I think they have more upside than Jones with one year left on his contract. but if you are colbert, you also have made other questionable decisions which this could be added to Dobbs should stay, obvious to me. Adeniyi better make the team, if not, then thomas as well. Just almost got the TD as I typed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelcurtain29 Posted August 31, 2018 Author Share Posted August 31, 2018 If Thomas doesn't make this roster; I'm fighting someone. This dude looks like he may have been another gem this franchise has discovered at LB. Not to mention he looks like someone that could be in sub packages as well. Sure looks to me like he has a boatload of potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should make the roster (if I was to decide): Adeniyi Thomas Dobbs Farewell to these players, thanks for your time and best of luck: L.Jones Chickillo Berry perhaps Matakevich (Thomas) Thomas would be the ILB but possibly OLB at times. The dual purpose LB that saves a roster spot for someone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CKSteeler Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Dobbs is better than Landry Jones was for at least his first three years. And he's only on his second pre-season. He really didn't get a fair shake. It wasn't until last year that Jones even looked respectable in the pre-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelcurtain29 Posted August 31, 2018 Author Share Posted August 31, 2018 I can't see Thomas playing OLB. He's definitely too small in that regard. He'd work out at ILB for sure. Adeniyi looks like another gem. Definitely needs to get a little bigger, but that dude works his *** off every play. He just finds ways to make plays no matter what. Our LB situation went from being in shambles, to surprisingly having some potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be on the PS at the very least. He looks like he could be a fine EDGE and we could definitely use it. They definitely need to think about both he and Thomas making it.

I hope they carry 5. I'd love to see Adams and Ola. Chick can kick rocks for all I care, but they'll keep him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chieferific Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Why in the world do you keep Rogers who won't be available until week 8 over one of these impressive young guys? Even at his best he was JAG. I don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VigilantZombie Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Hoping Rogers gets cut along with Jordan Berry and they sign Shane Lechler. I also hope Ridley and Chickillo get cut. Ladarius Gunter worth kicking the tires on to replace Coty Sensabaugh? Carolina just cut him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VigilantZombie Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Landry Jones Stevan Ridley Justin Hunter Eli Rogers Anthony Chickillo LJ Fort Coty Sensabaugh Jordan Dangerfield Jordan Berry Those are the names I prefer to be among the cuts. I dont expect to see any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcash4 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Rogers is going to be on the pup - he won’t count against the 53. You can carry him as an insurance clause until you have to make a decision later. No need to cut...yet. Matakevic, Forte, and Chick cannot all make this roster together. I usually argue for depth guys that play specials teams, but this year we have a bunch of guys that can do it - unlike last year when we had Harrison, Gay, Sensebaugh, Hunter, and Rogers who were all backups who didn’t play ST. There are too many guys that, seemingly, have positional potential that none of those three have. 1 or 2 of them will make the roster for purposes of special teams, but they can’t all three take spots....I’ll go ballistic (internally).

Good to know. I reacted hastily. Hopefully we see something out of the young guys and they make the right decision when Rogers comes back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
