Actually at this point he probably is a longshot.

I am not hoping he returns. If we don't resign him its because Gregg thinks he has some potential in some of the young safeties he's brought in. I'm hoping the kids develop.

McDaniel and Amaya are a couple other longshots I'd like to see make the team. Both are probably huge upgrades to special teams also.

Yeah, I agree, I meant he isn't a longshot to play onto the roster if he is signed, but he is a long shot to be signed at all due to the money or as Sharp puts it "the love" that he wants to see.

I'm also pulling for Lorenzen ... didn't realize he was a Iowa kid before playing at UConn. It would be nice to have him around as a more versatile tight end than Humphrey and also as an emergency QB so we can all sleep a bit better at night carrying only 2 QB's on the roster.

At this point with his history of injuries and how stacked we are at RB, I'm gonna say Chris Ivory lol. I know he was a beast last season and there may still be hope for him, but there's been lots of talk of him being put on the PUP list... we saw how that worked out for Sharper last year when his job was swiped lol.

I finally got mine, Mitch King #75. I got to see only a little bit of the game so he stuck out for me.

Will Herring - OK, he's probably not a longshot for the roster, but is somewhat a longshot for a starting spot. I'm hearing/reading he's looked very good at SLB, as does Clint Ingram

Tyler Lorenzen - He's put on about 30 pounds, and Drew said he's one of the most improved players from last year. Could be our #3 TE.
OK, two of mine did pretty well.

I thought King was really putting on a show last night as well. Of course, it was against their 2nd, and 3rd string offense...
