He had three preseason games with "zilch" because they have been bringing him back slowly. They had him on a pitch count to this point. His limited appearances were basically just getting him real time snaps. He was only targeted twice in the first three games and one was the "no touch" rocket from Hill from eight yards away in traffic.

Now it's time for him to get ramped up to start making an impact in the first regular season game.

I liked what I saw. It’s encouraging. I still doubt he makes it through the season. When is the last time Payton took a gamble on an injured player and got a return? Besides Brees he doesn’t have a great track record.

Max Unger, for one.

Shockey was high risk but that was more attitude. I will eat absolute crow but I see him making appearances like Snead right now like last year for a while. Smith is ready and will fight to the death for balls because that is what he does and what we need. Also downfield blocking where we make our money. CM is not ready for that level of violence.
