I liked Fish better but whatever! That's a six week minimum place holder. Why not use it on someone who might actually do something for you? And I totally think Fish would have been better!

Why? Yes, they were both on the 2nd team and I guess I was focused on Kalis' play to see how he would do to backup (replace?) Lauvao, but I never saw anything from Catalina that said anything other than a guy in a jersey. I don't get that. Jeremy Sprinkle making the roster but Robert Davis getting cut? Even if you pencil in injuries to Reed and Paul, why keep four TEs? What did Sprinkle show in the preseason that made you think he wouldn't survive waivers? As others have pointed out, we have Pyror, Crowder, the equivalent of a British sports car in Doctson (brilliant looking vehicle but always in the shop (*)), The Practice Superstar, and "the guy who made more plays in camps than the rest of the WRs combined but everyone thought he was going to get cut." You kept a 4th TE in comparison to that crew? Who the eff is Stefan McClure and how did he steal that spot from Fish?! (*) I'm thinking, until further notice, Doctson should have the nickname of Jaguar (got to pronounce it the British way "Jag-u-wahr") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MKnight82 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Pretty standard to keep 4 TEs when you don't carry a FB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(*) I'm thinking, until further notice, Doctson should have the nickname of Jaguar (got to pronounce it the British way "Jag-u-wahr") I can understand the Catalina decision. guy can play both guard and tackle. at least they got rid of the bama bust. Kalis was strictly a guard and my hope is they sign him to PS and call him up when Cement feet shows again and again he's not an NFL player. Sprinkle- the only blocking TE we have and by far the best run blocker. didn't hurt he was a higher draft pick. The Davis decision is penny wise pound foolish. they signed quick and kept him bot to look foolish in free agency as he is terrible. no clue on mcclure or fish. my shocker was Lanier who hasn't shown he can play in the nfl. I think he may actually be worse against the run than Nancy aka Preston (yes Im aware they play different positions). He needs at least another year on PS but he is Doug's boy. 9 of 10 draftees make it. Funny, you don't even need training camp or preseason games because 95% of roster was predicted in May Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or in the veteran free agent class either for that matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Draper Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 true, but we should all see it for what it is- the NFL using it as a way to keep attention from fan interest and make a few more dollars. I say get rid of the preseason and start playing games like college does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus21 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 The preaseason is literally the only time players can hit from January to August! That's if you are a playoff team! If you want to get rid of the preseason, you have to change the CBA so players can hit in practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dashing202 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Whoa gotta ask where does Dhall fit into this. We have our safeties and corners is he just a nickel guy? He should be released -____- he hasn't had an int for two years no three years and isn't that 4-6 int a year guy any more now if he was I would vouch for him to be on the field z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
