Brandon Jenkins has a lot of pass-rushing talent, but if he doesn't contribute on special teams I don't think Jay will keep him around. The alternative, Rob Jackson, isn't the best pass rusher, but he's good in coverage and run defense. I think the Jenkins-Jackson battle(assuming we keep 4 OLBs) will be a tight one.

Josh LeRibeus - I think that Josh has a lot of talent. In the past, he's hurt himself by not being in good shape. But now it seems to me that he has found the motivation to keep in shape. I'd like to see him compete for a starting job this season.

Phillip Thomas - I really wanted him in the draft and we got him. He was an elite playmaker in college and I think he can become a very good NFL player. He might even become a starter some time this season.

I too am rooting for these players.

Assuming he's back to where he was health-wise, I think Richard Crawford makes the roster fairly easily. He was looking like a solid corner last year, plus he has the punt returning thing working for him. Just a guess at the CB group: Hall, Amerson, Porter, Crawford, Breeland, and Biggers. Minnifield goes back to the PS.

LeRibeus makes it too. I think he's got some talent as well, he's versatile and nasty, and the depth along the line isn't awe-inspiring, especially now with Hurt showing up out of shape.

As for Thomas, he's pretty much a roster lock. I think he'll earn quite a bit of playing time this season.

One guy i really want to watch is Chris Chester. How do you come off your best year as a pro and then have possibly your worse? I have a feeling he can return to form

I'm interested to see how Santana does in camp. He's definitely a bubble player at this point in his career, and he'll have to impress Gruden. With Hank's return in doubt he's got a better shot, but we'll see. Moss usually bounces back with a very good camp every time his job is in jeopardy, but at age 35, I dunno.

I'm also interested to see hints of how Haz will call the defense without Shamahan looming over his shoulder, to see if he's truly set free. I do think this is Rak's "breakout" year (if it can be called that, I'm one of the folks who think he's already played at a high level, albeit with some consistency issues), so we should hear some reports of Rak dominating camp. Play calling from Haz will contribute to that a lot.

I'm assuming almost all of the QB's first few days of camp are rough. At this time of year the defense will be ahead of the offense. Non issue.

Keim needs to start his daily report with:" "No injuries today." Someone want to take that up with him?

That's what I want out of training camp.

I think you can't be indefinitely suspended if you want to be eligible for comeback player of the year.

I mean if you are trying to crack a joke at least indicate it somewhat so I won't bother wasting my time to respond. Either way w/e.

Personally I'm looking forward to just seeing a contact sport again. Baseball's ok to pass the time but I miss football. I'm looking forward to seeing how our defense does this year, I'm still not sold on them yet.
