2018 Training Camp Thread - Day 8 {The GOAT turns 41 Today!} (8/3/18)

There's no reason if he continues to have a good camp that he can't beat out Jordan Richards.

It's really Travis, Pleasant, Richards and possibly even Grigsby competing for the 4th safety/special-teamer spot.

Fixed that for you.

Seriously it's not that hard.

Id say more than one from this list makes the team

Giving up on the #nofun?




(i want Ernie back on the field pronto cause BB is obviously loosing it..)

 

[Ring 6]

with situation at hand . good to see Burkhead more and more in the mix for PR
pity no Patterson

Hogan is an intriguing pr option too.

Hogan is an intriguing pr option too.

Would be nice to move away from using your starters as returners though.

I don't have an opinion on Travis haven't really noticed him. Pleasant on the other hand had me looking him up a few times nothing special just saw something small that made me go who is that guy? Then I'd look and it was Pleasant 3 or 4 times and you start to think maybe this kid is ok.
Grigsby is a decent STs LBer who maybe can work into a role with the D but there are other backers I like better.

These knick knack injuries are already piling up.

Ticky tack perhaps?

Of the four, Pleasant has the most extensive resume (78 games + 5 playoff games in the past 5 seasons with HOU), and is also the oldest, turning 30 in December. In addition to his ST work, he's put up 116 TT, 2.5sk, 17 PD, 3 INT and 1 FF in those 5 seasons, averaging about 230 ST snaps and 230 D-snaps per season

Richards is a distant second with 3 years experience (41 games + 5 post-season).

Grigsby, who's built like a SS/LB hybrid and had some college experience in the "star" role at Pitt, has appeared in 11 games in his 2 seasons, with a total of about 200 ST snaps and the 14 D-snaps he got with the Pats in wk-17 last season.

Travis, of course, has only 2 seasons of OTA & Camp, and a season on the Psquad.

Paddy-whack?

Oh Pele... What a great player... What a horrible person

Ticky tack perhaps?

Give a dog a bone.

Some ST info for bottom of the roster adjustments..


The front line of the first group to run punt return reps included from left to right King, Marquis Flowers, Richards, Grissom, Nicholas Grigsby and Brandon Bolden. JC Jackson and Rowe worked on the outside. Chung, McCarron, Rex Burkhead and Berrios took turns on returns.

 

[Dragda]

Coincidence? I think not.

Our female goat had a baby boy. I named him Brady. He’s a beautiful animal.

 

[Joker]

My turtle had a baby...I named him Mo Lasses after that famous Jete LB that ushered in the current 20 year reign of King Brady
