Hatters!
I'm buying a Doughty jersey right now!

The thing about Doughty is if Jackson starts turning it on the rest of preseason which he has the ability to do then I think hes gone. Yes, Daughty is a good guy and solid in run support but is a liability in coverage. Willaims has leap frogged him on the depth chart and Gomes has kinda been flying under the radar with a solid camp and first preseason game. Gomes is also a Shanny draft pick and Doughty is not. I Jackson comes to play the next few weeks then his boy Morris will bang the table for him to get a spot. Doughty has no ties to this coaching staff and hasnt done anything in camp to impress.

Doughty will be on the roster. Despite his lacking coverage skills, he's one of the surest tacklers in the NFL statistically. He rarely misses a tackle.

Tanard Jackson, unfortunately has been one of the worst-tackling safeties in the NFL for 3 years. He's missed 43 tackles in the last 3 seasons, with 114 tackles. Look at that ratio! In 2011, Tanard attempted 57 tackles and missed 24 of them!

Reed's decent as a backup. We've just had to use him as a starter though, a role he's not up for.


While looking at stats, D-Hall and Cedric Griffin are two of the better run-stop CBs in the league.

I know Tanard Jackson has some playmaking ability that Doughty lacks, but his tackling stats scare me. I'm hoping someone can really step up to be a solid backup. Whether it's Doughty, Gomes or Barnes, I don't care, but if we're relying on Tanard Jackson to save us, we're going to be cursing a lot this season. He appears to be one of the worst tacklers in the league.

I think you just made the argument not to keep Doughty around. We have two of the best CB's at doing it and the tackling machines that are Fletcher and Riley. Now we need someone to make big plays and cover.

[SkinzWin]

How can we splice Jackson and Doughty together to get Jackson's playmaking ability and Doughty's tackling? Mods, get to work on this.

Keim update on the roster battles

[RGIII]

Competition has proved to be very effective on this team. There will be some tough cuts and a guy or two will likely land with another team. That being said, it seems like more than ever players want to be a part of this organization.

[That Guy]

well, if someone else can play C, they'd cut cook instead, but they aren't keeping 10+ OL and mcrib was picked in the 3rd round, but he wouldn't have been a 3rd round pick for 95% of teams.

[MTK]

Cook isn't making it over Josh L, who by the way has been learning center.

Some other team would sign him off the PS in a second.

[RonnieBurgundy]

The Rib's versatility will carve him a spot.

[DCtoAZ]

I'm so on the fence regarding Banks .. one day I know he won't make it then the next I think well he has a shot and is so sick at returns .. if he could somehow grow (no pun intended) into the role of a WR it could be such a weapon .. my gut tells me he makes the team but it's tough and I think it will push AA out of town.

I get as giddy as a school-girl when he's back to return, but then I remember that he weighs less than my poodle..

If he's used correctly, I think he could be an asset. I'm thinking Option-type scenarios. But as a receiver, he's just far too small. He can't escape if a defender gets a finger on him.

[SkinItup]

Everyone loves Rudy, I mean Banks, because he is an underdog. He has value, but we aren't a deep enough team for him to be just a return specialist. Robinson and Crawford can both return and have added depth value.
