Artis Payne, Wegher.  Artis Payne because he deserves an extra year to prove himself before that mythical 2017 running back class comes out.  Wegher as long as he is making progress, we hid him on the roster all year long for a reason and I don't feel like its just because he can play special teams personally.  Fozzy is a nice running back to have on the roster but we know his ceiling.

Sound reasoning.

Honestly, I haven't seen much from Wegher besides preseaso. CAPs game where he had 100 years sits well with me. Fozzys screen for a TD against Zona in the Wildcard game two years ago will forever be remembered by me. I don't know why, it was just cool. So, those are my picks.

SImple.  You pick the 2 guys who show the most in preseason and up to final cuts.  The guys with the inside track are obviously CAP and Fozzy.  It is up to Wegher to show the coaches they have to keep him because he brings great special teams as well as starter potential when Stewart gets injured.  If you want to be the man, you have to beat  the man............

Do u make sure each gets time against first and second defenses?

Yes. Rest Stewart since you already know what you have in him. Play him a series or two each game, maybe even later in the game. Just so he gets game experience with any changes put in place. Then the other 3 rotate in to ensure they play against ones and twos. 3rd game should have 0 plays for stewart.

Young guns. CAP seems to be a patient guy, or at least running. He reminds me of an old man I have no idea why. Big fan of him snagging us 8 yards. Wheger reminds me of a Skinny Tolbert. If Tolbert got hurt I would like to see Brandon do what he does.. great catching out of the backfield. Strong guy to take blocks.. pretty damn explosive as well. I feel like these 2 guys can grind out a running game.. and that is what we do.

 

I love Fozzy.. but I think these 2 younger guys are more well rounded and can only get better.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
