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.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By csx · Posted

      I just dont get the worry over losing a practice squad player that just went undrafted. Everyone just made their selections. The chances of a team wanting to sign him to an active roster after not selecting him is very low.  If that interested they would have taken him late to evaluate in person. As far as I can tell two qbs were signed off another teams practice squad last season and they were both going in to their 5th season.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By frankw · Posted

      I enjoyed reading this thread and the usual banter that follows. The only silver lining I can identify right now is we do actually have a couple of young QB's behind him and we do have a nice roster on both sides of the ball built around the most important position. So if the team overall shows some promise but we still falter largely due to a lack of consistent passing output (again) hopefully the decision makers can be free to make the best decision for the team going forward after the conclusion of this upcoming season.

      I don't really follow the team anymore due to a variety of reasons and consequently have largely stopped posting but I agree that this is a lovely website and community. This forum probably kept me around for years longer than I would've stuck otherwise because of how difficult it was to stop checking multiple times a day. Especially appreciate how lax the moderation tends to be compared to a lot of places, the crew here does a great job. Out of curiousity I decided to try making a new account (solely for testing purposes) to see what exactly is wrong with the sign up process. The issue seems to be that it never sends you an account verification email, thus making it impossible to complete registration. This is likely something to do with the email server upstream, hope it gets fixed. Also, lol
