I agree. Who can and cannot clear waivers and get to the PS has to be a factor in the final roster spots along with next years
depth slots chances.
Hodgins:
As to Hodgins I would think the coaches (and most of us fans) would agree that he deserves more snaps with the 2s in camp
and in the next 2 preseason games. Another thing to watch for is any ST reps he may be taking in camp/games. While ST is important
I would also just add that IF 7 WRs are kept at least one probably won't dress. I would have no problem with Hodgins being kept for
his pass catching depth skills vs him getting lost to waivers. He needs to stay healthy the rest of the off season!
Kumerow:
While I wanted to see him succeed at his primary position (WR) I have to say his WR play is not very good. He got his chance last
year to prove that and the result was in 116 offensive snaps with 2 catches on 6 targets for 28 yards. His WR play in the remaining
games must be taken into consideration as to whether he makes the team.
I say all this assuming Jones is a lock. I refuse to believe that one year of good ST play (that is all Kumerow has had) guarantees him
a roster spot. If the coaches think as I do, Kumerow has to prove his worth as a WR too. These bubble players know this better than
we do so these 2 guys have to know they are probably in a fight for that spot.
I'm looking forward to seeing who wins this challenge.
