Cant make the club sittin in the tub..Miller has played well...the coaching staff and local media are raving about him..big strong and fast...he has a future here..

Corrected the Wilson at OLB. Thanks. The talents of Johnson and Miller are close. I like Miller's size more and he's healthy. Plus, since Jordan isn't starting at DE, I think he will be worked in on passing downs at DT, which is where Johnson would have gotten most of his snaps. Either way, it's nice to have some depth with actual talent at DT. Not just a big body. LOL.

I think later today.

I know a lot of teams head coaches are having a press conference around 4 or 5pm announcing their official roster.

Cut down from 90 players to 80 (10 players) by tonight and from 80 down to 53 (27 players) by Sept 1 at MIDNIGHT.

Up until just recently(after the Oakland game), I had no idea who this Miller guy was. So about playing well all offseason, that's the first I've heard of it. I don't think Miller makes the team just because he had two sacks against the Oakland Raiders. I think King is first in the pecking order, followed by Johnson, then Miller... imo.

Just going by training camp reports Papz...Miller has been doing well according to all the reports...now whether he makes it or not who knows..but we need sacks...and no one else is getting any..

We'd be in trouble if we were looking for sacks from our tackles. =/ I find his size very intriguing though.
