I thought the kid looked pretty good last week against the Rams.

I'm optimistic that Vinnie, Ball and Warren all make the final roster based on their camp performances thus far. The safety position is awfully crowded.

Ryan said he is going to employ a 5 safety system. I could even see one more making it on the bench or PS.

Sunseri was all over in the Rams game, going at full speed for a rookie that has to be tough not knowing exactly where he should be and trying to grasp the playbook. I liked what I saw out of him in that game and think he will only get better the more he plays.

Excited to watch him play again.
