Camp Stock up/ Camp Stock Down

Cruize · 07-30-2014, 01:54 PM

If Toon can't make the team with Colston, Cooks and Stills as the only locks at WR, then he simply doesn't have the ability to make it in the NFL. As far as White goes, I look at his ability to play safety as a positive for him. White will make the roster. His being able to contribute at multiple positions means the other guys on the bubble in the secondary are really going to have to step up.

Now White and Champ man the middle.

Champ gets the quicker slot

White goes strong side (TE) and has running back duties.

I today's pass happy NFL it is weird to be using nickle and dime as much as it is SS and FS.

There is no such thing as a pure SS any more. same goes for CB now.

Or we could have Kenny, Bush, and Byrd instead of our 4th CB. Our 3rd safety is better than some teams starting safeties.

I may be excited the most by the safety battle. We have pretty darn good looking depth there.

From what I've read Champ Bailey is having a tough time in coverage and looking completely average. Yeah he forced a fumble a few days ago but he's not the Champ of old in coverage. Patrick Robinson looks to have the #2 CB spot locked up if he doesn't get hurt.

I've read quite a few reports that Bailey is having a great camp and one report that said he may not even make the team.

Gotta wonder if the positive ones are just puff pieces trying to get us hyped up or if the negative one was just an author trying to make a splash with a headline grabber.

i see were your going here and i see the saints using packages like this. but when it comes to the secondary i always count them healthy for at the most 14 games. they drop like flies back there. minor ankles knees shoulder concussions and such seems to sideline them for at least two games. good year is not having the nagging injuries over lap.

you can never have enough good secondary players on your team
