Will Curtis Samuel be active?

He has been full go the past couple of practices. I really doubt he's inactive. 

Best guess at the seven inactive players:

Harrison Butker

Brad Kaaya

Daeshon Hall

Jarred Norris

Jeremy Cash OR Ben Jacobs  (one or the other)

Cameron Artis-Payne

Cole Luke

Norris is one of our best special teams coverage guys. I doubt he is inactive.

I'm guessing the new S (I forget his name - not Kevon) will have little to no clue as to the scheme and that he is inactive. But Kevon was mentioned as being closer to ready because McD in Buffalo.

Demetrius Cox -- Normally I'd tend to agree with you, but I think he plays out of sheer need for the depth at the position. With Cole Luke dealing with the ankle that leaves us with 4 corners (including Seymour) and just 3 other safeties. I suppose Coleman can slide over and play strong if needed and Worley can be an emergency safety, but there is enough depth other places to have 7 inactive shirts. I think Cox will be on call to play

    • Possible, he is physical and a forchecker but not a needle mover, but i wouldnt mind it, although I think we have enough 4th line grinders right now between Carrier Robinson and Janakowski  down there, i actually really love our 4th line.            We need scoring in the top 6, and a RHD at this point its definitely coming via trade.            Rasmus Andersson I hear may be on the market, it feels like every couple of seasons someone links us to Erik Karlsson.       As far as centers go,  Marco Rossi (even though we have a ton of smurf already)     Jordan Kyrou is an intriguing option if he is available.           At this point i think Rod should just move Jarvis to his natural center position to give us a 1B center...   yes hes also a smurf but he plays way bigger than he is stylistically.

    • The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.
