We don't need to see him with carries.

You don't want to see it, I want to see if the little **** can handle the NFL beatdown he'd get there. I hate gimmick players, so he better be dynamite on special teams.

will we get to carry an extra WR in week one in Bowe's absence. Have to come from PS?

Would they be smart to IR Joe McKnight? Let him get that knee fully healed up and see what he can bring next year.

Wouldn't happen. If he feels he's healthy and they tried to IR him, they'd get in big trouble with the NFLPA. He's a year removed from his ACL so he shouldn't need IR and he's been in the league long enough that he wouldn't allow a team to stash him on IR if he feels like he can still play.

Good point.

He's on PUP now though, no? Could they use that as a springboard to IR? And he still gets paid if the team IRs him, correct?

McKnight intrigues me with his potential, especially in an Andy Reid offense. We're pretty good to go at RB, but it would kind of suck if he didn't get a shot with us (and maybe I'm just going full Mecca here, remembering his USC days...).

Yes you are. McKnight is worthless

No way they are cutting Hemingway.

I think Kyle Williams would make it over Wilson. Good value as ST/PR backup as well as slot duties on offense. My longshot hope is for Frankie Hammond to become a beast because he has pretty good measurables.

I'll say this: if we go a whole preseason without seeing Bray get to sling it once, I will become quite upset.

They gave him a whole quarter last week and squandered it by making him hand off the ball 80% of the time.

Warning to everyone in this thread, inccluding the OP: they're likely playing the 1s all 1st half, and 2s all 2nd.

You're not going to see a lot -- if any -- of Bray and Murray.

I don't think we see any Murray this prreseason. I'm guessing they are hiding him.

They'll probably mix it up with Daniel and Bray. Bray will at least get a shot against the 3s.

The 3s will hardly play, is my point.

Normal preseason protocol for the 2nd week is that the starters get all of the 1st quarter and a series or two in the 2nd quarter. They, likely, won't play the entire first half unless there are long, sustained drives.

The twos do get extensive work thereon after, but we should see the threes late in the game, or mixed in with the twos throughout the latter half of the 3rd and 4th quarter.

With the Chiefs situation in making a decision at QB, they might wait to let Bray and Murray play extensively in Week 4, that I would concede, but it would be nice to see both get some action this week because they aren't getting any in Week 3.
