In BB's interview today (5:15 pm, WEEI), he let it be known that there will likely be more moves to come.

If O'neil pans out, and the rookies play like they've been playing it should be a good season. Thank god for a good draft this year.

I'm looking forward to seeing the young guys especially. There's a good chance he won't be active for the game, but Guyton should be fun to watch on ST with his size and speed.

With Guyton's ability we may see more of him than just on ST.

Since Hobson is gone, I'm wondering who the 3rd ILB will be in the Brushci rotation? It would have to be Guyton, no? He'll get live reps which will really speed up his development.

Seems likely.

The only thing I'd really like to see is Neal back and Seau to replace Alexander. I think we have enough ST mavens that Alexander needs to start contributing to the ILB rotation.

BB: Well, it has been a busy few days since we last got together. We had a lot of roster transactions. It is that time of year. I am sure there will be more before the week is over.

Not necessarily. A. Thomas could move inside with Woods or Crable lining up outside.
