I like McDougald. I think he gets put on practice squad, just because they're overloaded with guys at Safety. I actually don't think Brown is nearly as bad as some people have claimed in the past.

Abdullah, I thought, had an outstanding preseason. And I really wish he was in line to replace Kendrick Lewis, even though I wish we had someone speedier than both of them.

Move along. Nothing to see here.

So Wylie or dex are better?

Wylie was an excellent punt returner in college. More importantly, the only thing Hammond can do is return punts. That's it. Not worth wasting a spot on a guy like that unless he's Devin Hester.

I'd rather Wylie or Dex because they'll contribute to this team beyond punt returns.

Do you honestly believe that Wylie will have any contribution to this team other than a returner?

He's not going to be playing on the offense unless there are a few injuries. If he makes the team he'll be the 5th or 6th WR, AKA designated to Special Teams.

Yes, he's going to be a gunner, and he's going to be damn good at it. Same reason Jalil Brown is a lock for this roster.

I don't see how you can take from one measly return that they are worse than Hammond.

Wylie and Dex have both had long returns just like the one Hammond got last night. Hammond's nothing special, and is 1/10th the receiver that those other two guys are.

He can't be expected to reasonably contribute on offense. Put him on the practice squad if you want, but he should NOT go on the 53 man roster. There are so many more worthy candidates for the final roster than him.

The team still has lots of questions but the most positive thing to take away from this pre season is that the team looks muuuuuccccch better coached.

Was it Hammond Jr. that muffed that punt early in the game last night? I said "Well that guy just got himself cut". He made some plays after that though, so who knows?

that's my take.

Defense gave up the fewest point in the AFC in Preseason. They played lights out last night and except for a few big plays and some field goals we pretty awesome.

Special teams- Dustin nailing 70 yard punts, Succop-Perfect, Big returns, FG block- just amazing what a good coach can do.

Offense- can't seem to pick up a blitz and getting man handled off the line. Chase took 11 sacks in roughly 5 quarters? 2 straight last night in the red zone.

First back to back preseason wins since 2006. :thumb:

I bet you that time line is in Andy Reids frame of thinking as well......

That's pretty good considering the field position the Chiefs started with in the first half of the steeler game. Considering the 4th and short that wasn't picked up and the running out of the end zone repeatedly and getting stopped at the 10-15.

That's damn impressive.

Abdullah had a lot of Big plays. Lewis should be cut. Brokieoki- cut Wylie-cut-didn't show much at all and is hurt again.

I hope Zombo makes the team- had an INT last night and was all around the ball again. Martin with the sack/strip/fumble recovery-might have made the team with that. Harris-cut-slow and can't catch, needs to go back to basketball. Daniels-Cut-we can get much batter off the waiver wire-Brady Quit was better and took less sacks.

I seriously doubt it.

I'm pretty sure he's looking at Alex Smith as a 5 year minimum to 8 year maximum type of guy.

Bray was an UDFA that needs some serious work on his technical skills before he can ever be considered a starting NFL level QB. Now, working with Reid and behind Smith, who is very sound technically, is a good thing for Bray, but he was not brought in to be starter in three years. No way, no how.

If I could go onto the forum, I could show you a post that I made almost EXACTLY LIKE YOURS, just replace the name Bray, with Kaepernick..

And Bray looked better in his first pre season than Kaepernick did.

The support around Bray is going to speed his development right along. It would not shock me in the least if Alex Smith struggles in his two years here that Bray could be the qb in 2015.

Not one bit. And im the biggest Alex Smith guy here. But I understand the business, and I understand Andy Reid, and John Dorsey. They have both proven that they will ship out a qb if he isn't cutting it.

Brian Brohm, Brett Favre, Donovan McNabb, Kevin Kolb.

I love Alex Smith......but if Bray becomes a true professional, works hard, hits the books, hits the film takes the coaching, he is a special special kid.

Now im crushing on two qbs. Gotta write to dear abbey I guess.
