well they arent sneaking Gray or Draughn on a practice squad they will be plucked immediately

this isnt like putting Quentin Lawrence on the PS for 3 years as Pioli's WR converted to Safety special weapon

It definitely is going to be interesting how the WR pan out. It really sounded like either Kinney or Bellamy has a real shot at making the roster too.

They'll carry 4 RBs.....especially now that McCluster**** has been moved to WR.

[mcaj22]

so they will take up 5 spots just with Hillis, Charles, Gray, Draughn and whatever fullback

and consider the fact they will keep 3 TEs, one as a H back, so Boss, Moeaki and Maneri... that's 8 spots right there for like 2 positions lol

[RustShack]

Not all teams carry FB's anymore..

QB - 3
RB - 4
FB - 1
WR - 5
TE - 3
O-Line - 8

D-Line - 7
LB - 8
CB - 5
S - 4
K/P - 2
LS - 1

That's only 51 players out of 53. You could probably add another to the defensive line. and one more to the WRs.

I think you might be overestimating Draughn's appeal.

we have a dragon on our team?

3,000 yards passing, better TD/INT ratio with no receivers in 2002 and 777 rushing yards in his first year as the man. While Cam Newton achieved his success in an NFL year where many QB's saw their numbers increase by over 900yds.

2010 was the first anf only year that Michael Vick looked like a QB.

It was the first and only time he went through progressions and made reads.

He regressed last year.

In all the years of championship football since the invention of the forward pass, championships have always been won by pocket passers.

Some of them had the mobility to escape pressure and make plays with their legs.

Some didn't.

But they all had one thing in common.



They won with their arms, not their legs.

Don't be surprised if they don't carry a FB and use one of the TE's instead.

5 WR's means Gray or Wylie, most likely don't stay.

Bowe
Baldwin
Breaston
Dex
Copper (special teams)
Wylie (odd man out)

I agree with this.

[petegz28]

Actually using a TE as a FB may lend itself to be an additional weapon for this team if it is Maneri. We know he can block, tonight he showed he can catch and run as well. I mean holy ****, now you have Moeaki or Boss on the line, Bowe and Baldwin out wide with Maneri and Charles\Hillis in the backfield? JFC you can go so many ways with that. Every single one can catch the ball so you can easily come out in a run formation and go all West-Coast on a mother ****er.
