2 guys look solid again.

Lester and White looked good again to me.

I think both have earned more playing time and need more looks.

If Mickell is healthy this week I still would start Lester.

What do you guys think??

Nope, Lester is too slow for me right now and I like the experience Mikell brings. Mikell was a top 5 safety last season and there's no need to bench him for a rookie. We sweep the south we are sitting pretty. And no, I'm only semi delusional at this point. 1-4, 1-5, and 1-6 I expect to see some changes.

Lester has look good but if mikell is 100% he should start he's a better in the box guy then Lester IMO and Vet experience. Lester still should get plenty of snaps per game

 

 

added-Our Cb situation can't get any worst so white should still get PT, hoping Dockery comes back soon that would make our cb situation slightly better

How many snaps did Melvin White play against the Cardinals?  Cause he either completely shut down whoever he was covering for the entire game or he just didn't play much, cause I think I saw him on the screen on maybe a couple plays against the run...but I never saw him give up any passes unless I just wasn't paying attention.

I say we start Lester, he deserves it.  But knowing Rivera, Lester might fart during a film session and end up in Rivera's doghouse for the next 4 weeks.

I think we found some gems there.  I saw Lester take a bad angle once and it led to a big gainer, (he missed the cutback lane) but he is a ball player.  In addition, I am liking Mitchell at FS.  White I did not see much, but that is a good sign.

I like Lester, and he's done well in Mikell's absence, but at this point in their respective careers, no way I am sitting Mikell on the bench for Lester. He is too slow and stiff  IMHO, and Mikell showed that he could more than hold his own while playing the BIlls. I know what he can do from his solid body of work, and his veteran presence helps stabilize that backfield.

I'd go with Lester, he has a nose for the ball, so to speak. Mitchell it good but seems to draw at least one untimely  penalty every game. Everyone knows that we can't come back from mistakes. 

 

I believe you're thinking Mitchell, but thread is about Quintin Mikell and Lester (though the OP spelled his name wrong)

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
