POSSIBLE PS additions

Obada fans need to stop celebrating the roster spot--there will be a S, T,  and possibly at QB (guessing) added---the PS has a rent-free room for Obada only if they choose to move a DE (we have 6 right now).  If we add 2 players to the roster, Obada may not stick.

From our roster, the following stand out (THESE ARE SPECULATIVE):

RB Reggie Bonnafon  (looked good catching and running the ball Thur--good backup for CMC?)

DE Daeshon Hall   (if he is not picked up by another team---I think a 3-4 team could take him)

QB Kyle Allen   (radical idea, but we are carrying 2 QBs--we need a young guy on the PS)

TE Jason Vander Laan

G Taylor Hearn  

C Kyle Friend  (Friend is strong and was pretty good in the run game--not sure if he can play anything except C)

CB Cole Luke  (They almost have to have a CB on the PS roster as it stands now)

WR Austin Duke

DT:  Player from another team's cuts

OT: Player from another team's cuts

I wonder if him making the initial 53 has any effect on his international designation.  Does it take away our ability to use an 11th PS spot on him if we release him after the cut deadline?  Hopefully, he'll stick so it won't be an issue.  But it would suck to keep him, then have to bump another guy in order to get him back on the PS.

Obada is not getting bumped imo. Andre Smith would be the most likely. After Williams and Seymour come back from IR, depending Obada or even Cox Jr maybe indicate which might stay. Do not forget Jacobs or Norris! LB position is just as loaded as any. There are many variables. Obada might, might not get cut but to single him out due to fans pulling for him might reflect a halo effect in desicion making. 

Jacobs vs Norris is one battle of special teamers.

Smith vs Carter Jr would be another battle.

Cox Jr vs Obada will be another to keep an eye on of course.

 

Until IR temps come back those are battles during the first 8 weeks or however long till IR temps are eligible to come back and play again.

Cole Luke over Doss?  Don't be silly!

I believe keeping him on the 53 has nullified that international exemption. And honestly I don't think the team would be making SUCH a big deal if his making the roster only to demote him immediately.

So, we'll have only 10 PS guys.

Here's my guess

QB: Gilbert if eligible / unclaimed. Allen if Gilbert not available

RB: Bonnafon

TE: Baylis or Vander Laan (depends on Vander Laan's health)

WR: Frazier if available

OL Clausell + ??  Two guys for sure, but not sure who gets #2.  Bisnowaty? Eaton? Johnson?

DE Hall if available

DT Norton

DB: Doss, D Cox

Allen over Gilbert? :thinking:

  • Two reasons--Allen is younger and (arguably) has more upside (even though I do not think he will ever succeed with that The Golden Calf of Bristol throwing hitch) and I was not sure if Gilbert had any PS eligibility left.

Obada represents a lot of things bigger than football--he has to be an inspiration to teammates and will be a fan favorite.  I tend to agree with you--my speculation about him was based on the PS international player spot, nothing more.

I was actually happy FOR YOU when he made the team--my first thought.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
