pat Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 I'd keep no more than 3, but if your starting two go down - is there really a difference between a third that's always on the roster and some bum you get off the street in week 9? Isn't that basically when we signed Reynaud last year? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 QJ is the problem. He's a complete waste of a spot. If they carry 4 TEs that means either Rusty or Preston goes in my opinion. If they want to carry Preston and Doyle then Battle, Parmalee, and Reynaud have to go to make the numbers work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question is whether you can find a bum who can learn the playbook and contribute immediately. MM made the comment that Battle can play teams, that's why I think he makes it.

Guest Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 The question is whether you can find a bum who can learn the playbook and contribute immediately. Do you recall if Greene is any good in pass protection? That is usually where FA RBs are an issue. That is one reason why I like Battle as the 3rd RB.

IowaOiler Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Preston has already made the team. This team has more apparent talent at nearly every position that we have had in almost two decades. It is a welcome change to be worried about other teams poaching our players, rather than scouring other team's camps and looking for who they might cut.

titanruss Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 As a rb, battle beats parmele… ST's have a lot to do with it though. Mike Keith thinks battle will make it FWIW and he's usually right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IowaOiler Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Except defense The defense isn't as stacked with talent as the offense, but compared to many of the years past, they are bounds better. I don't think anyone believes LaMont Thompson, Reynaldo Hill, or Andre Woolfolk would even make this roster, let alone start on Sundays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMJ Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Amazing how that trash probably showed up to camp without a worry in the world, because they were in good with Fisher. What a joke of a regime that was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannynj Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 I'd just keep CJ and Greene at RB Dude, who you kidding? You'd go with (in this order) 1. Greene and Battle 2. Greene and Parmalee 3. Greene and Reynaud 4. Greene and Mooney 5. Greene and Q Johnson 6. Greene and Chris Johnson (gun to your head) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannynj Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 If they do keep Doyle on the roster as I predict they will, would be tough to dress all four but what about a 4 TE set? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
