bucsfan333 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 We play Thursday at 7:30pm EST. None of the starters are expected to play. But we've got some good competition to watch out for. McNichols is playing for a roster spot. We've got four or five guys vying for that fifth/sixth WR spot. We've got LBs playing for roster spots. And Siliga/Stevie T are probably fighting for a roster spot. Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravishingone Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Agree this is the McNichols game. Also, this is important for Sefo. If he plays well, he can secure a practice squad. Since I think they carry on 5 LBs on the 53 man roster, a spot on the practice squad is on the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmlgogo Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Wish we had a little more explosion out of our running game. Not saying we necessarily need a star back like Zeke or whatever, just someone who if the o-line does their job and opens a hole, they can take it for more than 5 yards.

Speed is definitely something we lack in the backfield. We have it everywhere else now though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BucsDraftGeek47 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 McNichols is probably going to be cut there i said it shouldnt be a reason why we carry 5 RBs and fullback in alan cross just a mistake on our part drafting a guy when we had so much depth, why cant we get lucky like Seattle and get a guy like Carson who is Legit playing his way to being the lead back in a backfield thats even more stacked than ours (Lacey/Rawls) ?? oh well the only thing i really care for at this point is for one of the DEs to play well, be it Russel/Johnson/idc somebody please step up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure we'll keep him until Dougie comes back. But he's probably gone then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravishingone Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 No 5 WR is up for grab. I think 3 contenders- Huff, Dye, and Reedy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We took turns waking up with the baby. It made it a little easier. But s/he'll get a routine before too long. Also, boy or girl? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
