Not activating CAP yesterday is baffling

Bersin over CAP? Wait, what?

 

Stew had an ankle injury all week. We all know from past experience that when an ankle or anything else is hurt, a player is 10x more likely to injure something else as a result of his body compensating for the current injury. 

Welp, that happened yesterday, like clockwork. 

I said last week that CAP would be activated because of this, but he was not. Luckily, Fozzy was up to the task. 

Anyways, should Bersin ever be activated over CAP considering Stew's history?

Agree, this was really a surprise.   I'm guessing we activated Bersin for ST in place of Webb?  I haven't looked at the snap counts yet to see how many snaps he played. 

Glad it worked out well with Fozzy and he had a HUGE game, but boy things were looking really really dicey in the 1st when Fozzy was getting checked for a concussion and Stew was out.

Hopefully lesson learned.  I guess the team didn't think Stewart would be out this early.

We need to have a very solid plan behind Stewart.  Fozzy had a good game aside from the fumble.  He was fast, cut well, and wasn't completely poo in the pile.  Tolbert's best days are behind him.  He can make a play here and there, he was sucking wind real bad at points.  Time to maybe let him lose some weight or something.  CAP has potential, and made some good plays in the preseason, but is he the kind of back who can carry is even 200 times a season in a committee?

I'm worried about our RB depth.

Maybe since he has an A1 Misdemeanor charge on the docket they're assuming he'll eventually have to serve 21 games when another player is caught on video hurting a mother and children committing a similar A1 Misdemeanor offense.  At this point they're just beating the shield to the punch.  Smart.

Knowing  J Stews  injury history,, bad ankle going into the game..  

I would have thought CAP would be activated..   

I'm wondering if  there is just something,, as fans,, we're missing something when it comes to CAP.

If there is such concern he just cannot be activated when he needs to be, cut his ass and get another RB in here. Why keep a player on the roster if you won't activate him? Put him on the PS.

      Dave in a presser gassed up Anthony Tyus III and dying to see him on the field.  I mean 3 is all that needed right, and Dan loves etienne. He's one year filling in his body. If brooks is back, toss in chubba, thats 3.

      After seeing hits in the last two UDFA pools, I do not in this group sorta of a let down after I gassed myself up.  Not like I know of their games, but just expected more. The duke DT only has to beat out hunte (2025 UDFA) or Ray (DL coach's kid) or even Cam Jackson mid 2025 5th.  I thought they would bring in more edges, IOL, TEs, etc...

      The Icky knee didn't explode draft

      My 2 favorite picks, since you didn't ask? 3. Brazzell II.  A 1000 yard WR with 4.37 speed and checks all the boxes for a Z Wide Receiver.  IN THE THIRD ROUND!!! 5.  Sam Hecht.  I think he will take over as the starter at some point this season and never look back.  IN THE FIFTH ROUND. Runner Up:  2. Hunter:  We were targeting a DT early in this draft because we did very little to replace Robinson in free agency.  Hunter was our guy and he will start. In addition to that, you got a starting tackle that should man one side of the new OL we will build for Bryce's second contract. A starting WR, offensive lineman, defensive lineman and possible Offensive tackle (at some point during this year from this draft will start.  UNREAL. In addition, I don't doubt that Wheatley (5th round) takes the FS job by next year and Lee III is Jackson's replacement in 2027.   Finally, even Kuwatch should be a special teams demon and LB depth.   Last year's draft was so good it was ugly.  This one will turn out to be uglier.  No offense Basbear--this ain't about you.
