mileena Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 We are allowed to carry 90 players for training camp. We had 77 after the draft, and we added 13 UDFA yesterday. Assuming all the draftees from rounds 1-6 sign, this puts us at 90. So, now that our roster is basically complete, who will be our tentative team captains? For an early guess, I suggest: Offense: Tyrod Taylor, Cordy Glenn, (optional: Lesean McCoy) Defense: Kyle Williams, Preston Brown, (optional: Jerry Hughes) Special Teams: Colton Schmidt
JM57 Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 Swap Glenn and Brown for Wood and Alexander and that's probably it
mileena Posted April 30, 2017 Author Posted April 30, 2017 Swap Glenn and Brown for Wood and Alexander and that's probably it Good call on Wood! I forgot about him because he is so quiet. My only problem on Alexander is that he only been here for one year.
JM57 Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 Good call on Wood! I forgot about him because he is so quiet. My only problem on Alexander is that he only been here for one year. Tenure on the team shouldn't matter, tenure in the league is more important. Alexander is a perfect captain because of the amount of work he's put in to stay in the league for 10 years.

Just like when Brett Favre went to the Jets and Vikings, he was instantly voted a team captain.

mileena Posted April 30, 2017 Author Posted April 30, 2017 schmidt probably isnt making the team Hmmm...a UDFA is going to beat out Schmidt?? Is there another punter on the roster?
Pbomb Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 Hmmm...a UDFA is going to beat out Schmidt?? Is there another punter on the roster? he was the best punter in the draft and lets be honest it wont take much to beat out schimdt, he was terrible.
GunnerBill Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 he was the best punter in the draft and lets be honest it wont take much to beat out schimdt, he was terrible. He was certainly bad in 2016... he had a really good 2015 though. Can he get back to form? Who knows? If he does he is our punter next year.
JM57 Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 Hmmm...a UDFA is going to beat out Schmidt?? Is there another punter on the roster? Schmidt was a UDFA...
Kirby Jackson Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 Hmmm...a UDFA is going to beat out Schmidt?? Is there another punter on the roster? He was supposedly the top punter in the draft. I say Schmidt is maybe 50/50 to beat him out.

BuffaloHokie13 Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 The captains are Tyrod, Wood, Kyle, Alexander, Hyde this is the list I had too
Bill_with_it Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 Likely a high character, high work ethic, group of guys that the coach wants the rest of the team to be lead by/mentor.
Heavy Kevi Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 Hmmm...a UDFA is going to beat out Schmidt?? Is there another punter on the roster? Lol And that's how tons of good punters get to the NFL. To the point where a GM could catch some ribbing for drafting one. I would be shocked if Schmidt makes the team. The captains are Tyrod, Wood, Kyle, Alexander, Hyde Likely list in my mind. Only other people I could see McD even consider would be Shady or Cordy
ganesh Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 Swap Glenn and Brown for Wood and Alexander and that's probably it The best players should be the captain of their side...They should lead by example.... I hope TT becomes that in TC and takes charge.
Blokestradamus Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 He was supposedly the top punter in the draft. I say Schmidt is maybe 50/50 to beat him out. From what I've seen of Rehkow, I'd stack the odds on talent 70/30 in the rookie's favour. Colton might get the nod on seniority, especially with Crossman still at the ST helm.
DriveFor1Outta5 Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 Whoever we can use to troll the opponent. Oh, I forgot Rex is gone.
Augie Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 Captains? Well, whoever used to play for the opposition, of course!
