BJGE, I still maintain he's a JAG and just about any UDFA could step in and give the same production. I'm pretty sure I could've racked up some yardage with those holes last nite.
McGowan, IMO, has a pretty clear path to the 53. He's been showing up with steady tackling on both defense and special teams, and a 4th safety who's a core special teamer is easy to carry. He's been one of the biggest pleasant surprises of camp to me.
Law Firm...eh. I can't see them carrying more than 4 RBs, so unless somebody else is injured he's just an odd man out. For all the announcers' oohing and ahhing, I saw a performance of 13 touches for 50 yards and a bad fumble. He'd be a perfectly respectable #4 RB, but is he really better than Morris?
BJGE put the ball on the ground last night....I do like him, but thats not a good thing when trying to make the 53.
Its not that he put the ball on the ground, its that he put the ball on the ground in a situation where even a 10 yard loss would have still won them the game.
Maroney and Morris have legit injury issues. Faulk is not an every down back. Taylor is an oldie, but a goodie. Still, he's only here for a year - likely, anyway.
I think law-Firm has a shot, honestly. His likely competition is Morris, but if he's heading into the season dinged up, who knows?
I guess it would be enlightening to see him against some first stringers.
Has Morris practiced yet? Is he still eligible for PUP list?
mcgowan reminds me of Cherry when we won our first superbowl.
On the other hand, with Faulk, Morris and Taylor being 33, 32, and 33 respectively I would not be surprised to see something drastic occur to keep the youth infusion. We have an older running back contingent and Maroney, to this day, still seems to carry a question mark.
Speaking of Faulk, he looked terrific in limited action.
