    who we gonna keep as of game 2?

    so'oto is making a difference when he's played. 2 games, 2 big TO's setting up possible wins. :applaud: no practice squad eligibility left, I don't think. has looked better than carter.

    ho jo looks like he can play some football.

    moats looks like he can play also.

    garvin can cover.

    shazier, what a stud.

    LT should be playing like his buddy shazier, but also a stud. get's caught out of position a lot the last two years now.

    Williams a hitter. has missed some tackles though.

    spence= stud also.

    carter- still carter. close but. knows the defense. upside?????

    worilds- looking good, but needs a contract.

    molls- quietly and steadily makes tackles.

    JJ- we need him on the field making plays.

    who's it gonna be?:cool:

    My observations from the game:

    Arthur Moats has not impress me. He looks stiff and did not apply any pressure on the quarterback. His body type reminds me of Alonzo Jackson. Maybe best suited for inside.

    So'oto has made some noise. But we need to see what he does the next two preseason games. Jarvis Jones and Jason Worilds are the starters but we need two backups and so far (other than So'oto) as done anything. It may be Chris Carter and So'oto. Only reason I'm sticking with Carter is because he's knows the defense and no has impressed enough to cut him.

    Howard JOnes is a work in progress. Definitely see him on the practice squad.


    Timmons, Shazier, Spence, Williams, Garvin in the inside
    Jarvis Jones, Jason Worilds, Chris Carter and So'oto on the outside.

    Howard Jones to the practice squad. I know the sign Arthur Moats to a contract but he has not done enough in my eyes. He may stick around because of the contract and So'oto is cut.

    Carter is expendable been here 4 years still don't see the progression. I would rather go with So'oto and HoJo, Moats at OLB.

    Our LB core is heavy on talent & where everyone is checking, slashing, and trying to flow chart 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and so forth. The next pre-season games need to tell the truth.

    When we cut we're going to supply a team or two w/ a LB.

    I think the top 8 are givens....

    Carter, H. Jones, and So'oto. So'oto has forced the TOs. H. Jones has recovered them. Carter hasn't shown anything while not in practice, but somehow is still in position #2. This will be a tough cut.

    This will be a tough one, lots of nice
    looking ball players in this group. May the best man win.Not so sure we will witness the
    winner on TV. Buckle it up it should be interesting.
