1. It was indeed not a dress rehearsal. Interested to see how JG comes out of this rough night. The one thing his coaches raved about is that he doesn't let yesterday in today. If thats still true then it was good to have this reality check in preparations for Arizona. And it was good he saw TB in action going after him. Somebody wrote a nice pst about how theres different energy on the field with all 11 when TB is leading and hope JG can steal some of that.
2. The core team looks very good, D beautiful, magic. The new core guy is Valentine. Together with Brown they were monsters. Unbelievable. Kuhn and Knighton at the moment don't seem necessary. Flowers another great night rushing. Jonathan Jones to me is a core ST. I just can't see him cut. They couldn't even start returning on account of him. Coleman solidified his spot. Cyrus in the core as well with returns. I didn't see much of Harbor and I saw a lot of Develin. A lot of positives from A group.
3. It' s quite a significant drop off after that also with CBs. Grissom and Rufus are hardly moving anywhere and when they finally do they miss the tackle. A. Johnson showed energy but with little success tonight. Humber intereting option but on the too deep team. On the other hand Elandon Roberts is showing up, but can easily start on PS - he did look strong tonight..
4. OL not too bad. Karras needs some more time so I guess Kline will start week 1. They gave a lot of reps to Barker so maybe he is in the mix. Waddle looked good.
5. The guys that will probably make the team but don't understand it: Freeny is the only big LB after High and Collins but he looks like a statue. He looks even more lost in this new frenetic D looks. Again White is lost against a great D. Dobson likely makes it but I just cannot be sold on him. Maybe just babysits for Mitchell. Cameron Fleming I don't see much there. And Jordan Richards is too weak, always around never there.
6. The guys I really wouldn't like to see cut: J Jones, KGH, DJ Foster, Derby, Karras.
It would be really ironic to lose Foster with our RB group.
