I thought he showed up on the pass rush. Long shot but I could see him as a 3rd and long pass rusher much like we hoped Burgess was going to be.

Yeah he's bad against the run but every time the Jags dropped back to pass he was there with a hurry and forced at least 2 (maybe 3) of those sacks that came because of his pressure from the edge.

Not much change for my list. Richard is now on the radar, but I'm not quite ready to add him to the list. I think I was hoping for something from Yeatman to make him stand out little more, didn't get that.
In can't recall Malcolm Williams doing anything, so it's hard for me to cross off Butler yet, as tempting as it is. Wilhite was never on my list, so no change there.
Re: The official "If this were the END of preseason, who stays, who goes, thread?
I'm curious. I didnt get the game on TV so I have to watch the replay tomorrow on NFL Network. Nice to have comments ahead of time to know what to watch for, but my curiousity is that I keep hearing Butler and Wilhite played in the second half and were bad, but the Jags completed 2 of 10 passes in the 2nd half and only 11 of 26 all day, with 3/13 3rd down conversions. How bad could any DBs have played?
I'll watch, but it seems to me that if Darius Butler allows a receiver to ever catch a pass on him, that is enough to say he sucked.

I'm just keeping 4 CBs on my roster. I think in 2010 the Pats kept 4 CB most of the season. None of the CBs on the roster besides the locks seem worthy of a roster spot.

3rd down pass rusher is an important position, and run defense isn't really a requirement.
The added advantage is if the guy is only in for 2 and 10, 3rd and long and any 2 minute drills he will be very fresh all day.
Re: The official "If this were the END of preseason, who stays, who goes, thread?
If the CB isn't in position to make a play, and the ball is thrown poorly or dropped, that doesn't mean the CB did his job. It was also the first half, and on kick coverage.

Butler and Wilhite were around the vicinity but not nearly close enough to be considered tight coverage. Reason why the Jags had poor pass statistics was because either the receivers dropped the ball (which happened at least 3-4 times) and also their QBs missing open receivers.

I think you hit on the position of some of the posters on this board. Pat's give up a first down, they suck, pass completed against them - suck, lose a game, BB sucks, draft pick isn't all pro after rookie season - BB sucks, rookie sucks. Of course, the other team sucks, couldn't possibly be worthy of executing successful plays. They think this is college football - OU against the Little Sister of the Weak and Poor.
