardless of what a lot of folks have said. If fully healthy, Johnson will play well down the stretch, just like last year. My only concern is that we have to make a cut when he comes back to the active roster in 2 weeks.

Edit: I can't embed tweets, sorry. I asked CJ via a tweet if he was returning this week and he replied that he was.

With Funchess having a great game, I wouldn't be surprised to see Bersin taken out.

Great news though.  What a great rotation we'll have.  If we can get Dwan back too for the DT rotation.  I'm assuming we can now limit Allen's snaps a bit, or will we start him with CJ and put Ealy in rotation?  The way Ealy is playing I'm not sure we should cut his snaps.

Either Horton or Bersin gets the axe.

I thought it could be Bersin but I have a hrad time thinking that we would carry 6 DE's. That's really overkill for that position and Bersin has been playing a fair amount of special teams recently.

If I could cut anybody, it would be Dickson. That guy is a complete liability. Won't happen though, Rivera loves his vets... even if they suck.

What have you been watching? Ed Dickson is as good as any #2 TE in the league. Could probably start for some teams.

I'd ask you the same question. His blocking has been God awful, did you see him whiff on the reverse yesterday? He also has a whopping 69 yards on the year.

More evidence of poor usage.

hes a pass catching TE that they inexplicably use to block.

You're right that his blocking hasn't been that good but do you really want to cut the #2 TE when the next guy is Scott Simonson who has barely played a down in the NFL and would leaves us without a #3 TE?

    • Nobody is saying we don't need it, just that we have bigger needs elsewhere, and that type of WR is actually something that is often found in the mid rounds, you just have to scout and evaluate properly. Here's another way of looking at why WR in the 1st shouldn't even be considered an option. Looking only at players currently on the team, what position group would you feel strongest about 4 years from now? I'm not sure there is a better answer there than WR, as you have to think T-Mac is our best player on the team in 4 years (Brown is the only current player I think there is even an argument to be made over T-Mac there), with Coker not far behind. Our OL is too old to be considered, my opinions on Bryce is well known, Hubbard will be done by then and the rest of the RB is an unknown, Off-ball LB is maybe our biggest need, we only have 1 legit safety, it's certainly not TE, and our 2nd best CB right now will be 33 by then.   Brown should still be a beast as he'll only be 31, but nobody else on the DL projects to be that good in 4 years.  Edge rusher with Phillips, Scourton, and Princely is probably the only other possible answer than WR. So yes, that fast/shifty type of WR is 100% a need of ours, but we have so many other bigger needs both in the immediate and future, that to me, taking a WR in the 1st for the 3rd year in a row and having hit on another WR in the same time frame, just makes zero sense both currently and looking into the future.
    • Laughing at Slayton (Mooney or Calvin Austin III), but telling me that Coker is the next best thing since sliced bread...You laughing at Theo Johnson in reference to our guys too? LOL No one in their right mind thinks Nabers is anything but a stud (definitely top 10 if not 5 potential). You do realize that Thomas was in a new system with a furst-time coach last year (with a questionable QB to boot)? And yet still, it's possible that he eclipses even T-mac (not saying that he will). They didn't even mention Travis Hunter. In any event, we're not in the top half. Draft another legit receiver, and we will be. 
    • Absolutely, very fair assessment of the team.
