Preseason Scrubs

He's a WR. And I'm thinking the same thing you are. There isn't room for him here. The guy I'm really keeping an eye on is K Tyler Jones. He could knock Hall out if he does well this summer

They obviously saw something in Dmitri and Christian last year as both were in games at key times late. Not so much Dmitri I guess. He mopped up against that one team I can't remember what they're called. Ft. Worth or Oak Cliff or something.
I think experience will largely win out in this camp. I think Gibbs and Williams know who their guys are at this point and it's just a matter of getting them ready to go.
Special teams will be interesting with kicker and punter.

That wouldn't suprise me a bit. Hall has trouble with kickoffs reaching the 15-20 yard line. Plus, his accuracy just isn't what it was when he came out of NY.

I think Gibbs would be hard pressed to let Hall go for an unproven kicker in the NFL. Hall might not have the distance he once had but he is still a very consistant kicker. If Hall could just get over his injury spell from the past two years we might even see him improve on his distance. They have changed his work out program thinking it might have been the problem. I just think you need a kicker with experence that you know will hold up under the presure of the NFL and game winning kicks.

I just looked up our kick off stats. We were in the bottom quarter for kick off distance. Miami was #1 and averaged about 6 yards longer but on average the returns were about 5 yards more against them. So if you look at all the stats we were about in the upper middle on where the other team started their drives. The only real state that jumped out at me was the Touch Backs and we only had one while Miami had 16 but that means when teams did return the kick they averaged more return yards against Miami.
