I truly wonder what Araiza could do with a 25mph wind behind his back. He could probably kick from the goal line and land it on the 10.

Where we drafted Araiza was a steal.

U/O how many no punt games this season? 2?

In my opinion, Hodgins pretty much secured a spot with his play. He’s been playing well. Shakir handling punts today pretty much answered my question. If Tavon doesn’t see the field over the next couple of preseason games, he’s probably getting cut. So that makes me wonder who would make it over him, Crowder? Today was the last straw for me with Kumerow. The guy had a key fumble and just can’t contribute enough on that side of the ball. I would not be surprised to see him get cut in favor of Hodgins.

Well it is pretty sad that a first round pick needs to wear oven mitts to keep him from grabbing WRs. Flag or burnt toast isn’t a good look. Hope he improves.

Well I heard they have an open role for the movie Try Hard.

Bills beat them so badly that they beat the color out of the photos taken that game.

This, I will never get it. I can understand wanting to drive and take your sports car out for a cruise sober or taking it to a track and racing the wheels off, but driving when you know you are having a good time? So dumb.

Kumerow is the likely cut. I just don’t see how he makes it this year. We have to many new guys or guys that have made improvements. Diggs Davis McKenzie Shakir Hodgins The last spot or spots, is going to come down to (Crowder, Tavon, Kumerow) . Given that we need a PR and Tavon is currently #1 on the depth chart, it’s hard to see a path for Kumerow given that Hodgins is the backup behind Davis. I would not be surprised to see Beane attempt to send Kumerow back to GB.

Given that Shakir is on the depth chart inside with Hodgins as the #2 outside receiver after Davis, it’s safe to assume that nothing has changed in their assessment.

Most of them have been playing well. Hodgins is listed as Davis’s backup. It’s going to be interesting to see what direction they go.

But why should we hamstring ourselves? Wouldn’t you want the best returner we can get so we can actually get good return yards? All of that just to protect Crowder?

McD currently has Tavon as #1 PR. So we go with a rookie returning punts in critical times? That’s ballsy.

Right now, this is what I think. Diggs Davis McKenzie Shakir Hodgins Tavon If we do keep 7, I would rather keep Crowder than Kumerow. Who returns punts? Shakir?

Agreed on Shakir. I never advocated for him to go to PS. I’ve said I wouldn’t be surprised if he gets the IR tag, but I would doubt it because he can contribute right now. A lot of people think we will keep Crowder because we need a back up for McKenzie, but honestly I don’t think that is needed and McKenzie has shown enough to trust him. I don’t see how we have space for Crowder when we have other needs, like who is doing PR. I supposed you could keep Crowder and cut Tavon, but that would mean you are trusting a rookie in Shakir to handle PR in a big time situation. That’s a big ask. The only reason why I think Tavon has a sneak advantage to a roster spot is because he is a good punt returner and can play slot if needed. Something Crowder does not offer. I don’t see how Kumerow makes the team over Austin. If he does, who are you having returning punts?

So who returns punts? Shakir? Because he’s #2 behind Tavon, and #3 is likely getting cut because I doubt he makes the team if we keep Taiwan.

It’s more than that though, recent roster reveals have been an eye opener with Hodgins as the backup behind Davis. It’s weird that he would be listed there and not make the final roster.

Do we still feel this way? Austin is listed as #1 PR on the depth chart. This year is going to be insane when it comes to choosing. I think Kumerow is screwed now with Hodgins playing well. Shakir is listed as #2 PR, but do we trust a rookie to do that over Austin who’s experienced? How do we keep 7 WRs if we keep 6CBs with Benford playing well?

Honestly, this has been the most confused I’ve been in a while when it comes to the direction of our final roster. We could go so many ways with this depending on what McD values the most. I agree, I just don’t see how Shakir is left of the roster, although I guess it’s possible he gets IR if for whatever reason McD wants Crowder. I’m not sure Crowder is a lock like some people list him as. I agree with you that he’s on the bubble and could be a cut. Hodgins is behind Davis on the depth chart, I mean it could mean nothing, but I just find that as an eye opener. It could mean nothing, but who knows. I would have to imagine a punt returner is more important than a ST player like Kumerow. I just don’t see how he makes the team unless McD feels like McKenzie can do punt returns. Because of that, I have Austin higher chances of making the team over Kumerow. I doubt Benford gets to go to PS either with how much it appears McD likes him, which is another monkey wrench this year. That likely means 6 CBs is a lock. Which means sadly 6 WRs is likely unless like you said, Taiwan gets the ax, but that appears unlikely either. This year is so weird in a good way. Benford, Shakir, and Hodgins have made these camp decisions very difficult. As of now, I wouldn’t be surprised if this is the 6 we roll with. Diggs Davis McKenzie Shakir Hodgins Austin

So Hodgins has been emerging and is listed behind Davis on the depth chart which is an eye opener. Tavon is listed as #1 punt returner. There are going to be a lot of tough decisions to come I feel like when it comes to deciding how makes the roster for WRs sake. We only kept 6 WRs last year and 1 IR. Do you think we still go 6 or is this the year we go 7? Hodgins has really thrown a wrench in all this. I have to believe that Crowder might be a surprise cut, as I don’t see Shakir getting cut or PS designation. It’s possible he might get the IR tag. Especially if McD determines that he really wants a player like Tavon for punts or a Kumerow for ST. I honestly don’t know what they do now.
