Theoretically you could have Morton, Haskins, Larison, Chism on the "punt team"... get the special teamers on the other team out there... then check into an actual offensive formation made up of special teams players and be able to execute because the punter is a QB, and have a decent success rate because they're going up against ST guys and the chance to substitute has already passed.
No Swinson or Jacas out there i think... done for the night? I have to say.. Jacas was more of a mixed bag than i would like. Swinson seems more consistent play to play.
Jacas showed more upside I think. For a rookie who missed OTAs expecting a lot seems unrealistic. You’re comparing a raw rookie with a guy who has been in the league for a full year so has a big advantage on his development. It would be really bad for Swinson if he were not visibly ahead.
Honestly there is a competitive angle there - if you are in a situation where you're looking for a shorter punt anyway or don't need a lot of hang time, you can have your QB go out there as the punter. The other team will always need to play off a little bit because they'll be alert to the potential for a trick play. And the QB can watch for mistakes, mismatches, etc and check into a trick play or an offensive play.
QB - meh. Devito is showing he is an okay back up QB right now... but if Maye goes down for 4 games do i feel good about it? Absolutely not. He doesn't feel like an elite back up.
WR - Chism, Williams and who cares. No one else is even close... no point talking about anyone else... I don't think either makes the PS.
RB - Larison can catch. That is clear. No one is impressing me too much as a runner for that 3rd spot. Larison gives you more STs. So he may have the egde over Miller and the rest.
TE - Arkin has been i think okay blocking? Would love to hear someone weigh in on this.
OL - Lomu has been good. Crownover is raw but i like the potential obviously. Can't teach size. The interior has been better since the first drive... but it has not been good... it is hard to tell if it is 2 guys making all 3 look bad or 3 guys just getting beat. However they have stepped up a bit at times to make it competitive since early. I will wait to say more till it can be broken down. At times i don't even know whose playing on the inside for sure.
DTs - Yeah... Just a size mismatch. They may need to sign a big body. They don't have the beef to match up with Philly. Nightmare match up.
Edge - Not happy here.... Swinson has been most consistent. Jacas has flashed a bit. But Jacas failed to hold the edge too often. Outside of them i have notice no one pop.
LB - Has anyone here been good? IDK.
CB - Obviously Prunty and Vildor are the stories.... both should make the roster. You don't cut CBs who can be a decent back up.
S - Pettus to me is showing why he is ahead of Brown.. I think he has played better than him. Can Sander's take Brown's or Pettus's spot? Possibly.
