I am trying to look at both the FB and RB situation beyond Double Trouble -- Fiammetta and this got me thinking...

Sutton played very well for us last year and even managed to step in as a FB when we needed help. Bottom line, he is a type of player we should have on the team. Goodson has had a decent camp but he hasn't shown too much on the field. I believe though he has a good deal of upside and is in a good position to make the team from the perspective of how much they have used him in camp. So, my question is are we gonna have 4 running backs? Because I find that a very unlikely scenario. Would it make sense to put Sutton as a FB on our final roster and move RaShawn Jackson (Who I think is a steal and is strong as crap) to the Practice Squad for his first year? Discuss

Haven't heard much about Fiammeta - I really hope he excels and makes one of these guys expendable. I think you can pretty much pencil in Sutton as a RB and I doubt they'll risk putting Goodson on the PS yet. Think Jackson and the dude from Richmond are put on the practice squad.

we had four tail backs last year. Williams, Steward, Goodson, and sutton.

we'll most likely have the same thing heading into this season

there is absolutely a reason to carry two fullbacks and four tailbacks.

I don't think you got what I was saying. On paper, it would be 3 RBs, 2 Fbs, and an FB on the PS. Yeah, four of them are Running Backs, but I'm coming from the perspective of simply filling our roster. So again, is Goodson, Jackson, or Sutton gone if you see one having to go?

I think goodson will be cut, he hasn't taken one snap yet due to injury and I don't think he is worth keeping on the squad if he can't even get on the field...Fiametta has been taking almost all of the first team snaps so he is in right now. I also like that kid vaughn...Sutton has also been getting a lot of reps with the second team but that is because of Stewart being out. It is going to be a difficult decision to say the least.

      Joe Person: Panthers really like Mason Graham and Jalon Walker

      I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.

      Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.

      Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
