10 Questions! Somebody straighten me out!

1. On a team with weak LB's, it appears our two best LB's are competing for the same spot. Why not pick one to play MLB and move the other to WLB or even SLB? That way we'd have our two best LB's on the field at the same time? Doesn't that seem logical?

2. If Jonathan Sillivan was a 4th round pick would he still be on this team?

3. Why was Donte Stallworth returning punts at practice the other day? Could it be that Michael Lewis is on the way out (trade or cut) and they want to cover all their bases just in case. What do Stecker, Stallworth, Craver, Henderson, Jenkins, Gardner and Pathon all have in common? They can all return kicks and/or punts pretty well.

4. Why did Haslett claim everyone's job is up for grabs except Deuce's? That appears to be playing favorites even if it is true. Is Deuce's psyche/ego too fragile to be called out?

5. Do Deveron Harper and Monty Montgomery have a better chance of making this club because they both can play CB and Safety? Will one of them take Steve Gleason's spot?

6. Lamont Hall is an excellent blocking TE and an excellent special teams player. If we keep him (4 TE's) we'll only keep 6 WR's. If Crowell has truly returned to form its a no-brainer he makes this team.
Who's the 6th WR? Michael Lewis, Talman Gardner, Derrick Lewis?
Or do we cut Hall and keep 7 WR's?

7. Is the 3rd RB battle truly just between Lamar Smith and Ki-Jana Carter? What about Ronnie Jenkins and Tavian Banks? Do they have a shot? How about Dan Curran as a RB?

8. Will this new turf we're getting this year give Carney the same problems he had last year.

9. If we keep 7 LB's, will Bockwaldt make the cut? Or will they keep the aging veteran Darren Smith?

10. If we keep 8 DL, who gets cut? I assume we'll keep 4 DE and 4 DT.
Last DE- Melvin Williams, Willie Whitehead, Tony Bryant?
Last DT- (assuming Leisle makes the team) Kenny Smith? Kendrick Allen? Howard Green?
